Dr. Youssef completed his neurosurgery residency at the prestigious Ain-Shams University in Cairo, Egypt in 2001 during which time he was able to complete a PhD in the Neurosciences through a joint program with Hahnemann University in Philadelphia. Dr. Youssef also completed a two-year pediatric neurosurgery fellowship at Hahnemann University during the mid-portion of his neurosurgical training. Following graduation he completed two fellowships in skull base surgery, the first at the University of Cincinnati from 2001-2002 and the second at the University of South Florida from 2002-2003, which included a fellowship in cerebrovascular surgery as well. With a desire to continue his medical career in the United States he entered into a second neurosurgical residency at the University of South Florida. He completed this residency in 2008 and joined the department for 6 years as a faculty member at the University of South Florida, rising from the rank of Assistant to Associate Professor. Dr. Youssef joined the Department of Neurosurgery at the University of Colorado as director of the skull base program in June of 2014. Currently he’s a Professor of Neurosurgery and Otolaryngology and Fellowship program director. He is vice chairman for education and director of the skull base surgery program.

He holds patents covering both novel surgical techniques and instrumentation for complex skull surgery. His research both in the laboratory and in the operating room have resulted in multiple publications and patents which have both advanced our understanding as well as our ability to treat both neoplastic and vascular lesions within the brain. He is the author of over 100 publications including peer-review, abstracts and book chapters. Dr. Youssef has given over 120 invited presentations nationally and internationally.

Dr. Youssef has been a pioneer in the combined endoscopic and microsurgery techniques, which has made a major change in the direction of minimally invasive surgery in our field.
