Luis A. Gonzalez Corro, MD

As an attending physician at Bellevue Hospital Center, I am dedicated to providing compassionate, patient–provider care with a focus on wellness and prevention. In addition to my clinical work, I am part of the Vaccine Center at NYU Langone and a fellow in the NYU Langone HIV Equity Research Fellowship program.

My research interests focus on addressing patient access to treatment for HIV infection and hepatitis C for marginalized populations with substance use disorders, as well as the intersection of community-based participatory research, research-based advocacy, implementation science, and translating these efforts into policies that benefit patient care.

Originally from rural Panama, I completed my medical education at the Latin American School of Medicine in Havana, Cuba. I went onto complete my residency in primary care and social internal medicine at Montefiore Einstein in the Bronx, and a postdoctoral fellowship in clinical research and adult infectious diseases at The Johns Hopkins Hospital.

I believe in healthcare engagement and strive to empower my patients through education and partnership. Given my lived experiences as an Afro-Latine physician, I am deeply committed to using medicine as a tool for advocacy, equity, and social justice.
