Dr. Rivera is one of the leading cardiologist in Amarillo, TX. We have always received the best of care from Dr. Rivera and the Amarillo Heart Group. His practice has now expanded to veins outside of the heart.  Dr. Rivera and his team fixed a vericose vein in my leg. The procedure went very well. Dr Rivera is one of the finest healthcare professionals in Amarillo. Ken and Sheila Hamilton
