Dr. Yau is also the past president of the Hong Kong College of Orthopedic Surgeons (HKCOS), which is the official organization in training orthopedic specialists and conducting professional examination in orthopaedic surgery in Hong Kong.
Dr. Yau started his medical education at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Hong Kong (HKU) in 1987, and earned his medical degree in 1992. After completing his medical internship in 1993, Dr. Yau began his general surgical training at the Queen Mary Hospital (QMH) of Hong Kong and obtained the Fellowship of Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh (RCSEd) in 1997. He was then enrolled into the orthopaedic training program of the Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, QMH. He finished his orthopaedic residency training in 2000 and passed the fellowship examination in the same year with flying colours. He was the winner of the gold medal of the conjoint examination in orthopaedic surgery jointly held by HKCOS and RCSEd. Dr. Yau was awarded the Fellow of the HKCOS and Fellow of the Hong Kong Academy of Medicine in 2001.
