Veterinarian Overview
Dr. Makowski is a native of Port Huron, Michigan where she spent most of her childhood running around outside in the sunshine hands-on learning about the local animals. She acquired a love for veterinary medicine early on in life and continued to follow that dream attending Central Michigan University with a prestigious Centralis Scholarship for her Bachelors degree, with a concentrate in Biomedical Sciences and Chemistry. She was a member of the university marching band during her four years, Beta Beta Beta National Biological Society, Phi Sigma Pi national honors fraternity, and the Pre-Veterinary club. After graduating cum laude in 2010, she attended the University of Tennessee for continuation of her veterinary medical training. She was involved in the local chapters of the American Veterinary Medical Association, International Veterinary Medical Association, American Association of Bovine Practitioners, and American Association of Small Ruminant Practitioners. She graduated in 2015 as a member of the Phi Zeta veterinary honors fraternity and joined Buckeystown Veterinary Hospital shortly after, bringing along two very important parts of her life: her four legged adoration, Kojac, a Golden Retriever/German Shepherd cross that she rescued in Michigan and her human love, Steve, a native of Frederick whom she met while in school in Tennessee.Dr. Makowski is currently a member of the American Veterinary Medical Association, Maryland Veterinary Medicine Association, Western Maryland Veterinary Medicine Association, American Association of Bovine Practitioners, and American Association of Small Ruminant Practitioners. Her veterinary interests lie in Animal Reproduction, Small Ruminant and Camelid Medicine, Neurology, Neonatology, and Foreign Animal Diseases. In her free time, she enjoys running with Kojac, hiking, camping/backpacking, outdoor sports, and traveling the world witnessing all that it has to offer.
