About me

Grant M. Kleiber, MD, is the Chair of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at MedStar Washington Hospital Center. Dr. Kleiber specializes in a broad range of peripheral nerve surgery including nerve reconstruction, nerve transfers, and nerve decompression. Dr. Kleiber’s reconstructive surgery focus is quite different from our other plastic & reconstructive surgeons. His versatile skills include:

  • Microsurgery
  • Free tissue transfer
  • Traumatic upper and lower extremity injuries including:
    • Hand and forearm fractures
    • Tendon repair and reconstruction
    • Nerve and vascular injuries
    • 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. Finally, he completed a fellowship in Hand & Peripheral Nerve Surgery and Microsurgery at Washington University’s Barnes-Jewish Hospital in St. Louis, Missouri.

Dr. Kleiber is also recognized under these highly accredited associations:

  • American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS)
  • American Society for Peripheral Nerve (ASPN)

Dr. Kleiber devotes his specialties to delicately and effectively help his patients manage pain levels and improve movement and function.


Dr. Kleiber's Philosophy of Care:

"Many of my patients have difficult problems that require creative solutions. I stay up to date with cutting edge surgical techniques to provide my patients the best possible care.

    Dr Kleiber was so CARING. I have never felt so comfortable and my anxiety complete faded away. He is truly a gem!

  • Mar 7, 2026

    Doctor Kleiber is a very on top of his profession doctor. When I had him 4 years ago for my surgery, the hospital care he provided was very good bedside manner. I like him very much.
