Dr. Jennifer Whitworth grew up in Henryetta, Oklahoma.
Dr. Whitworth developed her interest in veterinary medicine at a young age while growing up on a small farm with a wide variety of animal friends that she loved and cared for. Her decision to become a veterinarian was made at the early age of four, and it never wavered.
Dr. Whitworth began gaining hands-on experience and knowledge of the profession with her first veterinary assistant job at age fifteen. She continued to work in veterinary clinics while completing high school, undergraduate courses, and her veterinary degree. In 2002, Dr. Whitworth finished her undergraduate degree in Animal Science from Oklahoma State University. She then went on to receive her DVM degree from Oklahoma State University College of Veterinary Medicine in 2005.
Since completion of vet school, she has enjoyed practicing small animal medicine in Oklahoma, California, and Texas. She has been a resident of Little Elm since 2010 when she first met and practiced with Dr. Shores. Dr. Whitworth is excited to be working close to home in her own community.
Outside of work, Dr. Whitworth enjoys spending her time with her husband, Noel, and daughter, Jaylee. On weekends, they love to travel home to Oklahoma to spend time in the country with their cows, donkey, and ducks. They also share their life and home with their beloved four-legged family members: a Bichon Frise named Maizy, a Shih-Tzu mix named Fergie, a Shih-Tzu named KC, a Dachshund named Anna, a Shih-Tzu named Amelia, and two adorable kitties, Layla and Mackenzie.
