About Me

Dr. Alfin G. Vicencio is the Chief of the Division of Pediatric Pulmonology and Vice Chair for Clinical Affairs and Strategy for the Department of Pediatrics at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and Mount Sinai Kravis Children's Hospital. After completing his undergraduate studies at the University of Notre Dame and obtaining his medical degree from the University of Toledo, he relocated to the East Coast, where he completed a pediatric residency at Babies and Children's Hospital (Columbia University) and a pediatric pulmonology fellowship at Yale University. A primary clinical interest of his over the past several years has been severe and refractory asthma. Together with several regional collaborators, Dr. Vicencio is investigating the potential role of microbial organisms (including fungi) in severe asthma, as well as formulating new diagnostic and treatment plans for such patients. In addition to his work in asthma, he has extensive experience in diagnostic and interventional flexible bronchoscopy in children. Dr. Vicencio has published on a variety of topics including asthma, flexible bronchoscopy, wheezing, tracheobronchomalacia, bronchiolitis and bronchopulmonary dysplasia, and has been recognized as a "Top Doctor" both regionally and nationally.
