Very great doctor. Shows that he really cares about his patients. His staff is full of kindness, they are very respectful, and they have a lot of patience with children. I will really recommend this doctor to anyone that needs a pediatrician.

I like Dr. Rivera. He is a good Doctor but I hate his waiting time. They should plan patient appointments so the waiting is no more thatn 30 to 45 minutes. I have waited over 2 hours and for little kids is just too much.
