Hi there! My name is Dr. Chevelta A. Smith. Yes! My parents named me after a Chevrolet Chevelle car. I am a board-certified OB/Gyn, COVID-19 frontline worker, Navy veteran, pastor, marriage strategist, educator, and published author.  I’ve also been told by many, that I am a dynamic and powerful speaker—both medically and spiritually. I am humbled by such remarks. Through God’s grace, I have had the wonderful opportunity to touch the lives of many people both nationally and internationally through the broadcast ministries of Resurrection Today, TBN, Streaming Faith, and my former radio show, Straight Talk with Dr. Chevelta, featured on Gospel Impact Radio (2013-2014).  

I was born in Washington, DC but moved a lot in my early years due to my dad being in the military. We settled in the DMV area when I was in 4th grade. I had a great life, however, like many, I too experienced some unfortunate events in my life that would change me and the way I viewed myself. For years to come, I would silently struggle with self-esteem, insecurity, and the fear of failure. Until one day, God lovingly opened my eyes to the realization that I am the product of my name. You see, Chevelle is a French word which means, “bold and beautiful.”  That day, I promised myself that I would be a reflection of both in this world

Today, I stand as a woman who has completely healed from my past. And in that healing, I have accepted that I am valuable and more importantly that, “my voice matters.” In recognizing my value, I now desire more, access more, and accomplish more in my life. My mission is to help my fellow women in this world to recognize and embrace their value so that they may do the same. I love weight lifting and the beach! Although initially unintentional, my bright red curly hair has become my trademark and seems to attract the attention of individuals everywhere. I enjoy laughing and I love being down to earth. Honestly, I am a comedian on the down low—LOL! My heart’s desire is to continue to educate, mentor, and motivate individuals both in the medical and spiritual arena. I aspire to become a TV host and to continue to build a platform to educate individuals on the importance of medical and spiritual health and wholeness.
