Dr. Harold E. Kleinert and Dr. Joseph Kutz
are the historical legends of hand surgery, and the foundation of what would become the team of world-renowned hand surgeons and educators of fellows, of which Kleinert Kutz Hand Care Center remains today.
Under the guidance of these two dedicated and iconic surgeons, many “successful firsts” would establish Kleinert Kutz as the leader in hand surgery with procedures that included: hand transplants, Zone II Tendon repair, digital artery repair, cross hand repair, toe to hand transfer, free epiphyseal transfer, total distal radial joint replacement, total wrist resurfacing and replacement – to name a few.
The following tribute videos show the rich history of both Dr. Kleinert and Dr. Kutz, who both played an instrumental role in hand surgery as it is known around the world today.
