Sweetgrass Pediatrics Enhances Coastal Services by Acquiring Inlet Pediatrics

Sweetgrass Pediatrics has announced a significant expansion in its efforts to provide pediatric healthcare along South Carolina’s coastline with the acquisition of Inlet Pediatrics, which will now operate under the Sweetgrass Pediatrics name at the Inlet. That facility, located at 140 Bandage Court in Murrells Inlet, has been a cornerstone of local healthcare for nearly two decades and will continue to serve the community with its established medical team.

Dr. Amanda Drosieko, who has successfully led Inlet Pediatrics, will remain an integral part of the practice alongside nurse practitioner Dawn Fox. This leadership stability allows for an uninterrupted transition, enabling families to continue receiving care from trusted healthcare professionals. The Murrells Inlet location will maintain regular operating hours from Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with a break for lunch from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM.

This acquisition marks a strategic step for Sweetgrass Pediatrics as it seeks to enhance its outreach in the rapidly growing Grand Strand region. By integrating Inlet Pediatrics, Sweetgrass is poised to offer greater convenience and an expanded range of pediatric services to local families. Some of the newly available resources will include telemedicine options, access to behavioral health specialists, online scheduling, and enhanced communication capabilities through texting.

Dr. Colleen Boylston of Sweetgrass Pediatrics highlighted the strategic significance of this expansion, explaining that it aligns with the organization’s broader growth objectives along the South Carolina coast. Both Inlet Pediatrics and Sweetgrass Pediatrics share a similar mission centered on delivering exceptional, family-oriented care, making this integration a logical progression in better serving the community’s healthcare needs.

The merging of services means that families in Murrells Inlet will enjoy access to the larger network of Sweetgrass locations across the Charleston Lowcountry. This interconnected approach aims to improve care coordination, particularly for patients who may require services at multiple locations. Sweetgrass Pediatrics is dedicated to providing compassionate and accessible pediatric care, ensuring that families receive the support they need.

As part of US Pediatric Partners, Sweetgrass Pediatrics is committed to expanding the availability of high-quality pediatric care through innovative healthcare delivery methods, including traditional in-person visits coupled with modern telehealth services.

Through this expansion, Sweetgrass Pediatrics strengthens its promise to ensure that children across the region have access to comprehensive medical services, underscoring a commitment to the health and well-being of young patients and their families throughout South Carolina.
