Dr. Younai has been educated and trained to a degree that makes him a uniquely qualified hand and wrist surgeon, a true hand specialist. He has a rare combination of the artistic skills vital to a plastic surgeon as well as extensive Hand and Microsurgery fellowship training at one of the most prestigious Hand Surgery Institutions at the University of Pittsburgh. He followed this by more training in Reconstructive Surgery fellowship at Lahey Clinic, affiliated with Harvard medical program.
