The Doctor's Doctor

Dr. Mohammed Alo grew up in Toledo, Ohio, earned an economics degree at the University of Toledo and then went to medical school at Midwestern University in Chicago. He is board certified in internal medicine and cardiovascular medicine, a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology, a certified personal trainer and an assistant clinical professor of medicine at Ohio University, where he teaches future physicians and cardiologists.

For more than 20 years he has taught doctors how to help their patients with heart disease, cholesterol and weight loss. Many physicians, including cardiologists, consult him about their own heart health, which is why he is often called the Cardiologist's Cardiologist.

What other doctors say

“Dr. Alo possesses a wealth of information regarding cardiovascular disease, lipids and prevention. He's able to present complex information in a concise and easy to understand way for patients and physicians alike. Even though I am a cardiologist, I do not treat myself, and I found his counsel to be invaluable.”

“As physicians, we don't like to treat ourselves. This is especially true in cardiology. If I have cardiology questions, I ask Dr. Alo. I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone.”
