Dr. Sayed is a member of the American Society of Clinical Oncology, the American Society of Hematology, and the American Medical Association.  While practicing at the University of Virginia, he was actively involved in multiple research activities and clinical trials with a special focus on targeted therapy for cancer.  He promotes enrollment in clinical trials to bring cutting-edge cancer treatment to his patients and takes interest in early and late side effects of therapy.

“During my high school years, my father was diagnosed with a brain cancer.  Throughout his treatment, I learned the tremendous value of communication between the oncologist and cancer patient, by providing care and emotional support.  I believe treating cancer patients is a privilege, to help them during this journey and to make the road better and smoother.”
