Dr Yates is a wonderful and skilled surgeon. I spoke with a couple of surgeons but ultimately decided that Dr Yates experience from working in this industry for so long and his honesty about results made him the best choice. Any time I told someone who I was going to for my breast augmentation they would say, “he’s the best around!”. When I talked to Dr Yates the first time I was willing to pay anything for the best results, but he didn’t take advantage of that or try to upsell me at all. He made suggestions he thought would look best with the least amount of scars and trouble, and it wasn’t all of the extras I thought I needed. And he was right!! I thought that told me so much about him as a surgeon. My results have been amazing, no issues. And Dr Yates has been there every time I’ve needed a question answered or had a concern, he responds via the app right away every time. His team has been great too. I’m so happy with my results and would do it again in a heartbeat! Thanks Dr Yates! Definitely an artist.December 22, 2020

I cannot say enough of how awesome Dr. Yates and his staff are! I was looking to have a breast augmentation for many years now. I always felt scared to go under general anesthesia, and it was the main reason why I never pursued the surgery. I moved to Utah from back east Summer 2019, and decided to research surgeons. Upon reading reviews for Dr. Yates, I immediately set up my consultation. He was everything I hoped a surgeon would be: knowledgeable, caring, professional, humorous, and honest. The fact that the office used local anesthesia and deep sedation and not general anesthesia was even more of a selling point. Dr. Yates answered all of my questions and quelled all of my fears, so much so that I didn't even shop around other plastic surgeons. I knew I had found what I wanted after one visit. Leading up to my surgery, Dr. Yates and his awesome Patient Coordinator, Lindsay, answered any questions I had via the Symblast app rather quickly...like within the hour. After COVID resulted in the delay of my surgery in March 2020, I was able to reschedule on the first day Dr. Yates was back open in May 2020 (Dr. Yates made very sure to get in me ASAP, due to my crazy summer race schedule). On the day of my surgery, I was still a bit nervous over the anesthesia part, however talking to the nurse, Nancy, the fabulous anesthesiologist, Glenn, and to Dr. Yates one more time before surgery, I felt ready to go and totally comfortable. Dr. Yates uses a rapid recovery method as well, which ensures both safety and comfort before, during, and after the procedure. Before I knew it, the surgery was over (best sleep ever!!) and I was in recovery for about 30 minutes or so. Post surgery, I never had to take any of my narcotics...I only took 800mg of Advil every 8 hours. I was only had slight soreness the 2nd and 3rd day, but the pain was very minor. Dr. Yates made sure to check up on me the next day and again, was so quick to answer any questions I had via the App, even on the weekends! Definitely check out his Instagram page, as there are so many helpful (and witty!) videos and posts to make you feel connected to Dr. Yates and his team, and even more assured that Dr. Yates is the best plastic surgeon in Utah. I never had any nausea, vomiting, tiredness, etc. The entire experience was so great from consultation to surgery, to three month check in, that I am going back for abdominal liposuction in a few weeks!! I am so so pleased with my results and from the incredible service from Dr.Yates and his team. His bedside manner, 100% honesty, empathy, patient care, experience, professionalism, and personality are all genuine and real, and you will absolutely not be disappointed!! Be prepared to come back for more!!!November 14, 2020

So far I am 1 day post op from breast augmentation and I already love my results! Dr. Yates and his staff are amazing and made me feel so comfortable. His technique is amazing! I have only had to take ibuprofen and my antibiotic after my surgery. Haven’t had to touch the pain medication they prescribe. He helped me decide on 470cc silicone implants. He gave the best professional advice on what he recommended due to my petite size and very flat chested. On what type, size etc to make sure there was no rippling or other complications and that I get the best results! And of course your surgeon does know best!!! I have nothing but good things to say about dr. Yates and his staff. You guys rock! Thank you so much!!November 4, 2020

I was 12 the first time I asked my mom for a breast augmentation. Silly, I know, but; all of my friends were developing and I just wasn’t. As a result I was heavily picked on, I was tall, skinny, and flat as a pancake. When I finally started to develop my hips developed a lot better than my breasts. I was absolutely convinced I looked like a pear and hated it! However, I did modeling and beauty pageants as a teen and that greatly helped my self-esteem, yet still; I wasn’t 100% comfortable with my appearance. Oddly enough, I felt the best about my appearance when I was nursing my daughter, despite the “mommy pooch.” I was informed after I had my daughter that I had developed diastatis recti (the separation of abdominal muscles) and despite my best efforts I would always have the mommy pooch. My daughter was 10 when I woke up and decided that I was tired of hating what I saw when I looked in the mirror. I was tired of wearing baggy clothes or control top yoga pants all the time. After speaking with several cosmetic surgeons I decides to see Dr. York Yates. He, and his staff, are absolutely amazing. Before and after surgery care and contact is better than any other doctor I have ever been to. I do not have enough good things to say about this man. I am a Nail Technician, by trade, and I tell all of my clients who are considering any cosmetic surgery that they should go to my doctor. I cannot tell you the amount of times I have given out Dr. Yates’ phone number or pulled up his website for my clients to look at. I don’t think I will ever be able to accurately articulate the extremely profound gratitude I have for this man. For the first time, since I was too young to understand body image, I am truly happy with what I see in the mirror.

Though my meetings with Dr. Yates did feel a little rushed, I still felt that he was very personable and professional. I didn’t have much time to get to know him and yet I still trusted that he would do a phenomenal job. I am very pleased with my results at this point, only being 2 days post-op and the recovery has been going very well so far. He must not have been overly intrusive because the pain has been very manageable even taking lower dosages of meds. I cannot wait to see the results when the implants settle.. then I think they will be absolutely perfect! I was worried about sizing but he was able to ease my fears and consider my opinion while also including his so that we came to a conclusion together on the lost natural look for my body type. Overall, working with Dr. Yates and his staff was a pleasant and very exciting experience!

Dr. Yates is the very best! Not only is he a great dr but he is also an artist. I never felt rushed in his office and he always answered my questions in a way I could understand. I had a drainless procedure and it was so amazing! Not having to deal with drains made my decision that much easier. My inscision is so thin and has already exceeded my expectations of what I thought it would look like. His staff are always kind and friendly. The day of my surgery I was so nervous. The anesthesiologist that he has working for him is so kind and nice and really calmed me down. Dr Yates is a great dr and the staff were equally as amazing! I would do it again in a second.

I just had a BA done by York yesterday, and oh my!! I am so impressed. From the consultation, surgery and 2nd day results, it has all been perfect. His nurses and front gals are all absolutely sweet and super helpful. Dr. Yates has the best bedside manner! He didn’t rush me and was so very patient and thorough answering my multitudes of questions. He didn’t push me into anything I didn’t want. He just really made me feel like a person and was very calming. Also, as an added bonus, he’s pretty easy on the eyes!! 🙂 They took me into the operating room and the anesthesiologist (who was also amazing and kind) turned on some music. Loved that!! The whole operating staff were so cheery and nice!! It was just awesome. Let’s get to the results! When I got to my hotel room, I took my bra off to see my new additions and was stunned. They are already beautiful. I can only imagine how perfect they’ll be in 6 months!! Dr. Yates did amazing work. Absolutely amazing. Thank you to Dr. Yates and his staff!! I’ll definitely be back for more!!
