Gil, who specializes in treating hand and upper extremity conditions, is particularly interested in brachial plexus injuries, nerve conditions, tendon transfers, soft tissue reconstruction, wrist and finger arthritis, athletic wrist injuries and upper extremity trauma.
Kleinhenz’s specialty is treating neck and back problems and also treats conditions related to disk herniation, degenerative cervical, thoracic, lumbar disease, spine trauma, and spine deformity.
He completed a residency in orthopedic surgery at Brown University and The Miriam Hospital and Rhode Island Hospital, and completed a separate fellowship in spine surgery at Brown University and Rhode Island Hospital.
Gil completed an orthopedic surgery residency and orthopedic trauma fellowship at Brown University before completing a hand, upper extremity and microvascular surgery fellowship at the Mayo Clinic.
Dr. Edward Akelman, president of University Orthopedics, said the addition of both surgeons is welcome.
“Dr. Kleinhenz has demonstrated an eagerness to treat patients using the latest technological advances available,” he said, adding that Dr. Gil’s “passion for advanced orthopedic research aligns with our mission to deliver care integrated with world class education and research.”
