I'm so sad to hear of his death. He was my hand surgeon and his bedside manner was extreme patient satisfaction. Everytime I saw him he had a smile on his face. After surgery he told me my wrist was the worse he'd ever operated on and I knew I  chose the right surgeon. If every physician had his attitude and compassion for patients the world would be a better place and healthier. 
Sincerely

My deepest sympathies I have know Dr young for 20 years and can say honestly he was one of the nicest people I’ve met my whole life.  The world was a better place because of him.

To the Young Family, I’m so very sorry for your loss. Some people are larger than life and Dr. Young was just that.  I had my carpal tunnel treated by Dr. Young on October 24th. I was shocked to hear of his passing on the 27th. As usual on the 24th we were joking and talking college football. He was in great spirits and explained exactly what he was doing. He then put his initials on my hand so we knew what hand we were doing. Upon getting the stitches out we realized the initials were still there. God Bless the Young family and thank you for sharing him with us.

Dr. Young inspired me to become a hand surgeon. I will always be grateful for his guidance, wisdom and authenticity. He will always be remembered as a truly good man.
He rests among the angels.
Prayers for his family.

Respectfully,
Dr. Levi Harrison

A gentleman and a scholar and a mentor.  When I was an orthopedic surgery resident rotating in orthopedic trauma at UMC in 2008 - he provided me with critical early guidance.   He provided an exposure to what an excellent hand surgeon is - inspiring me to pursue fellowship at the Indiana Hand Center.  I am forever grateful for that introduction and his patience with me.  I am thankful for the mentorship he would offer me during  my early practice years - when I would see him at the hand society meetings and ask for advice.   He had an excellent and humble demeanor that made him approachable and relatable.   Forever grateful for the person he was and the legacy he leaves.   Sincerely -  Mykola Bartkiw

Dr Young's skilled hands have enabled mine to create beauty in this world which sorely is in need of it.  His legacy lives on in my MCP implants. I carry part of him with me always, and cherish the memory of his exquisite compassion and deep caring for his patients.

To the family of Dr Young, 
Thank you for letting this beautiful soul be a part of our lives. Dr Young was a great mentor and a great boss. He gave me my first opportunity to strive in the Medical Field always believed in his employees and helped us to be better. You will for always be young in our hearts. You will be missed!

Colby was a great friend and an even better person.
We had many wonderful conversations over the years.  I will miss him dearly.  Our prayers are with the family.

Sending so much love to the Young family. May memories allow you to navigate the absence of his physical presence. With love, Rani Dasi

At first, a  dear Associate, then a valued Colleague, and now an immeasurable loss. So many patients were blessed to experience his kindness, skilled hands and expertise. I will miss his smile, good humor,  his valued second opinions and mutual trust.  I am very fortunate to have practiced alongside him, and then watch him grow as a valued physician and colleague in the community.

Colby was a good friend. He made me a better person. I'll miss playing tennis with him at his home.

I went to St. Xavier High School in Cincinnati with Colby and then Northwestern. This is 8th Grade Colby visiting the school open house.
