Yates, York MD is rated 5.0 out of 5.0 based on 675 ratings.
This has been the most amazing experience I’ve ever had with a surgeon. Dr. Yates is the kindest and most comforting person I’ve been around. Especially in the medical field. I was pretty positive my body wasn’t happy with my implants (done from a different surgeon) for 6 years I had weird reactions and horrible pain. As dramatic as it sounds some days I felt I was on my death bed. I couldn’t leave my bed with horrible pain, headaches, and the list goes on. I did a lot of research on who I wanted to go to for an explant, lift, and fat transfer. I am going on 4 weeks almost and am so completely happy with the way I look. I actually want to cry with how much better I feel. I was not expecting to look this good either! He’s actually an artist. Recovery was beyond the easiest I’ve ever had. Everything he and his staff did I truly believe is what led to an amazing recovery. I even felt good enough to just take Tylenol and not pain medication. I can’t recommend him enough. I can’t even explain how thankful I am to have my life back Dr. Yates. His staff is very friendly as well. The anesthesiologist was awesome!March 5, 2021

I had a wonderful experience with Dr Yates and his staff. Everyone was so kind and welcoming. His staff was extremely helpful when I needed guidance. Dr Yates took the time to help me when I really struggled with picking a size and when I expressed what look I was trying to achieve he helped me stay true to my desired natural look for my breast augmentation. Recovery was a breeze from day 1 and I tell everyone that it’s because I had an amazing surgeon!! I am grateful for his knowledge and skills and for being so direct. I would always recommend him.February 19, 2021

Such a trusting physician!!! Aside from his outstanding professionalism, respect, knowledge, and wisdom, this surgeon knows exactly how to achieve your desired looks without being pushy for something you may not really want. He makes sure you have all of the information you need to make the best educated decision yourself. My surgery was over a year ago and I have not had any concerns or complications. He, including his staff, are all wonderful to communicate with and you never feel like you have to wait days for a response. All of the staff were amazing to work with and I would recommend this practice to anyone wanting to enhance their looks according to your personal vision.February 18, 2021

First I wanted to give a shoutout to Melissa at the front desk for being so kind and answering all of my many questions. She was very professional, friendly and informative.Thanks a bunch Melissa! Last but not least I wanted to thank Dr. York Yates for my amazing BBL results! I am super picky and he exceeded my expectations. He really listens to you and what you’re wanting. You can tell that he really cares and takes pride in his work. He is a true artist and I wouldn’t go to anyone else. Thank you guys so much!October 13, 2020

The staff was extremely kind and professional. This was my first cosmetic surgery, so I had some general concerns but they made the process more than easy. Dr Yates was attentive and available for all of my questions leading up to the surgery and even after. And I had a lot of questions. He listened to what I described and the look that I was going for. One thing, I especially appreciated was his ability to translate my wishes into realistic outcomes in the pre-op appointment. I am 5'3" and 150 lb and he made sure they weren't too large so that my body would be balanced. I am EXTREMELY happy with the results and wish I had done this for myself sooner. I went with 415 cc silicone unders (high profile). They've dropped and fluffed so naturally and filled in where my breasts were deflated due to weight loss - and it's only been less than two months. I'm can't express my gratitude enough towards Dr Yates and his staff. If I choose to get any other cosmetic surgeries in the future, I will definitely be back.January 28, 2021

I went to Dr. Yates for a breast lift and augmentation as well as a tummy tuck. He was very professional and answered all of my questions as well as my husband’s questions. His staff was very friendly and helped calm my fears on the day of surgery. I couldn’t have dreamt of better results! He was a true artist! The results were minimal and Dr. Yates was able to help me chose the breast size and shape that worked well with my body type. However, he treated me and my husband with the utmost respect and did not push anything on me.

Dr. Yates is a true artist. Selected the gummy bear natural tear drop for my augmentation and they are perfect. Symmetry, drop and size look beautiful. I’m so happy and would highly recommend using Dr. Yates for any of your cosmetic surgery needs.

At age 50 I was having problems with certain parts of my body where I could just not lose the fat. Being a marfan as well does not help. As I am a heart patient, having any invasive surgery can be risky. Not to mention quite a bit more monitored. I opted to go for “coolsculpting”. having read about the procedure and the expected results on line. There would be no cutting or anesthesia needed. And as I was not seeing results in those specific areas with normal diet and exercise. I decided to try it. The areas needed to be worked on were my lower chest (around the nipples), and my belly. Which had been greatly extended because of 7 previous hernia surgeries. Lindsey was extremely helpful in making me as comfortable as possible , and informed me of what to expect during the procedure. And I was easily ready for this. The amount of pain was quite tolerable for me in all 3 instances (Though I must admit I have a very high tolerance for pain from many years of athletic conditioning.). First being my belly. a few months later being my chest. and then finally a few months later for a second attempt at my belly.( As I had mentioned. This are was greatly over extended.) I am very confident with the results as I am able to wear my pants “normally” (because of the previous bulge of the belly , I had to wear my pants “too high up” to keep them from slipping off. My chest also looks significantly better as I no longer look like I have breast tissue in the region of my lower chest. people have commented that I “look better” though the changes were so slow and subtle that they just assumed it was through diet and exercise. And only a tiny handful of friends know the truth about it. I am very pleased with the results, and though I might consider a third round of treatment on my belly. At this point I am going to wait and see till ALL results are in. –

Dr. York Yates is a true artist and highly skilled plastic surgeon. I am ecstatic about the results on my “mini tummy tuck” abdominalplasty… My stomach looks better now than when I was 20 years old!!! I search for over a year to find the right plastic surgeon that could create near flawless results. I am a practitioner myself and I spoke with many of my friends in order to narrow it down to a couple surgeons. Once I narrowed it down I saw actual previous patients of Dr. York Yates and it was easy to make the decision in selecting him. He truly cared and made sure I was completely satisfied with the end results. I couldn’t be more happy and I have recommended him to all that have ask.

I am a 24 year old girl who needed a breast reduction DESPERATELY. The service provided to me was outstanding. The staff was kind and addressed all of my questions and concerns. Dr. Yates was so personable, professional, and reassuring. He worked with incredible efficiency, accuracy, and confidence. I knew that he would give me his absolute best work before the end of our first meeting. The results were shockingly successful and so satisfactory, that I wept. If ever needed in the future, I will always go to Dr. Yates from here on out. I’m SO HAPPY.
