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

An Accurately Written Customer Review I am, by far, one of the most investigative individuals when I am looking to find the best doctors to work with me. Whether it be an Internist, Dentist, OBGYN, whatever the title, I look for and expect dedicated, knowledgeable, and skilled professionals that have ethics just as outstanding. Dr. York Yates has and continues to be by far the most exceptional doctor that I have ever worked with . He has an emphatic ear and he really listened to what it was that I had to say. He was able to hear what my concerns and needs were and then he pulled together all the pieces by using his skill and expertise and the outcome was perfection. I have had two procedures by Dr. Yates and what I have experienced is first rate, top quality work with the aesthetic beauty that I only dreamed of. Dr. Yates staff was, as well, skilled and knowledgeable in their area of expertise. From the first time I was there I was seen promptly and treated with care. The extra amount of time that they spend with me answering my questions reassured me that I was in good hands. I have now had my sister go see Dr. Yates and she too is extremely pleased with every detail of her experience. We both can attest that when you experience Dr. Yates and his staff you experience the best. I hope this review has helped with any questions you may have about Dr. Yates as he definitely belongs in the five star category.
I recently came in for a breast augmentation surgery and I am absolutely in love with the entire experience. I am not from Utah but the entire staff made me feel comfortable and happy with my decision from start to finish. The staff was able to adjust my appointments to my schedule and always sent me reminders of them. Dr. Yates was able to answer all of my questions and was very easy to talk to about the process. He was very honest on what would look nice with my body type and didn’t rush me when we made the final decision. Dr. Yates and his staff are amazing and I would recommend them. The results are amazing and exactly what I expected.

I had an abdominoplasty done by Dr. Yates on 6/26/14. I live in Houston so I communicated with Sandy, his patient coordinator. She set the bar high as she was quick to communicate, very helpful with information, and easy to talk to. I am from Washington but travel from state to state for my job and had several in person consultations from Washington to California to Oklahoma & Texas before my research brought me to Dr. Yates in Utah. His website is user friendly, he posts the range of prices for his procedures, he has before & after pictures, as well as information for the person seeking facts. I set my appointment several times before I finally got my time off approved, Sandy was very patient with me as well as encouraging. I had my consult with Dr. Yates on the 25th. He was matter of fact, intuitive, and answered my barrage of questions. The thing I appreciated the most was that he was very upfront with me and wanted to know what my expectations were. I have my name tattooed across my stomach and he was able to make it look better than it did before while I was told in other consultations that it didn’t matter or would be distorted. The nurses and anesthesiologist were the best in the business (I have had 5 C-sections). The last thing I remember is Lindsay smiling at me with her beautiful blue eyes and the anesthesiologist singing. My recovery has been quick and painless. I still have the drain tubes in but it is part of the process. The thing that sets Dr. Yates apart from the 5 or 6 other places I went is that he talked to me on a level that I understood and felt comfortable & confident with, the communication is on point, the Dr.’s office is nice, the staff is amazing, and Dr. Yates took the time like I was the only patient in the world. He is creative, knowledgeable, experienced, passionate and good looking!!!! Thank you Dr. Yates! I look forward to seeing you in a month for my next procedure!
York and his very friendly staff sure made us feel at home. The pre-op consult was very informative and they took time to walk us through every question and concern we had. The day of operation was the same way, they all treated us like we were they’re top priority. York did a magnificent job and the outcome was flawless!! Thanks again! – Austin

Dr. Yates is wonderfully warm and puts you at ease with his expertise and concern for your specific needs. I would highly reccommend him, as would my three daughters who have gone to him.

Overall, I had a wonderful consultation with Dr. Yates. He was kind, thorough in his exam and made me feel comfortable. Time spent deciding size with the try-on sizers could have been a bit longer. I felt a little rushed and came home not even remembering the sizes I tried on and which size I liked the most. The 3D image was the most amazing tool for prospective patients. Dr Yates’ professional opinion lined up with what we both thought would look good for my frame. I did not feel I was being sold on why he would be a great choice. I liked his confidence and felt he and his staff were very knowledgeable. Besides the already great reviews and ratings I’d read online, the 3D image really helped me feel confident in my choice of Dr. Yates and his staff. I can not wait for my upcoming preop appointments and surgery.
