Dr. Sterling Whitworth

I grew up in Covington, Georgia. I still live in Covington with my family. I married my high school sweetheart. We are expecting our first child in November.

What makes me smile walking in the office every morning, besides my coffee, is the exciting adventures of my day. From meeting new patients to reconnecting with the old ones, every encounter brings me joy. We have some of the kindest and most interesting people walk through our doors. I love hearing their stories and learning about them and thrive on our conversations between us. Most of all, I love working in partnership with each person to help everyone attain the smile of their dreams.

My team here at CDP is truly remarkable and we are committed to ensuring that each patient is provided with exceptional dental care and customer service.

When I get the chance, I do love getting out on the golf course. I also enjoy traveling and love to hit the slopes as much as possible!

By the way, I’m a big Georgia football fan! Go Dawgs!!
