Dr. Yates is a professional in every way. He listened to my concerns and my extended tummy tuck turned out amazing! I would recommend him to anyone considering a procedure. He will speak realistically and not try to upsell you.January 19, 2026

Can’t recommend Dr Yates enough! I had a breast augmentation done about 6 weeks ago and the whole experience has been amazing. From consult to surgery I felt heard and very well prepared. The staff is amazing too! Everyone was friendly and professional. Dr Yates must be a magician, I essentially had zero post op pain! My results are exactly as I imagined. If I could give more than 5 stars I wouldJanuary 14, 2026

Staff- very friendly all around. During pre op they are very professional. The people you check in with are also friendly. The anesthesiologist is great and the woman who helped with recovery was very kind. The only people who actually could be quite rude are whoever the people are who transfer you to York Yates staff when you initially call the tanner clinic, which I don’t think work for him. Not sure who they are, but they were not good. York Yates - he’s great. He treats you well and knows what he’s doing. Clinic - great atmosphere. Comfy waiting area, lots of parking and they have a separate area where spouses can wait while your surgery is being done. This was a big pro to my husband. Results - look great so far (2 months out). No complications. He Was able to successfully fix tubular breast and difference in size. Post op- they send you home with scar cream, 2 bras, and a band. Looking back, I Would love if I’d had 2 bands, but I do really like that they supply 2 bras.December 17, 2025

I highly recommend Dr. Yates and his practice. He is professional and talented and I feel like he really listened to what I wanted and gave me exactly what I asked for. He was very honest and up front about expected results and I left the consultation with every question answered. He took his time to talk to me about everything and I never felt rushed during the consultation. I had one other consultation at another doctor’s office and it felt like the doctor just wanted to get me out of there as fast as possible. Definitely not the case with Dr. Yates! The office is beautiful and the staff was so welcoming and knowledgeable as well. His nurse Lindsay is amazing! I received a breast augmentation and tummy tuck and I am blown away by the results. I am 3 months post-surgery and everything is looking and feeling fantastic! I got the Motiva brand implants and I love them. They are soft and mimic a natural shape and profile. After 4 kids I had little confidence in the physical appearance of my body and these procedures have changed my confidence level tremendously. I had my first child 18 years ago so to have this new body after almost 20 years is a game changer. I wore a two piece for the first time and it was so fun to feel good in a bathing suit again. Dr. Yates made sure I got exactly what I envisioned and I felt so supported throughout the whole process. I felt I could reach out anytime with questions and I was answered almost immediately by either Dr. Yates or his nurses. Their communication app is great and keeps everything organized in one easy to use app. I highly recommend this office. You will not be disappointed!December 5, 2025

I had the most wonderful experience with Dr. Yates and his staff. I had a breast augmentation with lift performed. This was my first experience with a surgical procedure and anesthesia. To say I was apprehensive is an understatement. I was very nervous about the consult, anesthesia, and recovery. All of my fears and doubts were immediately put at ease from my very first appointment. First of all, the office is Beautiful - it’s like walking into a gorgeous spa. I knew from that attention to detail alone - I was in amazing hands. Every experience I had with Dr. Yates and his staff was amazing. Dr. Yates has a wonderful bedside manner, he listened to all my questions and what my expectations were with patience and focus. The 3D mapping during my consult was very cool and really helped me visualize my results and solidify my decision. My procedure went amazingly well and my recovery from anesthesia and pain was phenomenal. I loved that I didn’t require the pain medication even though it was provided. I am about a month out from my surgery and I am extremely happy with my results. I will recommend Dr. Yates to all my friends and family.November 18, 2025

Dr. Yates and his staff are amazing! He is very professional and answered all of my questions and very quick to respond! I love the results from my breast augmentation!
Dr. Yates and his staff are nothing short of amazing. When you walk into his office it feels more esthetic vs medical it’s beautiful. I had a medical breast reduction surgery done 18 years ago. With time and a pregnancy I was in need of some reconstruction. I consulted other plastic surgeons prior and Dr. Yates was the only one who listened to my specific needs. His nursing staff was kind, listened to me and helped me feel great about my decisions. The 3D imaging they used during my consults was so helpful in determining what size and projection would be best for me. I loved being able to have an idea of what they would look like on my body before surgery. He performed a scar revision from my previous surgery with a lift and a mini Motiva breast implant. The greatest thing was I experienced NO PAIN!! I couldn’t believe it. The technique and skill he uses allowed me to recover better than expected. I had to remind myself not to lift over 10lbs during recovery. If you’re looking for the best plastic surgeon in Utah Dr. York Yates is your guy. His staff is wonderful and his surgical team was great. Thank you Dr. Yates you helped me feel better and more confident with myself. I LOVE my results.
Great doctor and his team is so helpful and caring as well. Thank you all!!
I felt VERY taken care of. I felt like all expectations were clear! So far, my outcome has been PERFECT…thx!
Dr. York Yates and his team was wonderful and the whole experience was amazing! He really knows what he is doing and gave me the perfect boobs I have been wanting for so long! I couldn’t be more happy with the way they look and the things we chose that fit my body best! Also Lindsey was so helpful and always responded to my text through the app so quickly! To anyone getting a breast augmentation I would highly suggest Dr. York Yates to give you exactly what you want with his expertise!
The thing that really sets Dr Yates apart from other surgeons (in my opinion) is his technique. I am 1 month post op from a drainless tummy tuck with lipo, an anchor lift with implants, and fat grafting to my hip dips. I researched these procedures for years, probably looked at a thousand before/afters, and familiarized myself with the healing process and possible complications. With all my research, I was fully expecting to be super swollen (particularly with the tummy tuck) and to have very obvious, raised incisions that would take a long time to smooth out and heal. I also expected to be in severe pain during the first few weeks. I am happy to say that I experienced none of those things, and I fully attribute that to Dr. Yates’ drainless tummy tuck technique and beautiful work. The first time I took off my compression garment and bra, I literally started bawling because I could not believe how incredible I already looked. My stomach was completely flat, my waist was snatched, and my incisions were covered in neatly glued down steri-strips. When I took the steri strips off at 3wpo, I was astonished to see how smooth and thin my scars were. I anticipate that they are going to heal beautifully. Dr Yates also provided me with several medications for the week after surgery that helped me so much. I didn’t even take the narcotic for more than a day or two because I didn’t need it. I had gabapentin for nerve pain, celebrex for inflammation, and Valium for muscle spasms. I also had an antibiotic to prevent infection. His sweet care coordinator Lindsay also provided me with a nausea patch the day of surgery when I told her how worried I was about throwing up. My breast lift scars are healing so well and have already lightened quite a bit. I got 340cc motiva Demi round implants UTM. They are settling beautifully and I already love them. I had significant asymmetry before and Dr. Yates was able to correct it during the lift. All in all, I’m very happy that I had Dr. Yates do my surgery. It’s been completely life changing for me. It’s been 10 years since I’ve been able to look in the mirror and love what I see. Sometimes I still can’t even believe that this is my body; it feels so surreal. Looking forward to a new, more confident chapter in my life.
