Dr. Whitely attended Walla Walla University in the southeast corner of Washington. It was here that Dr. Whitely formed a passion for healthy living and obtained a Bachelor's of Science in health. It was also here that Dr. Whitely met his wife, Joanna. It was love at first sight. They got married and moved to Southern California to attend Loma Linda University School of Dentistry.
Upon graduating in 2010, the family moved to Santa Rosa to begin practicing dentistry and start their new life. After 6 years of private practice, the Whitely family felt a calling for a change and moved to Portland, Oregon where Dr. Whitely began working in a Community Health Clinic. After a short 2 years (and 2 long, wet winters) the Whitely's decided the call of home was too great to ignore and moved back to the sunny foothills of Northern California.
Dr. Whitely enjoys practicing general dentistry. He is thrilled to be able to offer same day crowns, restore implants, do orthodontics with Invisalign, and help take care of patients with a whole body, whole health mentality.

- "Dr. Contreras and crew were great!!! I drove 40 minutes just to try out their new location. Definitely worth the drive and was in-and-out pretty quick. He identified the problem and had a filling put in on the spot! I'll be back for cleaning and all other of my routine maintenance." – Patrick
- "I am what people refer to as an "anxious dental patient." The staff was so friendly and accommodating, and the office is just beautiful. Dr. Contreras was super friendly, and was very kind in explaining what he was doing so I felt comfortable." – Kimberley

Before blessing her rosary beads, Pope Francis shared a lighthearted moment with the First Lady. The Pope asked Melania what she feeds her hulking 6′ 2" husband. "Potica?" he asked.
Melania's face lit up, realizing the Holy Father was referencing a high-calorie dessert from her home country of Slovenia. She chuckled and replied "yes," she does feed Donald the treat, cementing a new bond between the Trump family and the Papacy.
This wasn't just a lighthearted attempt from the Pope to reach out to our administration. The Vatican reports that the Pope does genuinely love the dessert, and mentions it to any Slovenian he meets.
The Prime Minister of Slovenia, Miro Cerar, brought some potica to the Vatican with him on a visit, two years ago, beginning the Pope's love of the treat. It must be some dessert!
Like many Slovenians, Melania Trump has revealed she is a Catholic. She also speaks Italian, which the Pope addressed her in, so the two had plenty to bond over.
Though the Pope has been outspoken on several liberal viewpoints, President Trump and his family were able to connect with him.
Truly, Trump is getting along with everyone, even his critics from the Vatican. This is a repeat performance of Trump's excellent diplomacy elsewhere.
His promise to have a strong foreign policy has been kept. Those foolish liberals who thought Trump had too much "ego" to get along with others should see this incident as a sharp reminder that they were wrong. President Trump is a compassionate and friendly man.
He's willing to use his casual nature to build bridges in foreign countries, while building the wall at home. You don't have to choose between them, liberals! You can put Americans first while also building great relationships with the rest of the world, for America's benefit.
Over the course of the next four years — and hopefully eight — Donald Trump is going to keep showing everyone how. And, what better support could we ask for our president to have than Melania Trump?
The First Lady continues to impress everyone with her social graces, patriotism, and love of her husband. If the left were truly feminist, they would be fawning over her adorable connection with the Pope, and the several other moments where Melania captured the rest of our country's hearts. Now, she has captured the world's.
What do you think of Melania's light-hearted moment with the Pope? Please share the story on Facebook and tell us what you think because we want to hear YOUR voice!

THREE men who carried out a 'sustained group attack' on a petrol station forecourt have avoided prison.
Mohammed Adeeb Mirza, 26, Hmaad Bashir, 22, and Mohammed Saffeullah Mirza, 19, targeted their victims as the result of a longstanding family feud, Burnley Crown Court was told.
The trio boxed in victims Naheed Zain, the aunt of Bashir, and her husband Zain Al Ubedin, with their car before launching the violence, the court heard.
Judge Andrew Jeffries QC sentenced both Adeeb Mirza, of Willows Lane, and Bashir, of Higher Antley Street, both Accrington, to a 13-month suspended prison sentence, after they pleaded guilty to affray, with 30 days of rehabilitation activities. Both were ordered to pay Mr Zain £322 in compensation.
Sentencing Saffeullah Mirza, also of Willows Lane, who also pleaded guilty to affray, Judge Jefferies said he believed the 19-year-old had only been present on the day of the incident because of the other two defendants and would not have acted in the way he did had he been there alone.
He said: "You are educated and have a bright career ahead of you and because of what was said about your good character I will impose on you an 18-month community order and order you to undertake 100 hours of unpaid work."
Saffeullah Mirza was also made subject to a curfew and ordered to pay £322 compensation.
Suzanne Hargreaves, prosecuting, said there had been a longstanding family feud between the defendants and the victims, which had been exacerbated after Mr Al Ubedin had provoked the defendants on social media.
This feud, which had led the victims to flee their homes, came to a head on the forecourt of the Texaco garage, off Scotland Road, Nelson, on New Years' Day 2018.
The court heard the three defendants stopped at the garage and spotted the couple.
CCTV footage showed the defendants parking a car in a way so as to cut off the vehicle being driven by the victims.
They could then be seen jumping from the car before carrying out what Judge Jefferies described as a 'sustained group attack on Mr Al Ubedin.'
Roger Brown and Anam Khan, for Adeeb Mirza and Bashir respectively, said their clients were "still very young" and any previous convictions were committed as juveniles.
Shufqat Khan, for Saffeullah Mirza, said: "He has lived an exemplary lifestyle and has high aspirations and is currently studying for a degree."
