Yates, York MD is rated 5.0 out of 5.0 based on 675 ratings.
I went to Dr. Yates for a breast lift and augmentation as well as a tummy tuck. He was very professional and answered all of my questions as well as my husband’s questions. His staff was very friendly and helped calm my fears on the day of surgery. I couldn’t have dreamt of better results! He was a true artist! The results were minimal and Dr. Yates was able to help me chose the breast size and shape that worked well with my body type. However, he treated me and my husband with the utmost respect and did not push anything on me.March 17, 2015

Dr. Yates is a true artist. Selected the gummy bear natural tear drop for my augmentation and they are perfect. Symmetry, drop and size look beautiful. I'm so happy and would highly recommend using Dr. Yates for any of your cosmetic surgery needs.March 16, 2015

At age 50 I was having problems with certain parts of my body where I could just not lose the fat. Being a marfan as well does not help. As I am a heart patient, having any invasive surgery can be risky. Not to mention quite a bit more monitored. I opted to go for "coolsculpting". having read about the procedure and the expected results on line. There would be no cutting or anesthesia needed. And as I was not seeing results in those specific areas with normal diet and exercise. I decided to try it. The areas needed to be worked on were my lower chest (around the nipples), and my belly. Which had been greatly extended because of 7 previous hernia surgeries. Lindsey was extremely helpful in making me as comfortable as possible , and informed me of what to expect during the procedure. And I was easily ready for this. The amount of pain was quite tolerable for me in all 3 instances (Though I must admit I have a very high tolerance for pain from many years of athletic conditioning.). First being my belly. a few months later being my chest. and then finally a few months later for a second attempt at my belly.( As I had mentioned. This are was greatly over extended.) I am very confident with the results as I am able to wear my pants "normally" (because of the previous bulge of the belly , I had to wear my pants "too high up" to keep them from slipping off. My chest also looks significantly better as I no longer look like I have breast tissue in the region of my lower chest. people have commented that I "look better" though the changes were so slow and subtle that they just assumed it was through diet and exercise. And only a tiny handful of friends know the truth about it. I am very pleased with the results, and though I might consider a third round of treatment on my belly. At this point I am going to wait and see till ALL results are in. -February 13, 2015

Dr. York Yates is a true artist and highly skilled plastic surgeon. I am ecstatic about the results on my "mini tummy tuck" abdominalplasty... My stomach looks better now than when I was 20 years old!!! I search for over a year to find the right plastic surgeon that could create near flawless results. I am a practitioner myself and I spoke with many of my friends in order to narrow it down to a couple surgeons. Once I narrowed it down I saw actual previous patients of Dr. York Yates and it was easy to make the decision in selecting him. He truly cared and made sure I was completely satisfied with the end results. I couldn't be more happy and I have recommended him to all that have ask.January 20, 2015

I am a 24 year old girl who needed a breast reduction DESPERATELY. The service provided to me was outstanding. The staff was kind and addressed all of my questions and concerns. Dr. Yates was so personable, professional, and reassuring. He worked with incredible efficiency, accuracy, and confidence. I knew that he would give me his absolute best work before the end of our first meeting. The results were shockingly successful and so satisfactory, that I wept. If ever needed in the future, I will always go to Dr. Yates from here on out. I'm SO HAPPY.January 17, 2015

They were very professional and yet super personas. I felt like my experience was customized to meet my expectations. Thank you
Dr. Yates and his team were incredibly professional, skilled and made me feel comfortable for my abdomen repair. I loved how easy communication was through their app. Their location was beautiful, and Dr. Yates did wonderful work.
I had a great experience with Dr. Yates. He was professional, knowledgeable, and made me feel confident throughout the entire process. His staff was friendly and supportive, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. I’m very happy with my results and overall experience. Highly recommend!
I had a breast augmentation done at Yates and I am so happy with the results. The staff and Dr. Yates were very kind and knowledgeable.
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.
