Dr. Mcilwain met her husband, Austin, at Clemson. They have three sons, ages 4, 2, and 1.
Dr. Mcilwain has dreamed of being a dentist since she was 12 years old. She chose to become a prosthodontist after completing a one-year pre-dental internship at a prosthodontics practice in Durham. During her internship, her favorite task was making dentures in the laboratory!
She played the sousaphone (marching tuba) for Clemson University Tiger Band.
She enjoys all things creative—painting, baking, sewing, photography, and figuring out how to keep her boys entertained!
The Mcilwain Family is excited to become a part of the Wilmington community, which has already been very welcoming. Dr. Mcilwain looks forward to meeting her dental and medical colleagues in the area. Please fill out the form, below, to introduce yourself!
