Dr. Young You always knew he wanted to be a surgeon, but it was not until completing his general surgical residency that he was drawn to orthopaedics. Dr. You received a BA from the College of Liberal Arts and Science and earned his medical degree from the Medical College of Seoul National University in Seoul, Korea. He then completed his surgical internship at the New Hanover Memorial Hospital in Wilmington, North Carolina, and one year of general surgery residency at the Lutheran Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland. Dr. You finished his formal medical training with an orthopaedic surgery residency at the National Orthopedic & Rehabilitation Hospital in Arlington, Virginia.

With more than twenty-four years of orthopaedic experience and service in the Alexandria area, Dr. You has special interests in knee injury, including ACL reconstruction and arthroscopy, endoscopic carpal tunnel surgery, arthroscopic and open shoulder surgery, joint replacement, and fracture care.
