PALMER.EDU In memoriam


Enrique Benet-Canut, D.C., CCSP (`66) October 14, 2025


Enrique Benet-Canut, D.C., CCSP (`66) dedicated his life to bringing chiropractic to Mexico, a country that had fewer than 10 chiropractors at the time of his 1966 graduation. Over his 50-year career, he and his wife, Patricia Greg, a practicing attorney, led the effort to dissolve skepticism of the profession and institute three chiropractic schools within Mexico. His induction as a Fellow into The Palmer Academy of Chiropractic in 1990 was a mid-career honor highlighting his fierce leadership and service. He was also honored with gold medals from international sports federations and recognized for his decades of service to Special Olympics athletes. Dr. Benet-Canut is remembered by the Palmer community for his tireless leadership and deep love for his country.
