    • Soft tissue de-gloving injuries
    • Burn injuries and reconstruction
  • Nerve reconstruction including:
    • Brachial plexus injury
    • Nerve tumors
    • Occipital neuralgia headaches
    • Chronic nerve compression (Carpal tunnel, cubital tunnel)
    • Nerve transfers and nerve grafts

Dr. Kleiber completed his medical doctorate at the University of Southern California, Keck School of Medicine. Dr. Kleiber later completed his Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery residency at the University of Chicago Medical Center.
