Pound Ridge, NY — Tracy Shevell, MD, is being recognized by
Continental Who's Who as a Pinnacle
Healthcare Professional for her excellence in Maternal-Fetal Medicine and
in acknowledgment of her founding Blue Moon Perinatal, created to support women
along their journey from pre-pregnancy through postpartum.
A fellowship-trained Perinatologist with 20 years of
experience, Dr Shevell focuses on high-risk pregnancies, ensuring safe and
healthy outcomes for mothers and babies. Before founding Blue Moon Perinatal in
2021, Dr. Shevell served for 18 years as an attending Perinatologist and
Director of Perinatal Ultrasound at Stamford Hospital.
In pursuit of her career in medicine, Dr. Shevell earned her
Medical Degree with Honors in 1997 from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine
and completed her residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Mount Sinai
Medical Center. She completed a Fellowship in Maternal-Fetal Medicine in 2004
at the Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center in New York City.
Dr. Shevell began Blue Moon Perinatal in 2021 to help reach
more high-risk pregnant women and provide additional support throughout their
journey into motherhood. Her medical practice is online-based, allowing her to
see patients from the comfort of their own homes. She offers evening and
weekend appointments for added convenience to patients.
A passionate and dedicated physician, Dr. Shevell strives to
facilitate more open and effective communication between expectant mothers
facing high-risk pregnancies and their obstetricians. She shares, "I spent
my career tirelessly working in my community's hospital and developed a keen
interest in maternal mental health care. Our system, though, has clearly become
one where we need to do better for women in their reproductive years."
With Blue Moon Perinatal, Dr. Shevell utilizes her decades
of experience to provide an alternative to the current obstetric system. She
acts as liaison, confidant, and coach for women experiencing difficulty with
all stages of pregnancy, including fertility, pregnancy risks, complications,
diagnoses, or those facing mental health struggles alongside motherhood. She
explains that her goal is to create a safe haven for those needing extra care
outside of their medical provider. Looking toward the future, she wishes to
continue serving as a mentor to other physicians in maternal-fetal medicine and
further grow her practice.
Dr. Shevell enjoys spending time with her children, one of whom
is in college and one of whom is an avid equestrian. She also enjoys music and
her beloved yellow lab, Sunny. She is also passionate about integrating
holistic practice into all areas of her life.
