Veterinarian
Dr. Hawkins was born and raised in the DMV (D.C., Maryland, and Virginia) area. Her love for animals began after caring for her first family dog around the age of 6. She acquired several other pets throughout her childhood and realized she wanted to dedicate her life to improving the care and wellbeing of animals.
Dr. Hawkins graduated with her Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science from North Carolina State University. She then attended the Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine where she received her DVM. Her special interests include preventive care, dentistry, dermatology, surgery, and shelter medicine. During her free time, she enjoys hanging out with her family and friends, traveling, watching TV, going to new restaurants, and spending quality time with her Shih Tzu named Petey.
