Yates, York MD is rated 5.0 out of 5.0 based on 675 ratings.
I've had two procedures so far from Dr. Yates. He is an amazing surgeon. I look better now than I did in my 30s. The results far surpassed my expectations. I'm super happy and would recommend him to anyone. Dr. Yates and his staff are super friendly and knowledgeable. You will not be disappointed 😁.February 28, 2018

Dr. Yates was amazing in every way and I couldn’t be happier with my BA. He was the 3rd surgeon I saw and I knew immediately he was the right one. Aside from the countless recommendations from other people and friends on how amazing Dr. Yates was, I was pleasantly surprised with how comfortable I felt and knew I could trust him with this. All the other surgeons left me feeling slightly uneasy. At the end of my consultation I was elated to finally feel confident and worry free trusting him with my surgery. I tend to be OCD and a perfectionist, and after nursing 3 children, my breasts were so deflated that I was certain that even the best surgeon wouldn’t be able to make them look perfect. So I had lower expectations of what they could look like after my surgery. I brought in photos to other surgeons of what I wanted mine to look like and was told it was not possible for me. Dr Yates listened to my concerns and told me what was realistic for my body. I was very specific that I didn’t want to go too big, I just wanted to be proportional. He didn’t try to sell me on a lift, didn’t try to sell me on the most expensive implant, he just told me what would be best for ME and I appreciate his kind bedside manner and care. My BA ended up being better and more perfect than I could of imagined. They are quite literally perfect in every way. Symmetry, size, shape. They look exactly like the photos I brought in, and what others told me was not possible for me, Dr. Yates was able to make happen and he did it flawlessly. It doesn’t look like I’ve nursed a child a day in my life! Haha! I could not be happier and I can’t stop singing his praises. Thank you Dr. Yates! You did the most incredible job!February 25, 2018

Dr. Yates and his staff are by far the best staff I have ever experienced. I am a 40 year old female, and after having two 10 lbs kids I never thought I would get my body back. Not only did Dr Yates perform a miracle he did it in such a way that I will only come back to him for all of my plastic surgery needs.June 7, 2017

Hands down THE BEST doctor for cosmetic surgery. (I have had experience with 2 other surgeons in Utah, one with getting my implants, and another for a tummy tuck. Both of my previous surgeons were not great experiences overall) Procedures I had Dr. Yates do: implant removal, fat grafting in the breast area, and overall give me a good smaller athletic shape without my implants. He also fixed my tummy tuck problems that occurred from a different surgeons mistakes. Both outcomes came out much better than I even expected. Not only did I appreciate the end result of Dr. Yates artistic abilities and attention to detail--immediately I felt comfortable and cared for with the front office staff and his nurses. I was also able to speak honestly and openly with Dr. Yates about ideas, fears, and what my personal needs and priorities were. All of which were respectfully listened to, further discussed, and expertly executed. For the surgery procedure itself I was crazy afraid. I have always struggled with surgery, often having major problems that would keep me in a hospital setting for weeks after even minor procedures. NOT THIS TIME! I'm not sure exactly how they do it there..... but I was home and doing well the day of surgery- no complications. I attribute it to them listening to and professionally addressing ever single fear and personal need I had. All of this WITH exceptional outcomes. I just really felt the highest of respect and personal care during the whole process. THANK YOU SO MUCH DR. YATES!!! I feel blessed that I was able to be a patient of yours. I would highly highly recommend him to EVERYONE, Dr York Yates does amazing work all around.February 9, 2018

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.
York Yates and all his staff are beyond outstanding with bedside manner, answering questions, and they are so polite! I would highly recommend their office to anyone! Lindsay has been great with helping me know what to expect and answers any questions I may have!
The best!

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.

Extremely professional, listened to my wants and provided best look for me. You could tell he really knew what he was doing and cared about the result. LOVE post surgery body, it couldn’t have been a better experience.

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!!!
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!!
