    Biography

    With a warm heart and a keen eye for detail, Dr. Sara Makary brings a wealth of knowledge and dedication to the world of dentistry in Florida. A proud graduate of the University of North Florida in 2010, she obtained her degree in Psychology before diving into the realm of dentistry at the University of Florida in 2014.

    Dr. Makary's commitment to the community is evident. Early in her career, she aligned her passion with purpose by offering her services to non-profit organizations, touching the lives of many in Jacksonville's underserved segments. Her collaborative spirit was further demonstrated through her association as a courtesy faculty with the University of Florida College of Dentistry, where she played an instrumental role in guiding budding dentists during their vital extramural rotations.

    In her belief that dentistry goes beyond just the technicalities and delves deep into personal interactions, she founded Northpoint Dental. This venture was her way of giving back to the Oceanway area – a place she's proud to call home.

    Dr. Makary's journey started in Egypt and took her to the shores of California during her teenage years. However, her heart found its true north in Jacksonville in 2003. Today, she's a proud resident of the North Jacksonville area, nurturing her growing family which includes her lively sons, Daniel and Aaron, and Olaf – their enormous white, Great Pyrenees.

    In the midst of her bustling life, Dr. Makary enjoys painting, loses herself in books, and thrives on family activities and regular workouts.

    For Dr. Makary, dentistry is more than just a profession; it's about making a difference, one smile at a time.
