Inception Fertility, North America's largest provider of fertility services, announces today that Gaurang Daftary, MD, has been named president of physician relations.
Dr. Daftary joined Inception Fertility in 2024 as chief scientific officer of the Inception Research Institute, where he supports the Institute's research programs by initiating new trials with pharmaceutical, device, and laboratory sponsors. In his new role as president of physician relations, Dr. Daftary will oversee Inception's physician engagement efforts, which include nurturing existing physician relationships and expanding the company's physician base by recruiting new and established reproductive endocrinology and infertility (REI) physicians into The Prelude Network, Inception's clinical network of top-tier fertility practices across North America.
Dr. Daftary will also continue serving as CSO of the Inception Research Institute. Established in 2022, the Inception Research Institute elevates the field of reproductive medicine by addressing the industry's most urgent needs, including cutting-edge advances in patient care through pharmacological innovations and device development, improving access to care, professional development and advancement, and innovative studies which investigate the relationships between treatment success and controllable entities such as lifestyle habits and emotional health.
The appointment to president of physician relations comes after the recent passing of Mark Montondon, a founding member of the Inception management team who played an integral role in Inception's success and forging relationships with physicians across the field of reproductive medicine.
"Since Gaurang joined Inception, he has made significant contributions to our organization and has pushed forward research to help improve the science and quality of reproductive medicine," says TJ Farnsworth, founder and CEO of Inception Fertility. "Collaboration with physicians is key to furthering our research mission, and we are excited for Gaurang to lead our physician relationships."
“I am honored to expand my work with Inception, foster physician relations with our current REIs and expand our network with the best and brightest doctors — all to exceed the boundaries of patient care and outcomes," shares Dr. Daftary.
