In June 2023, Dr. Markowitz started his first annual Smiling Senior Scholarship - in which he awards a current high school senior $2,500 towards college expenses! The scholarship contest is a way for Dr. Markowitz to give back to the communities that he serves, spread positivity, and build confidence in his individual patients.
