Gestational Diabetes Care:
Sequoia Medical 360

Specialized Care for Mother and Baby – Bronxville & Westchester, NY

Gestational diabetes is a unique condition that arises during pregnancy when hormonal changes impair the body’s ability to regulate blood sugar. It affects up to 10% of pregnancies and, if not carefully managed, can pose risks for both mother and child — from complications at delivery to an increased lifetime risk of developing Type 2 diabetes.

At Sequoia Medical 360, we bring advanced endocrinology expertise to pregnancy care. Our approach emphasizes early detection, precision management, and long-term protection for both mother and baby.

Why It Matters

 Early Risk Assessment & Screening

First-trimester risk stratification for women with prior gestational diabetes, PCOS, obesity, or family history.
Oral glucose tolerance testing with trimester-specific interpretation.
Advanced metabolic panels to assess insulin resistance and lipid status.
Precision Glucose Management
Nutrition roadmaps that balance maternal and fetal needs without restrictive dieting.
Smart carbohydrate timing and CGM-guided feedback to minimize spikes.
Collaboration with maternal-fetal medicine for high-risk pregnancies.
 Medication When Necessary
Insulin therapy tailored to daily rhythms when diet and activity are insufficient.
Judicious use of oral agents only when clinically appropriate.
Frequent adjustments with real-time feedback through our concierge access.
Postpartum & Long-Term Follow-Up
Re-testing glucose 6–12 weeks postpartum to detect early Type 2 diabetes or prediabetes.
Long-term risk reduction strategies: nutrition, fitness, and body composition monitoring.
Screening children at appropriate intervals, when indicated, for early metabolic risks.

Integration With Women’s Hormonal Health

Gestational diabetes doesn’t exist in isolation. At Sequoia, we cross-link care with other women’s health conditions that intersect with pregnancy, including:

Thyroid Disorders in Pregnancy → critical for fetal brain development.
Calcium & Bone Disorders → ensuring maternal bone health and neonatal calcium balance.
PCOS & Insulin Resistance → predisposing risk factors for gestational diabetes.

This integrated approach ensures that you and your baby receive comprehensive, proactive care.
