Dr. Seif Sadek's path into reproductive endocrinology was shaped by geography, mentorship, and a sense of purpose. 

"From early on in my medical training, I was drawn to the intersection of science, surgery, and the deeply personal impact of fertility care," he shared. 

After earning his medical degree from Weill Cornell in Qatar, he completed OB/GYN residency training in New York and Virginia. Then he pursued fellowship training at the Jones Institute, one of the first centers in the U.S. to offer IVF.

From Cairo to Orlando

"My journey has been international and multidisciplinary," he explained. "I was fortunate to train under pioneers in the field, contribute to meaningful research, and see firsthand how different systems support fertility care."This mix of cultures and clinical environments shaped his approach to medicine.


"Fertility care is science and surgery, but it's also trust. That starts with making people feel heard."

The Language of Trust

Dr. Sadek speaks both English and Arabic fluently, something that enables him to forge meaningful connections with a diverse range of patients. "Being bilingual has allowed me to communicate in more personal and culturally sensitive ways," he said. "This field is deeply emotional. Being able to explain complex options in someone's native language helps create comfort and builds trust."

That trust is foundational. So is transparency. "Every patient's journey is different. I believe in creating treatment plans that are individualized and evidence-based, while also making sure patients feel empowered every step of the way."

 
 

Dr. Sadek brings that same collaborative spirit to his role with Inception Fertility. "Inception fosters a culture of innovation. I love being part of a group that integrates clinical work with research and embryology, and that leverages emerging tools like artificial intelligence. It's an exciting time to be in the field."


"Science moves us forward. But compassion keeps us grounded."


Building Strength

Dr. Sadek believes the next decade will bring even greater strides. "I see technology continuing to improve outcomes. From AI in embryology to non-invasive embryo selection tools to more personalized protocols based on genetic and molecular profiling, we're on the cusp of something transformative."

But innovation means nothing if it's not accessible. "I hope we also make care more equitable across communities and around the world. Access should not be a privilege."

What many may not know about Dr. Sadek is his background in competitive sports. "I played handball growing up in Egypt and was on the national team for a while," he said. "Until about a year ago, I was still playing here in Orlando."

He credits fitness with keeping him balanced. "Strength training gives me clarity and energy. It's how I recharge. That, and spending time with my family. They are my anchor."

One Case That Still Resonates

He recalled a couple who carried a known genetic condition. "They were afraid to move forward, overwhelmed by the science. But we took our time, discussed every option, and supported them throughout." The couple eventually proceeded with IVF and genetic testing, and are now expecting.

"It was a reminder of what thoughtful, compassionate care can do," he said. "To see their confidence grow was everything.
