My bio
Hello, my name is Muhammad Ali Syed, MD, and I am currently serving as the medical director for sleep medicine, fellowship director of sleep medicine program & associate professor of medicine. I am board certified in both internal medicine and sleep medicine, and my clinical interests include insomnia, circadian rhythm disorders and sleep disorders.
My journey in medicine began with a childhood dream inspired by my father, a renowned cardiologist. My ultimate goal is to improve my patients鈥� quality of life through better sleep health. I would like my patients to know that I enjoy educating and empowering them with knowledge about their own health.
During my Sleep Medicine fellowship at Cleveland Clinic, I was selected as the chief sleep medicine fellow. I was also selected to serve on the ABIM Sleep Medicine Item-Writing Task Force term until June, 30, 2025, and on the ABIM Sleep Medicine Approval Committee term until June 30, 2027. I was named a fellow of the American College of Physicians (ACP) and had the honor of being selected as the reviewer of the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine (JCSM).
In my free time, I like to learn about world history, watch travel shows and aviation documentaries, and stay informed about global news.
