With great care and recognizing humour truly is the best form of medicine, Dr. Richard Magder brought his unique style of chiropractic care to Shelburne, Ontario in 2016. Prior to starting his life in Shelburne, Dr. Magder had the honour of being named Valedictorian of his graduating class at the prestigious Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College. Throughout the past three years, he has been committed to helping residents of Dufferin County heal their injuries and continue living their highest quality life possible. The end result has been countless awards including the 2017 Best Recent Graduate for all of Ontario, as awarded from the Ontario Chiropractic Association and the 2018 Emerging Business Award awarded from the Dufferin Board of Trade. He has also been named Dufferin County’s favourite Chiropractor in 2017 and 2018 as voted on by readers of the Orangeville Banner. From a business standpoint, his practice, Shelburne Family Chiropractic has demonstrated an increase in patient base month over month. Throughout his time in Shelburne, Dr. Magder has developed many local initiatives including Walk with Doc and Shoes 4 Shelburne. “Doc” also volunteers his time to keep Dufferin County’s only Semi-Pro Hockey team, the Muskies, in tip-top shape, and provides complimentary baseline concussion testing to countless youth athletes to ensure their safety when playing their favourite sports.
Since 2016, Shelburne Family Chiropractic & Wellness Centre has dedicated itself to support and heal Shelburne and Dufferin County by providing a caring chiropractic, wellness centre, and holistic patient experience, while preaching the shared responsibility of health and wellness within the community. With the community’s health and wellbeing always at the centre of everything the clinic does, the staff continues to be heavily involved with establishing new charitable endeavours such as the annual “Walk with Doc”, #Shoes4Shelburne, and the Shelburne Splash Pad Committee. Additionally, Shelburne Family Chiropractic champions a “Think Local” drive both within the clinic and the community. SFCWC hosts monthly local small business owners products within the clinic while also partnering with other local businesses to offer incentives exclusive to Shelburne residents to help stimulate the local economy. Recognized both locally for our work (2018 Emerging Business of the Year DBOT) and provincially, Shelburne Family Chiropractic & Wellness Centre will continue to practice good corporate citizenship for a community that has given back to us significantly.
