He then attended the University of North Texas for four years and graduated with honors, majoring in Computer Science/Engineering with emphasis in Biology and Chemistry in 1990. Fulfilling a lifelong dream to become a physician, he then entered the University of North Texas Health Science Center at Fort Worth and graduated with honors in 1996. During medical school training he earned several scholarships and recognition for academic performance.

Inspired by his father's experience with disabling hip arthritis at the relatively young age of forty-six, Dr. Whittenburg decided to dedicate his career to helping people with similar conditions. He then spent a general internship year in Tulsa, Oklahoma. This was followed by four years in Chicago in orthopedic surgery residency where he received training in total joint replacement, orthopedic trauma, hand, spine, and pediatric orthopedics. Residency training included lengthy rotations at area hospitals such as the University of Chicago, Northwestern University, Christ Hospital, and Cook County Hospital.

He then returned to the Dallas/Fort Worth area to begin practice and raise a family. Dr. Whittenburg is married to wife Julie, has two children and lives in the mid-cities area.
