Wilmington families gain a dedicated physician leader committed to representation, continuity of care, and compassionate pediatrics


WILMINGTON, NC, September 08, 2025 /24-7PressRelease/ -- KidzCare Pediatrics is proud to announce that Dr. Erika Pritchett, MD–an experienced, board-eligible pediatrician–will join the KidzCare Wilmington office beginning September 17th. Dr. Pritchett will see patients five days a week, Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Her addition is especially meaningful for Wilmington families seeking care that reflects the diversity of the community. As a Black physician, Dr. Pritchett's presence will strengthen KidzCare's longstanding commitment to providing accessible, family-centered medicine in an environment where every family feels represented and supported.

"I greet every child and family with a warm smile and attentive care, providing thoughtful, evidence-based pediatric medicine from birth through young adulthood," said Dr. Pritchett. "I'm excited to relocate to Wilmington and return to a practice setting where I can build continuity of care, support parents at every stage, and watch children grow and thrive."

Dr. Pritchett's clinical interests include supporting parents during the newborn period and guiding adolescents through the emotional and behavioral changes of adolescence. Her approach blends current research, clinical expertise, and a compassionate partnership with families to provide both high-quality care and peace of mind.

KidzCare's Wilmington office, located at 1606 Wellington Ave, Suite F, in the Wellington Pointe Health Village, is proud to continue serving the children of New Hanover County and surrounding communities.
