Dr. Jonathon Whitehead, M.D., is a fellowship-trained orthopaedic surgeon who specializes in hand and upper extremity surgery, including the shoulder, elbow, wrist, and hand. He joined Southlake in 2025 and is dedicated to working with each of his patients to develop a personalized care plan that restores them to their best selves.
A native of Hoover, Alabama, and a graduate of Hoover High School, he attended Auburn University and graduated Summa Cum Laude with a bachelor’s degree in biomedical sciences. He earned his medical degree from The University of South Alabama College of Medicine, where he was inducted into the Arnold P. Gold Humanism in Medicine Honor Society. Following medical school, Dr. Whitehead completed his residency training in orthopaedic surgery at the Medical College of Georgia. Following residency, Dr. Whitehead received additional specialized training, completing a Hand and Upper Extremity Fellowship at the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
Dr. Whitehead has always enjoyed helping people and using his hands to fix things. He spent many summers working with his dad in construction. Years later, he found many of the same elements he enjoyed about construction- structure, spatial awareness, fixing- were also incorporated into medicine. He finds the hand to be intricate and fascinating, and he enjoys both the variety of surgery and the precision required in hand and upper extremity surgery.
When he is not seeing patients, Dr. Whitehead enjoys spending time with his family, especially in the outdoors, and grilling and watching football.
Dr. Whitehead is available to see patients at both our Grandview and Hoover office locations.

Awesome
I love his table side manner. He is professional and kind. It’s very refreshing. My appointment was great, so quick with great results. I was screened, X-rayed, and ultrasound with injections that gave me immediate relief on both hands. Very thankful for this appointment and I’m happy to be a new patient of Dr. Whitehead.
He is very nice, spent a good bit of time thoroughly examing my hand and listened intently.
Friendly and professional doctor and staff.
I had a great experience with Dr. Whitehead. He is extremely thorough in his approach, taking the time to listen carefully and explain everything clearly. His pleasant and reassuring demeanor made me feel very comfortable throughout the visit. I truly felt like I was in good hands. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate doctor.
Did an excellent job diagnosing my problem with my shoulder
