Try Duke, East Carolina Univ Brody, Univeristy of NC Chapel Hill, and Wake Forrest if you want to stay in state.

i can't really help you with schools to apply to, since i didn't look anywhere on the east coast. but i will say that you should definitely apply to more than 3. maybe 10 or 15 or so. even though your stats are really good, this application game is a total crap shoot. you could get turned down from some of your "safety" schools (if there is such a thing in med school admissions) and accepted to some of your reaches. if you want to stay in state, i'd make sure to apply to every in-state med school. then pick a few others and apply to those, too.
