KidzCare Pediatrics Expands Pediatric Healthcare Services in North Carolina with Oceanside Pediatrics Acquisition

KidzCare Pediatrics has recently expanded its pediatric healthcare services in North Carolina by welcoming Oceanside Pediatrics into its family of practices. This integration, finalized in early June, marks a significant step in KidzCare's commitment to providing comprehensive and accessible pediatric care across the state. Oceanside Pediatrics, located at 3701 John Platt Dr. in Morehead City, has been a cornerstone of pediatric healthcare in Carteret County for over 17 years, under the leadership of Dr. Andrew Kiluk.

The addition of Oceanside Pediatrics to KidzCare's network is particularly noteworthy due to the former's esteemed reputation for delivering exceptional pediatric care, with a special focus on military families and underserved populations. Furthermore, Oceanside Pediatrics has been recognized as a regional leader in pediatric mental health services, a critical area of need that has seen increased demand since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

KidzCare Pediatrics, with over 20 years of service in North Carolina, is known for its dedication to personal, convenient, and holistic care. The Morehead City location continues to operate under KidzCare, offering adjusted office hours from Monday through Friday, 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM, and now provides families with access to a broader network of pediatric care providers across the state.

Dr. Ashok Jain of KidzCare Pediatrics expressed enthusiasm about the seamless integration of Oceanside Pediatrics, highlighting the shared commitment to compassionate and comprehensive pediatric services. The Morehead City practice is equipped with an advanced emergency generator system, ensuring uninterrupted operations and the safety of vaccines during severe weather, further underscoring the practice's dedication to patient care.

Dr. Andrew Kiluk shared his optimism about the future, emphasizing the opportunity to enhance the resources and specialized services available to patients while maintaining the high-quality, personalized care Oceanside Pediatrics is known for. This partnership not only strengthens KidzCare's presence in North Carolina but also reinforces its mission to deliver inclusive and high-quality pediatric healthcare to all families, regardless of their ability to pay.
