After a 2 year try at establishing a photography career in New York City, Weinman earned his MD at NYU and completed an internal medicine residency at Columbia and a gastroenterology fellowship at Harvard. He joined his Savannah practice in 1988.

Weinman's camera has continued to accompany him on his world travels throughout his medical career.
