KidzCare Pediatrics, a leading pediatric healthcare provider in North Carolina, has expanded its network with the addition of Oceanside Pediatrics in Morehead City. The integration, which took effect in early June, brings together over 17 years of community-focused care under the leadership of Dr. Andrew Kiluk. The practice, located at 3701 John Platt Dr., will continue to serve Carteret County families while offering new resources from KidzCare's statewide system.
Oceanside Pediatrics has been recognized for its exceptional care, particularly among military families and underserved populations. It also gained a reputation as a regional leader in pediatric mental health services, addressing needs that escalated during the COVID-19 pandemic. By joining KidzCare, the practice can now offer broader access to specialized services and a larger network of pediatric providers.
Dr. Ashok Jain of KidzCare Pediatrics praised the seamless integration, noting that Dr. Kiluk's team shares KidzCare's mission of comprehensive, compassionate, and accessible care. The Morehead City office operates Monday through Friday, 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM, and is equipped with an advanced emergency generator to ensure uninterrupted operations during severe weather.
Dr. Kiluk expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating that it allows Oceanside Pediatrics to expand resources and services while maintaining the personalized care families expect. KidzCare Pediatrics, which has served North Carolina for over 20 years, operates more than 25 locations and participates in the National Health Service Corps to ensure care for all families regardless of ability to pay.
