Yates, York MD is rated 5.0 out of 5.0 based on 675 ratings.
I can’t say enough amazing things about Dr. York Yates and my experience with my Preserve breast augmentation with mastopexy! From start to finish, the entire process was so easy and comfortable. The staff was amazing and very responsive to all my questions. One of my favorite parts of the process was the pre-op digital imaging Dr. Yates provides. Being able to actually see what my potential results could look like made such a huge difference for me. I remember feeling SO emotional when he pulled up the images. I was overwhelmed with relief and excitement- I literally cried happy tears seeing the possibilities. After years of wondering what I could look like, seeing that image gave me so much confidence and reassurance going into surgery. The surgery and recovery were honestly SO much easier than I expected. I woke up feeling like I had just taken the best nap ever, with no pain at all. Any discomfort I experienced during recovery was easily managed with over the counter medication. I was genuinely surprised by how smooth and easy the recovery was! I’m now 6 weeks post-op and feel completely back to normal. Most importantly, I absolutely LOVE my results! Dr. Yates gave me the look I was hoping for, and the boost in confidence has been incredible. I feel so much more comfortable and confident in my body.October 7, 2026

Dr. York Yates is amazing! I had an implant replacement with a reduction sizing, and the results exceeded my expectations. Dr. Yates is extremely knowledgeable, and I am so glad I trusted his guidance on my sizing. The staff was super attentive and made me feel so comfortable. On top of that, the facilities are beautiful and very thoughtfully designed - they even have a private area with refreshments for my mom while she waited for me on surgery day! It was truly a one-of-a-kind experience. I’m so grateful to Dr. Yates and his staff!September 30, 2026

I joined the Army at 17 and when you go through that training, you drop body fat like mad! In 8 weeks I was down to 3% and guess what? My breasts were gone! I went from a C+/D to a flat A. Talk about shocking. A woman is a woman no matter her best size but once you grow into your adult body, your breasts are an unpretentious part of your overall image. Now, 30 years later and on the downhill side of menopause, after life and babies, they still hadn't returned. It takes a toll on a woman when her body changes so drastically that she doesn't recognize herself. That toll is largely self-esteem and depression. I had wanted the corrective surgery to restore my body for 30 years but hadn't found a surgeon I could have enough confidence in to risk an elective surgery (especially since I have a genetic bleeding disorder). I moved to Utah 5 years ago and started researching doctors here. Website before/afters, client reviews, and even the medical board records. Dr. Yates has a stellar record in his field and his results (before/after) had the mark of an artist. My grandmother was a breast cancer survivor so I learned through her about reconstructive surgery that looked and felt as close to natural as possible. Many plastic surgeons churn out cheap looking conveyor belt breast augmentations and Dr. Yates does NOT do that. During my initial consult, he made clear that he also had very high personal standards for his profession which I appreciate even more. Integrity is priceless! He and his staff explained everything, in great detail, and spent a lot of time answering my endless nervous questions. They made sure I was informed and comfortable throughout this process and I have no doubt they will continue to do so for the rest of my check-ins this year. I was also greatly impressed with Glen, my anesthesiologist! I've never known any medical professional that can set a line without me feeling it! He needs to train others because it seemed like magic! Thank you so much to Dr. Yates, Glen and his entire team!! You've given back to me a part of myself I never thought I would see again! I, and those who love me, can't thank you enough! 🩷September 29, 2026

Dr. Yates is an exceptional surgeon! I sought his care after a 22-year-old implant ruptured, and I couldn’t be happier with my results. He is kind, highly knowledgeable, and attentive, taking the time to listen without recommending unnecessary procedures. I initially thought I needed a tummy tuck, but he determined that liposuction would be sufficient. I’m beyond thrilled with the outcome and the entire experience! Thank you Dr. Yates and staff!September 21, 2026

Highly recommend. Dr. Yates took the time to explain concepts with patience and professionalism. When I was unsure what procedure to go with, the assistants were conversational in regards to what I wanted and helped me decide in a down-to-earth way.September 19, 2026

Dr. Yates and his staff are fantastic. Since I live in a rural town in southern Utah, they made the pre/post visits easy. From the front desk to the nurses to the anesthesiologist to Dr. Yates, I was treated with kindness and respect. Dr. Yates repaired 20-year-old ruptured implants (from a different surgical practice). Both breasts now sit where they should. The APP is easy to use and Dr. Yates even responded on a Saturday. That was completely unexpected and much appreciated.September 8, 2026

WHY Dr. York Yates, and WHY Emsculpt? I’ve done a fair amount of research into this new body sculpting service called Emscuplt. My research into this new body sculpting technology, was due to a back injury I suffered a couple years back. You see, I herniated my L4 & L5 via kickboxing, and ever since then, my core has been weak. Performing typical core exercises, as well as squats, deadlifts, and any form of twisting has been difficult, and sometimes painful. I became sick of my situation, as many give in to surgery or live with the pain and limitations. This wasn’t going to be the path or options for me. I knew I had to find a solution and I knew there had to be an option on the market, and then I found: Emscuplt. Research has shown patients who use this service for four treatments will on average: increase muscle mass, muscle definition, and over all muscle strength. In my excitement, I look at options/ doctors who have and offer this service. There are very few in the market, and most charge between $1,000 -$1,500 a session!?! Crazy right? Luckily, I continued my search and found Dr York Yates. I called and came in for an appointment. I met with Tori, and she informed of their service and shared with me that Dr Yates tries these services on himself, before ever offering to his patients. I was thrilled to hear this. And my excitement grew as she informed me of their pricing and current specials, which was a heck of a lot less than the other providers. I went for it. I’m 10 sessions in, as I’ve treated my abs, my triceps, my quads. My strength is way up, along with my muscle mass and definition. I’ve enjoyed the results of this service so much, and a bigger part of the enjoyment is working with Tori. She is fantastic, and really goes above and beyond to make you comfortable and enjoy your time, enough though each session is only 30 minutes or less 🙂

Excellent, kind, professional Doctor and staff. I had stellar experiences each visit, and all through my surgery. CRNA was amazing, made me feel comfortable and safe. I know his name started with a “G”…, but I am spacing the rest. I was referred, never disappointed and will continue to pay it forward by referring again and again. ❤️❤️

Dr. Yates and his staff are the best! My surgery was such a wonderful experience and my results are amazing. My only regret is waiting so long to get the courage to do it. I am thrilled with my results and will definitely recommend Dr. Yates over and over again.

Dr. York Yates is an incredible surgeon! I had a breast augmentation done and I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome! He is a perfectionist and is very meticulous in everything he does. From the moment I walked in to his office, I immediately felt comfortable. Him and his staff are compassionate, caring, and go out of their way to make sure you are satisfied. I cannot express enough how amazing Dr. York Yates is!
I have been so impressed with Dr. Yates, his staff and have had the best experience. Dr. Yates performed a breast augmentation on me 3 weeks ago and I almost wish I needed more surgery so I could keep going back. The initial consult was not only informative but FUN! They were incredibly patient and helpful while I was choosing the type of implant, profile and size. Dr. Yates offers 3D imaging so you can see the selected implant and size on your actual body to help you make a final decision. He explained what sizes, implants and profile would best fit my anatomy and why, went over my personal goals, lifestyle and measured me. He went over pros and cons, took the time to answer all of my questions and put my mind at ease. He had a good amount of available dates that weren’t too far out and offered an awesome incentive to book within a week of my consult. My pre-operative appointment was just as fun, they had me try the sizers on again to confirm size and implant, measured me again, went over all pre and post op instructions and prescribed me the medications I would need to bring with me the day of surgery. Surgery went SO WELL! He performs surgery in his amazing clinic, it was private and very comfortable. He doesn’t typically use general anesthesia which was amazing for me because I was able to wake up easily and didn’t have any nausea after at all. They have been so attentive and quick to respond to any questions or concerns I may have had. Dr. Yates did a BEAUTIFUL job, I’m in love with the results so far. He’s very knowledgeable, patient, kind, he’s an actual artist, has an amazing eye for what will yield the most beautiful results… he’s the best of the best in Utah (or in any state for that matter!!). 10/10 would recommend and if I ever do need anything else done, I would without a doubt be returning. Don’t hesitate to book with him, you won’t regret it.
