Kien Vuu, MD Biography

Dr. Kien Vuu, MD, known as "Doctor V," is a triple board-certified physician, bestselling author of "Thrive State," and one of the leading voices on human energy, longevity, and performance. He helps leaders and organizations unlock the biology of human potential, showing how the energy we bring to our health, relationships, and leadership shapes who we become.

The son of Vietnamese refugees, Dr. V built an accomplished career in medicine. He trained at UC San Diego and UCLA, served on the faculty at UCLA and USC, and led interventional radiology programs at Kaiser Permanente and Providence. Then, at the height of that success, he nearly lost his own health. That turning point led him from treating disease to teaching what truly creates health, performance, and a life fully lived.

Today, Dr. V advises CEOs, executives, entrepreneurs, and athletes on individual performance and longevity, and helps organizations build the energy and resilience behind high-performing teams. He has delivered keynotes for Whole Foods, Bank of America, JPMorgan, CVS, Kaiser Permanente, Fannie Mae, YPO, and EO, and spoken on the TEDx stage. He has appeared on Netflix and Prime Video's Biohack Yourself, and has been featured by ABC, NBC, CBS, TIME, and Forbes.

His sessions blend cutting-edge science with an embodied experience, so audiences don't just learn about transformation. They feel it.
