KidzCare Pediatrics has expanded its pediatric healthcare services in North Carolina through the recent addition of Oceanside Pediatrics in Morehead City. This merger, finalized in early June, integrates Oceanside Pediatrics' 17 years of dedicated service, particularly noted for its pediatric mental health services and care for military and underserved populations, into KidzCare's statewide network.

Located at 3701 John Platt Dr., the Morehead City practice now operates under KidzCare, offering extended resources and specialized services while maintaining its commitment to personalized care. Dr. Andrew Kiluk, founder of Oceanside Pediatrics, emphasized the benefits of this merger for patient care, highlighting the enhanced support and extensive network provided by KidzCare.

KidzCare Pediatrics, with over 20 years of service in North Carolina, continues its mission to deliver comprehensive, compassionate, and accessible pediatric services. The Morehead City location, equipped with an advanced emergency generator system, ensures uninterrupted care during severe weather, safeguarding critical services like vaccine protection.

Dr. Ashok Jain of KidzCare Pediatrics praised the seamless integration of Oceanside Pediatrics, noting the alignment of both practices' dedication to patient care. This merger not only strengthens KidzCare's presence in North Carolina but also promises enhanced healthcare services for the Morehead City community and beyond.
