Angel Rivera, DO is a board-certified Internal Medicine physician affiliated with Swedish Covenant Hospital. He studied exercise physiology at the University of Florida and his passion for health led him to Nova Southeastern University for his doctorate in osteopathic medicine. He grew up in a household that encouraged proper nutrition and good health, which served as the foundation for his desire to close the gap between prevention and the treatment of disease. As a practitioner, he believes that partnering with patients to create a truly personalized care plan—that combines the best in conventional and functional testing—is extremely important to achieving their health goals. He is certified by the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine, is trained in Functional Medicine, and has a clinical interest in lifestyle management, weight loss, and Bioidentical Hormones.
