Dr. Fahimeh Sasan is Founding Physician and Chief Innovation Officer at Kindbody, where she leads the design of equitable, inclusive reproductive care and family-building benefits for global workforces. She was instrumental in forging Kindbody’s landmark partnership with Walmart, bringing comprehensive fertility, reproductive care, and surrogacy benefits to Walmart’s entire U.S. workforce for the first time and setting a new standard for employer-sponsored care at scale. Kindbody is a leading fertility, family-building, and women’s health company offering comprehensive clinical care and benefit solutions for employers, health plans, and individuals.
A board-certified Ob/Gyn, Dr. Sasan completed her residency at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City and has spent over 20 years as a practicing clinician. She is known for delivering highly personalized, comprehensive care, and at Kindbody leads a model that integrates fertility, gynecology, prenatal care including both low- and high-risk, and wellness, creating a seamless single point of entry for reproductive healthcare.
Dr. Sasan is a passionate advocate for healthcare literacy as preventative care, empowering individuals with the knowledge to take control of their health. She is a frequent speaker on reproductive health, maternal care, and the impact of social determinants on health outcomes and quality of life.
What happens when fertility benefits are designed to meet employees where they are? Four years into its Fertility Center of Excellence program, Walmart will share key insights on improving access, supporting associates with wide-ranging health needs, and evolving benefits to meet the needs of a geographically diverse workforce. Leaders from Kindbody and Walmart will discuss how combining virtual and in-person care can help expand access across communities and social determinants of health (SDOH) nationwide. The session will also explore broader lessons learned around employee engagement, care navigation, and the role comprehensive family-building benefits can play in supporting workforce wellbeing.
