About Dr. Rios

Tomas G. Rios, MD, is a board-certified internal medicine specialist serving patients at Rios Healthcare Associates in Houston, Texas. He maintains the highest levels of accreditation and pursues continuing medical education to stay at the forefront of the latest trends in the medical field. 

Dr. Rios received his medical degree (MD) from Saint Louis University in Saint Louis, Missouri, in 2010 with a distinction in research. He completed residency training in internal medicine at the University of Texas Health Science Center Houston (UT Health) in Houston, Texas. He then completed an additional year of training in cardiovascular medicine at UT Health. 

During his time at UT Health, Dr. Rios gained invaluable experience with rotations at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, the Texas Heart Institute/Baylor St Luke's  Medical Center, Memorial Hermann Health System, and Harris Health Lyndon B. Johnson Hospital in Houston, Texas.

In 2015, Dr. Rios started practicing as a hospitalist at Baylor St Luke's Medical Center. A quaternary care hospital, he gained additional experience in caring for the most critically ill patients requiring a multi-disciplinary approach to achieve the best outcomes.

In 2018, frustrated with the depersonalized nature of the current healthcare system, Dr. Rios sought to change the healthcare landscape. He imagined an industry where patients came first - above money and politics. Thus, he created Rios Healthcare Associates. Rios Healthcare Associates is where you can go for healthcare and know that your needs are the first priority.
