Overview

I’m a medical oncologist specializing in thoracic oncology. I mostly see patients with lung cancer, but I also see mesothelioma and cancer of the thymus. Being an oncologist is such an exciting, challenging, and rewarding career. Every patient is unique and no two clinical cases are the same. Very early in my medical training, I saw how oncologists engaged with life-threatening diseases, helped patients overcome medication toxicities, and formed a unique bond with cancer patients. I was immediately hooked and pursued medical oncology as a career. I love traveling to Puerto Rico to visit friends and family while enjoying the beach, the food, and the music. I also like playing tennis.

Dr. Rivera-Concepcion is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Severe Congenital Neutropenia. His top areas of expertise are Large-Cell Lung Carcinoma, Squamous Cell Lung Carcinoma, Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC), and Lung Adenocarcinoma.
