Dr. Makokis is a leading figure in North American healthcare, renowned for pioneering one of the most progressive family medical clinics committed to serving both the 2SLGBTQIA+ and First Nation peoples across Canada. One of few Indigenous physicians in Canada, he has received international recognition that stems not only from his role as a physician but also from his authorship in the fields of Indigenous health, transgender health, and culturally sensitive care. A proud Cree, Two-Spirit physician from the Saddle Lake First Nation in Northern Alberta, Dr. Makokis is a vocal supporter of 2SLGBTQIA+ rights and Two-Spirit visibility and is dedicated to education, inclusivity, and acceptance.
