Dr. Vineeth Mohan, MD has been a board-certified endocrinologist & diabetologist for nearly 25 years. He has been listed in "America's Top Docs" by Castle Connolly Medical Ltd. since 2010. He did his undergraduate training at Baylor University and his medical degree at the University of Texas, Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, TX.  He went on to serve 9 years in the US Air Force where he completed his fellowship in endocrinology at the National Naval-Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C.  He served as the Chief of Endocrinology at Andrews Air Force Base, the home of Air Force One.  After completing his military career, Dr. Mohan joined the Cleveland Clinic branch in South Florida where he served as the Chairman of the Department of Endocrinology from 2017-2024.  Dr. Mohan had a very busy practice where he cared for adults with various endocrine conditions from throughout Florida and around the world with special interest in diabetes, thyroid diseases, calcium disorders, & osteoporosis.   

Born in India and moving to the United States as a young child, he grew up enjoying a traditional vegetarian diet.  Over the years, this centuries-old way of eating gradually became replaced by the Standard American Diet.  Like most physicians, Dr. Mohan had only limited formal training on the impact of this diet on the medical problems he would ultimately be managing.   In fact, in medical school, he would frequent the major fast-food restaurant that was conveniently located in an especially busy part of the hospital to order a meal of burgers, fries, and sugar-sweetened sodas along with other students, doctors and patients some of whom were in hospital gowns and towing their IV poles behind them!    

After meeting Michelle, he was re-introduced to the type of diet that he had grown up with as a child.  Her passion for food as a key to health led him to examine the impact of diet and lifestyle on the conditions in his field.  He was surprised to see that a wealth of medical literature had been accumulating demonstrating the power of healthy eating patterns and lifestyle choices on the very conditions he was treating every day in his clinic.   

Dr. Mohan had been a teacher for his whole career participating in the training of medical students and residents. He brought the same enthusiasm for teaching to each clinic visit with his patients who learned about their medical conditions in great depth.  His patients also became his best teachers.  Through lifestyle modifications, they showed him improvements in health that he thought were not possible while simultaneously reducing or eliminating their need for medications.  Implementing a whole-person approach to endocrine and metabolic conditions became more difficult as the number of patients he was managing continued to rise year-by-year and appointment times dwindled to the bare minimum.  He began to realize that he needed to reinvent the endocrine clinic to provide the optimal care for his patients. 

Mohan Wellness Institute was created to integrate the best of modern medical treatment and monitoring with a highly personalized, education-focused, and supportive team-based approach to lifestyle change to enhance our patients’ lives and ultimately their health-span! 

Dr. Mohan has been a member of several medical associations including, the American Diabetes Association, the American Thyroid Association, the Endocrine Society, the American Association of Clinical Endocrinology, The American Medical Association, and the Society of Uniformed Endocrinology.  He has served as Clinical Affiliate Professor of Medicine at Florida Atlantic University, Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine and Clinical Assistant Professor of Medicine at Florida International University, Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine.
