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.

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!

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! 🩷

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!

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.

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.

I’ve had 3 great experiences with Dr. Yates – breast augmentation in 2016, tummy tuck in 2023, and implant replacement/reduction in 2025. I wouldn’t go anywhere else or trust anyone else with plastic surgery. The staff are amazing and Dr. Yates is a wonderful doctor and artist.
I am 3 weeks into recovery from my tummy tuck. As background, I delivered my children via C Sections. The scaring, scar tissue were very unsightly and created problems for me throughout my adult life. Add to it the years of weight gain and now due to my dramatic weight loss only compounded my problem. The flabby skinn, the fit of my clothes, how I felt about myself, my self esteem; ladies you get the picture. If you are a mom, you 100% understand what I am referring to. I finally decided to do something about it, did my research and found Dr. Yates. He was recommended to me by a close friend. To say that I am overjoyed is an understatement!!! The pre visit, the day of surgery, the post-surgery treatment, the facilities, the professionalism of everyone involved was truly professional and were a pleasure to work with. There was no judgement by any of his staff, and during my pre visit consultation, he was positive that he could help me with my identified problem. He nor his staff ever tried to upsell me on any additional procedures. They understood what I wanted to have accomplished, how I wanted it to look. They walked me through the entire process, end to end. What a pleasure!!! The post surgical experience, let me say this. I did not take ANY narcotics for pain management. I only took Tylenol and by the 5th day after surgery, I was off of ALL Pain meds. If I ever decide to have additional cosmetic surgeries, if any of my friends need cosmetic surgery, I will 10,000% recomend Dr. Yates, Hands down!!! Thank You for making what I presumed was going to be an embarrasing, unbearable situation a beautiful outcome. Today, Dr. Yates, you were correct, the tears that I had in my eyes at the 3 week post surgical visit were definitely Happy Tears, Tears of Joy!!!!. Thank You for everything!!!
Dr. Yates and his staff were amazing from day one. From the first day I met them in person at my consultation they were so friendly and welcoming. I was able to address all my concerns with Dr. Yates and he made sure I understood what would be expected, made sure I had realistic expectations with my breast augmentation and helped me pick out the right implants for me. He was so personable and his bedside manner was amazing. One of my favorite things was the fact that he made me well aware of what the procedure would change for me, and it really helped me understand my frame and how the same implants won’t look the same on every body. Overall I would absolutely recommend Dr. Yates. I have absolutely no complaints with anything and I am three weeks post op!!!
I had the most amazing experience with Dr. York Yates & his staff. I traveled from out of state to him, based on lots of referrals where I live. I am on day 2 recovery of an implant exchange from ruptured breast implants from a previous plastic surgeon. The process was so simple and I am recovering so well, even with removing ruptured implants. I have hardly any swelling or pain post op. I will be going to Dr. York Yates for everything in the future. Thank you for taking the time with my in depth pre-op visit (measuring, assessing and suggesting the best route to take) I will be recommending you and your staff to everyone 🤍🤍🤍
Friendly and caring staff. Dr. Yates is professional and truly an artist.
After a disappointing experience with a previous plastic surgeon, meeting Dr. Yates and his team was a breath of fresh air. They were knowledgeable, professional and focused on my comfort, never trying to upsell me. Their expertise and genuine care gave me the confidence to completely redo my breast augmentation, have a lift and correct the complications from my prior surgery. The results exceeded my expectations. The aftercare was phenomenal, and communication with Dr. Yates through their app made the entire process seamless. I will be recommending them to friends and family.
Love Dr Yates his office staff are all very friendly and helpful. The office itself was so comfortable. Dr Yates did a great job had little to no pain after and my scars look so much better.
I’m only a day out from my surgery with Dr. York Yates and his incredible team, and I already feel such gratitude. From the moment I stepped into the office I felt seen, heard, and genuinely cared for. Every interaction from consultation through post op has been marked by kindness, clarity, and professionalism. The process has been smooth, the support has been unwavering, and the results have already exceeded my hopes. It is a powerful feeling to place your trust in someone and know it was the right choice. If you’re looking for a surgeon and team who truly go above and beyond, look no further.
Went in with a rupture. The whole team was exceptional. I felt genuinely cared for. I’m still on the mend, but so far they look better than ever, and I was pretty happy with what I originally had. He was meticulous, very easy to talk to, and I felt listened to on every level. I would trust him with any type of cosmetic procedure at this point.
I’ve been a repeat patient of Dr. York Yates, and it will continue to stay that way. Dr. York Yates is very gentle and listens thoroughly to your ideas and wants. The receptionist is very kind and helpful. The staff is very friendly; I feel very comfortable asking any questions . I’m currently writing this review right after surgery. I have zero pain, only mild discomfort. I’m so excited to see my results. Thank you, Dr. York Yates.
