Speaker

Thomas G. Klein, DO

Dr. Klein is a board-certified Interventional Pain Management Specialist. He was raised in the Midwest and has practiced pain management since 2009. Dr. Klein originally went to school and practiced as a podiatric surgeon. He later went to Des Moines University to study anesthesia and pain management. This education gives Dr. Klein pain management knowledge from head to toe. Dr. Klein entered the pain management field because he believes that pain is best managed by examining the body as a whole rather than individual parts.
