Dr Ayman Khoury · MD, MHA
Two specialist qualifications in Israel, microsurgery and a dedicated fellowship year in Taiwan combine into one functional approach to nerve reconstruction.
Professional foundation
Dr Ayman Khoury is a specialist in orthopaedic and hand surgery, practising microsurgery and peripheral nerve surgery. His work focuses on the diagnosis, decompression and reconstruction of complex nerve injury while considering the entire functional system.
The first two years of Dr Khoury's surgical career were in thoracic surgery. This developed a broad understanding of chest anatomy and thoracic trauma—an important foundation for evaluating the brachial plexus and thoracic outlet.
Orthopaedic training at Hadassah Ein Kerem included extensive exposure to severe injury and major trauma. It shaped an approach that considers nerve injury together with bone, joint, muscle, soft tissue and overall limb function.
Dr Khoury subsequently completed recognized hand-surgery specialist training in Israel and advanced his work in upper-extremity reconstruction and microsurgical techniques.
Advanced training in hand and reconstructive microsurgery at National University Hospital Singapore broadened his exposure to complex reconstruction, brachial plexus conditions and microsurgical procedures.
Dedicated fellowship · Taiwan
The fellowship focused exclusively on peripheral nerve and advanced reconstructive surgery: brachial plexus injury, nerve transfers, facial reanimation, thoracic outlet syndrome, nerve-related headache and functional limb reconstruction.
Dr Khoury now combines clinical work in hand, microsurgical and peripheral nerve surgery with research, professional writing and public medical education through Nerve Israel.
Clinical approach
The first task is to localize the problem, assess severity, consider the time window and understand the patient's priorities. Observation or rehabilitation may be appropriate; in other cases, decompression or reconstruction can be considered.
