Atrium Health Provider
Accepts New Patients
Treats Only Children
Video Visits Available“I love watching my patients grow and develop throughout their childhoods. It amazes me how much they can change between visits, and it’s always exciting to learn what new skills a child may have acquired since I last saw them.”
Dr. Alexa Ernst is trained in pediatrics. She has always loved children and knew that she wanted to work with them every day. Combining her love for children with an interest in science and medicine is what led her to pediatrics.
She received her medical degree at the Medical College of Wisconsin and completed a residency in pediatrics at Atrium Health Carolinas Medical Center.
When she’s not working, Dr. Ernst loves hiking with her goldendoodle, June. Her goal is to hike all of the U.S. National Parks. She also enjoys reading and musical theater.
