Marc Joshua Kleinberg MD

I just found out about this today. I´m deeply saddened to hear this news. Dr. Kleinberg was the best gynecologist I ever met. He took excellent care of me and he will truly be missed. Sending prayers of healing to his wife, kids, and family, whom he was very proud of.

I have just found out about this and it is devastating news. Dr. Kleinberg has been my doctor for 20 plus years. He delivered my son Adrian in 2014. He was also like a therapist to me. I´ve never felt more at ease with another doctor. My prayers go out to you, his family. Sincerely, Jane Roignant

Just learning the news of Marc´s passing has me beyond disbelief and extreme sadness. Marc helped see me through four pregnancies and the delivery of two of my children. Not only was Marc a wonderful, compassionate doctor but someone you would quickly refer to as a friend; least my husband and I did. I recall after he delivered our first child, he showed up at the hospital on his day off and said he just wanted to make sure I was okay and everything was fine. This left a lasting impression on me. One that showed what a genuine caring person he was and lead me to referring several friends to him. He would be forever remembered. Our prayers go out to his family

I just heard the terrible news about Dr. Kleinberg. He was my doctor for many years, and was the kindest soul, always speaking about his family with such deep emotion and gratitude. Life is so fragile; may he rest in peace. His memory is a blessing.
Deepest condolences to all who knew and loved him.

I am so sad to hear of Marc's passing. I had the honor to interact with him professionally, and was always impressed with his kindness and intellectual curiosity. Sending condolences to all who had the good fortune to know him. Vivian Weinblatt

I am so heartbroken to hear this news, and I send my deepest condolences to Dr. Kleinberg's family. Dr. Kleinberg was my OBGYN for over 20 years. He shepherded me through the birth of my two children, first a girl and then a boy (who he delivered), with great care and compassion. It was special for me because he shared that he was going through the same thing, as his wife was pregnant at the same time that I was with both of my children. Given our lives were in sync in this way, it always felt like he understood exactly what I was going through with parenthood. I saw him for my annual just a few weeks before he passed. He empathized with my work stress, compounded by the political moment, and encouraged me to take care of myself. We lightened when we gave updates about hour children. He was the closest thing I had to a primary care physician. He made a difference - an incredibly positive one - in my life, and I'm sure in the lives of so many other women and families. I'm sure he made every patient feel listened to and important. I'm so grateful to have had him as my doctor. I'm praying for his wife and family as they process this profound loss, and I also pray that with time the memories they hold of him will bring peace and serenity. - M. Hope Whitfield

The Northwestern Residency Class of 2024 remembers Dr. Kleinberg for his kindness, care and thoughtful teaching. He was a wonderful physician and teacher and will be greatly missed by the Northwestern community.

Dr. Kleinberg was the most kind, caring, personable, and loving doctor I´ve ever had. I saw him for 20 years, and am deeply saddened by his passing. My heart and love go out to his wife, children, loved ones and patients. His joyful spirit lives on in my heart and undoubtedly the hearts of many others. There will never be another like him, and I am grateful to have known him.

So sorry to hear about Dr Kleinberg

I was lucky to have known Dr. Kleinberg for more than eight years. Through three kids and two high-risk pregnancies, I saw him often, and every visit reminded me how funny, caring, and deeply human he was. I´ll always remember our conversations about New York and how he´d laugh at my bad jokes, even in the middle of delivery.

My heart is with his wife and kids during this incredibly difficult time. I am profoundly grateful to have been his patient, and I hope they know how respected and admired Dr. Kleinberg was by all of us.

The Dombroski family

As a patient of TAWHC for over 50 years, I am so sad about the news about Dr Kleinberg. He was a wonderful doctor and person. I loved chatting with him, especially about his garden. He was a very sympathetic listener and I always felt better after seeing him. My heart goes out to his family, friends, colleagues and loyal patients.

My condolences on your loss as Dr. Kleinberg was an amazing doctor. I just saw him in mid November and we had a great discussion so it was shocking to hear this news. Many women have had difficult interactions with some doctors and I felt a blessing having him coach me through some tough times. May you cherish his memory and may your family continue to thrive as he would have wanted.

To the Kleinberg family
Where do I begin! Dr. Kleinberg was beyond a physician, he was like family. I looked forward to my visits as we would talk about his lovely wife and the girls, the love of his life! He was always concerned about my hubby and family. We talked about the ministry as I often shared about my preaching ministry. He would say, "Lorraine, you're still preaching fire and brimstone?" I had a complicated surgery, but he'd assured me that I would be fine, and I never worried because I knew between he and God I was in great hands! I'm sure his patients all felt like the favorite, for sure I did! His service was par excellence! Where will I find another doctor like him? I was looking forward to seeing him soon. Wife, daughters, and family, just know you are in my prayers and thoughts. The scripture says, "Earth has no sorrows that Heaven cannot healed!" Forever missed and loved!

Dr Kleinberg - what an incredible Dr. he delivered my (20) year old daughter . I´m in shock & deeply saddened for his wife´s & children´s & family´s loss. I saw him one month ago & we "caught up" on life , kids & how fast time flys . This is a huge loss - as there are just not men in the world like Dr. Kleinberg .

To: The Kleinberg family,


Dr. Kleinberg was an amazing physician. Actually, he was more than a doctor; he was family. Since the age of 20, he has been my doctor. More importantly, he supported me through every season of my life as I graduated college, got married, and gave birth to two beautiful children, which were both high-risk pregnancies. His steadfast and undaunted dedication to medicine, along with building authentic relationships with patients, significantly contributed to positive medical outcomes. I saw him a month ago for my annual visit, and I updated him on the kids and my husband. In addition, I always asked about his wife Elise, the kids, and his parents back east. He was a doctor of three generations in my family including my grandmother, mother, aunt, and I. He was simply the best, and I am so blessed to have had him as my doctor for the last 22 years. He was the epitome of a model physician and he is simply irreplaceable. I will keep the Kleinberg family and the AWHC in my thoughts and prayers.

The Atkins Family

At the height of the COVID pandemic in 2020 I had an emotional breakdown in Marc´s Michigan Avenue office and he offered me a hug. That´s the kind of doctor and man he was-luminous, empathic, kind, and deeply, deeply human. I am, and will always remain deeply grateful for his care, his humor, his warmth, the way he was just a person with his patients. I will miss him.

To Dr. Kleinberg entire family you have my sincere condolences and prayers. I am so grateful that Dr. Kleinberg was my doctor. He delivered all my grandchildren which means I referred my daughter, daughter law, and several friends and colleagues to him. He was the best doctor a girl could have. I am grateful that his family shared him with me and my family. I will always remember him and he will remain in my heart. I feel like I knew Mrs. Kleinberg and the children. He always shared stories about you all and I always inquired as well. He was my doctor for 21 yrs. I will continue to keep your family and AWHC in my prayers and thoughts.

I have been a patient of this practice for over 30 years, and during that time, I have come to deeply appreciate the compassion and dedication shown by everyone here. While I have been under the care of Dr. Sibul, my daughter was a devoted patient of Dr. Kleinburg. She trusted him completely and often shared how he made her feel genuinely seen, valued, and cared for.

Dr. Kleinburg had a remarkable way of connecting with people. He carried a calm, reassuring presence that made patients feel safe during vulnerable moments. His professionalism was matched by a warmth that made my daughter feel understood-not just as a patient, but as a person. His kindness, honesty, and gentle spirit were qualities she admired and depended on.

Our family is truly heartbroken over his passing. We are grateful for the care he provided and for the comfort and confidence he brought into my daughter´s life. Dr. Kleinburg will be remembered not only as an exceptional physician but as a compassionate human being whose impact reached far beyond medicine. Thank you for making my daughter feel seen.

With heartfelt sympathy to his family, colleagues, and all who were touched by his life and work.

The Jordan and Herbert Family

My heart is very heavy today as I hear about Dr. Kleinberg´s sudden passing. He provided excellent care to me, my sister and my nieces. Sending condolences to his family and the staff at AWHC.

We are so very sad to learn the news of Dr. Kleinberg's passing. His compassion, humor, and superb medical skills will be greatly missed. Our hearts are with his family, friends, colleagues, and patients. Wishing his wife and children peace and strength.

Dear Kleinberg Family, your Kipling Family is thinking of all of you at this very sad time. Sincerely, Lisa Pfeffer

These were the most unimaginable words to hear on Friday. After working with Dr. Kleinberg for 11 years, he was a true friend. My prayers are with Elise, Evie and Ben. I am truly sorry for your loss.

Dr. Kleinberg was truly one of a kind. He delivered my daughters under complicated circumstances, and my husband and I will be forever grateful for his skill, compassion, and steady presence during those moments. He had a rare ability to make his patients feel completely safe and deeply cared for. Our hearts are with your family during this incredibly difficult time. Please know how profoundly grateful his patients are, and how deeply respected and admired Dr. Kleinberg was by all of us.

Dear Kleinberg family - I am so sorry for your loss. I met Dr. Kleinberg almost 25 years ago and he was always the constant through my difficult pregnancies and the emotional toll those took. He helped me when I broke my arm at 9 months pregnant, he came back to the hospital the minute he was allowed to after an on-call shift so he could deliver my first child, and he has been a source of such compassion and care throughout my entire adult life. His loss is immense for our community. Thank you for sharing your husband and father with us, and even though his passing is devastating please know that his impact and the families and women he´s helped will never be forgotten.

I am so sorry to hear of Dr. Kleinberg's passing. He helped my husband and I become parents. It was not an easy road. We speak of him often and we will never forget his humor, professionalism, his warmth and his dedication. For the past 16 years, I have referred every woman who asked me about getting a new OB/GYN to him. He was a wonderful medical provider and human. I will forever be grateful for the care he provide to me. May his memory be a blessing.

My heart is truly broken to hear this sad news. I met Dr Kleinberg for the first time when Dr Mercer retired. I had complications in my pregnancy and walked into the Chicago office to find that my long time Dr had retired and here was this new Doctor. I was scared and didn´t know what to expect. I remember his bedside manner at a time that I really needed it most and these two things he said to me "we are in this together" and "if I am worried I will let you know then you can be worried - but I am not worried". Two beautiful kids later (now 20 &19) Dr Kleinberg was there for the two most important days of my life. Every time I came to office he asked "how are the kids? Let me see pictures!" He was the loveliest person and his loss will be felt by so many. Sending love, strength and many prayers to his family now - may they know he did make the world an immensely better place.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Dr. Kleinberg was the best doctor I had the fortune of knowing. His empathy as my family was going through struggles was a warm light. He was a truly special person.

Such tragic news! Mark was a caring, loving doctor and friend who always had time to ask about you and your family. Mark will be missed not only by his loving family, but by all those whose lives he touched with his big big smile and caring ways!
