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’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.
