Dr. Stephen Klinge, MD

I have seen Dr. Kling for years now and followed him from another practice because he helped my mother with her hip and did an outstanding job. He took the time to share all the options I had for my shoulder pain. We started with injections which helped for a while. I had surgery with him when it was time and I’m like a new man after recovery. I was told he was the best by someone who works at Lahey and they were right.

Dr. Klinge took on a complex hip surgery for me that finally allowed me to walk comfortably again . .after eight long years. He was warm and caring and took the time to talk to me and my husband about our worries, as I a few chrinic health problems and am a smoker. I have to add this as one of the patients who reviewed him said he believes a slow office call after a good surgery means the doctor was punishing him! A little crazy of that patient. He never made me feel rushed and his assistant was also very helpful when I met with him before and after the surgery. At another "top" Boston hospital I also checked out I saw a PA. There, you wouldn't even see the actual doctor until surgery! I feel lucky to have this doctor.

I saw Dr. Klinge in March for a hip surgery and he was so smart and helpful. Even scheduled me on short notice and did my surgery in evening time to help me. I know some patients can be difficult and demanding and blame doctor and staff for being busy, but he went way out of his way for me. Best part, no more pain! Thank you doctor Klinge!

I saw Dr. Klinge for knee injury 3/2023. He injected the knee and it no longer pained me. On 5/30/23 I woke up repeatedly during the night w/severe sudden pain every 1/2 hour. By morning I tried to make a follow up appointment but his nurse refused to speak to me and the secretary she passed me to put me on hold 4 times without hearing me, and then said I needed to have an X-ray and start over with a PA I’d never seen before. I’m not about to start the process all over since I’d already been treated by the surgeon. This would be a backwards walk. The impression I got on my visit with Dr. Klinge in March left me with a good impression except that his ego preceded his actual treatment. And my experience today reinforces that he’s got an agenda that does NOT include consideration of the patient. I did not call his office back in April since my knee was painless and I had two traumatic family losses at that time. The attitude today reflects a punitive aura. I won’t have my time usurped

Dr Klinge and his right hand man Greg M. are both great I had a major bicycle accident and pretty much shattered my lower left leg (tibia,and fibula) Dr Klinge did the surgery and now a year later you can barely see the scars. I also have metal screws and rods in my leg. As far as office visits i felt very comfortable with both him and Greg, they listened to me and advised me . Being i am 64 years old and needed to be put on disability for my injury they were very understanding and helpful through the whole process. Still difficult to do stairs and some incline but i am walking. i would highly recommend

Great doc. Went through all the options and treated my shoulder pain with an injection. Feel 95 percent better.

We understand the doctor is a surgery specialist - but he tends to push surgery as an option first despite multiple other factors, such as the age and health condition of the patient. Felt like a sales job.

he handled my surgery so well I couldn't think of going to anyone else. even his secretary, Claudia, is exceptional. great care.
