Biography
Dr. Vivek Mohan, MD, MS, FAAOS, is a board-certified, fellowship-trained orthopaedic spine surgeon serving the Chicago area from offices in Hinsdale, Lincolnwood, and Schaumburg, Illinois. Ivy League–educated with 15 years in independent practice at the Orthopaedic Spine Institute, he brings elite training and a highly specialized focus to spine care in Chicagoland.
Dr. Mohan specializes in outpatient minimally invasive and endoscopic spine surgery — advanced techniques designed to treat spinal conditions through smaller incisions, often on an outpatient basis, with the goal of reduced tissue disruption and faster recovery for appropriate candidates. His practice also includes complex spinal deformity correction and revision spine surgery for both pediatric and adult patients, a dual capability that distinguishes him from most surgeons in the region.
His expertise has earned sustained independent recognition, including three Becker's Spine Review recognitions in 2017, 2023, and 2024 — an uncommon achievement for a surgeon in independent practice. Patients seek out Dr. Mohan for conditions ranging from herniated discs and spinal stenosis to scoliosis and complex deformity, as well as for second opinions and revision of previous spine surgery.
Across his Hinsdale, Lincolnwood, and Schaumburg offices, Dr. Mohan emphasizes matching each patient to the least invasive effective treatment, considering surgery when appropriate and always tailoring the plan to the individual. His combination of Ivy League training, board certification, fellowship-level subspecialty expertise, and 15 years of experience makes him a distinctive resource for spine patients throughout the Chicago area.
