Dr. Aviel Lemus is a Board-Certified Pediatrician and a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics. A graduate of Harvard University with a degree in Biochemical Sciences, he received his medical degree from Tel Aviv University School of Medicine and completed his residency at Tulane University.
His research has focused on mechanisms of antiviral drug resistance and evolution of viral species in patients receiving antiviral treatments. He is a staff physician at Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital where he has taught outpatient pediatrics for the Memorial Healthcare System Pediatric Residency Program.
