Vega Family Clinic celebrated its official grand opening Friday, Feb. 13, 2026, at 100 East 24th Street in Yuma, with Family Nurse Practitioner Ivan Vega leading the new practice. The clinic’s website lists the address as 100 E 24th St, Yuma, AZ 85364, and the clinic is inviting patients to schedule appointments by calling (928) 750-6410.

The clinic’s public materials describe a broad primary care offering for patients of all ages, including routine physicals for adults and children, immunizations and vaccinations, preventive health screenings, weight management, chronic disease management, and acute illness visits. Vega Family Clinic’s site also advertises same-day appointments, that it is accepting new patients, and “accessible care with broad insurance coverage.” Vega said he is looking forward to taking on new patients and that “all insurances and private pay are available.”

Vega Family Clinic announced a partnership with Yuma Senior Living in a press release dated Dec. 2, 2025, which stated the clinic would be “located within Yuma Senior Living” and serve residents as well as seniors throughout the Yuma region. In that release Ivan Vega, NP, said, “I am honored to partner with Yuma Senior Living to bring compassionate, comprehensive care directly to the people who need it most. Our goal is to support healthy aging through accessible, preventive, and personalized medical care.” Deborah Hall, executive director of Yuma Senior Living, added, “Our partnership with Ivan Vega and his team reflects our continued commitment to innovative, resident-centered care... By bringing a trusted healthcare provider directly into our community, we are removing barriers to care and ensuring our residents—and the greater senior population of Yuma - have convenient access to high-quality medical services.”

Online notices indicate the Vega Family Clinic took over operations from the Amistad Clinic. The Amistad Clinic website displays a notice that “The Amistad Clinic is now The Vega Family Clinic under the ownership of Ivan Vega, NP” and tells former Amistad patients to call (928) 750-6410 to schedule appointments. The Amistad site also retains legacy content stating it served patients “over these past seven years” and listing services that included HIV treatment, telemedicine, and aesthetic medicine, as well as a prior provider named William B. Amistad, Jr., MSN, FNP, AAHIVS.

Patients and community partners at the opening emphasized personal care and outreach. Patient Darlene Gelsleichter said, “He's very personable, he's wonderful, he really cares about you as a patient. I'm really happy to have him as my physician.” Vega described community coordination as ongoing, saying, “We've been working closely with the community and a number of different agencies including nursing homes, assisted living, to expand our services.”

The combination of on-site services, a stated partnership with Yuma Senior Living, and offerings such as preventive screenings and chronic disease management may affect local efforts to reduce hospitalizations and expand access for older adults in Yuma County. The clinic’s website asks patients to fill out a patient packet and call (928) 750-6410; the materials provided do not list specific payer names, Medicare or Medicaid status, hours of operation, or a full staff roster, items community members may wish to confirm directly with the clinic.
