Dr. Rivkees has worked with the National Institutes of Health and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration on drug safety issues. He was responsible for the safety alert on liver toxicity caused by the antithyroid drug propylthiouracil. This led to major international treatment practice changes. For his effort, he was recognized as the 2018 recipient of the American Thyroid Association’s Paul Starr Award.
During his career, Dr. Rivkees has been named “One of America’s Best Doctors,” “One of America's Top Pediatricians," and “One of New York’s Best Doctors.” He is a member of the American Society for Clinical Investigation, the Connecticut Academy of Science and a fellow of the American Academy for the Advancement of Science.

Dr. Rivkees has had more than 35 years of continuous research funding from the National Institutes of Health. He has more than 250 publications.
He is the past chair of the Board of Scientific Counselors for the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. He is past chair of the Advocacy Committee of the Association of Medical School Pediatric Department Chairs, past treasurer of the Florida Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics, and past member of the Pediatric Policy Council.
He is the past Secretary and Treasurer of the Association of State and Territorial Health Officers Alumni Association and is Vice President of the Rhode Island Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics.
At Brown University, Dr. Rivkees focuses on pandemic preparedness and response, leadership training, and graduate education and helps direct the national STAT (State & Territory Alliance for Testing) Action Network.
