About

As a fellowship-trained sports medicine doctor and general orthopedic surgeon, Dr. David Klein specializes in all phases of musculoskeletal repair and reconstruction—from fracture care and ligament reconstruction to joint replacement and revision. Dr. Klein offers specialized treatment for a wide range of patients, including athletes with sports-related injuries and older adults whose mobility is limited by severe joint pain from arthritis. 

After earning his Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine degree from the Touro College of Osteopathic Medicine in New York, New York, Dr. Klein completed his orthopedic surgery residency at the Jersey City Medical Center in Jersey City, New Jersey. He served as the academic chief resident his final year of residency before returning to New York to gain further training in orthopedic sports medicine through a year-long fellowship at NYU Langone Orthopedic Hospital.

In his practice, Dr. Klein takes an individualized approach with each patient. He gives each patient the time and care they deserve when deciding on surgical treatment, using conservative management whenever possible. He strives to help his patients feel comfortable and secure in driving the decision-making process for the best course of treatment. He works closely with his patients in developing the treatment plan they need to reach their goals.

Dr. Klein is an active member of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, the American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine, the American Osteopathic Association, the Arthroscopy Association of North America, and AOTrauma North America. He has published and lectured extensively at local and national meetings on topics of surgical and nonsurgical treatment in sports medicine, fractures, and arthritis. Additionally, Dr. Klein is a teaching faculty member for Saint Clare’s Health and frequently provides sports team coverage. He serves as the team doctor for the Passaic-Clifton cycling team, and he provides orthopedic coverage for Chai Lifeline’s Bike4Chai annual charity bike ride sponsored by Tri-County Orthopedics. 

When he is not seeing patients, Dr. Klein spends his time with his wife and three children. He also keeps an active lifestyle, engaging in activities like road cycling and swimming.
