Yates, York MD is rated 5.0 out of 5.0 based on 675 ratings.
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.August 27, 2017

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!August 24, 2017

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.August 23, 2017

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!!August 23, 2017

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!

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.

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.

Absolutely loving my results so far! I’m 3 weeks post op and have had the best experience with not only Dr. Yates but his staff his also.

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!
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.
