Sean Daneshmand, MD
Director
As a Perinatologist and Medical Director of the Scripps Clinic Division of Maternal and Fetal Medicine, I have focused my career on developing programs to improve resources for woman and children to ultimately improve clinical, quality of life, and health outcomes during pregnancy. At Scripps Clinic, I have offices at multiple locations in the San Diego region including La Jolla, San Diego, Encinitas and Chula Vista. As the Director of the Department, I am involved in the teaching and mentorship of nursing students, sonographers and junior faculty, while also participating in clinical conferences and educational activities for our referring providers. For 20+ years, my passion has been on the delivery of care in high-risk pregnancies where I care for a wide range of conditions and complications that can occur during pregnancy, including preterm labor, hypertension, preeclampsia, diabetes, abnormally invasive placentation and clotting disorders. Within my capacity at Scripps, I have been fortunate to deliver thousands of babies while offering my dedication and continued commitment to reducing premature birth and preeclampsia with a goal to improve the health of mothers, neonates and infants. In addition to my clinical experiences, I am the founder of a nonprofit organization, Miracle Babies, where our mission is to provide financial assistance and support to families with newborns in the NICU and to enhance the wellbeing of women, children and families through education, prevention and medical care. Healthy Women, Healthy Children (HWHC) is a preventive arm of Miracle Babies, which I established to enhance the wellbeing of women and children in partnership with federally funded community clinics to provide comprehensive health and nutrition programs for low-income women who are likely to have at-risk pregnancies. The HWHC, along with other investigators, study fetus' development to assess if environmental impacts (such as nutrients, stressors, or toxins) can affect or even reset organ, tissue, and cell function by changing the child's genetic makeup via epigenetics. I was recognized as a CNN Hero of the week in 2010 and received the Health Care Champion Awards in 2010 and 2018 by the San Diego Business Journal because of my work with Miracle Babies. I am also the founder and medical director for A+B Medical Spa (2005 – Present) and co-founder of A+B Clinical Research (2018 – present). I have been nominated by my fellow colleagues as joint venture between San Diego magazine and San Diego County medical Society as “Top Doc” each year from 2007 until present.
