Yates, York MD is rated 5.0 out of 5.0 based on 675 ratings.
After having and breastfeeding two wonderful boys, my body underwent an extreme change. My breast decided to leave as soon as my boys were done nursing. After 6 years of talking about wanting to get implants, my husband and I were finally in a position in life to do such a thing. Unfortunately, discussing plastic surgeons at the grocery store is hard to do and navigating your way towards a surgeon is even harder. I found out that one of my neighbors had seen Dr. Yates for breast augmentation. She looked AMAZING! Like myself, she is a very petite individual and she couldn’t have looked more natural if she was born with her new breasts. After hearing about her experience I started researching Dr. Yates. His website won me over immediately. Everything you could ever want to know about the surgery is there, along with pricing. I made the consultation appointment and fell in love with his staff. They were so down to earth and real about the fact I was fixing to have implants installed. Dr. Yates was fantastic to talk to. He took my body structure and everyday life into account when selecting an implant size and was very honest with me about the pros and cons of each type. He was informative without being persuasive which made my decisions so much easier to make. The surgery was incredible. I was given all the necessary prescriptions and post-op information long before the surgery so I was more than prepared for the big day. I had no fear going in. I was given so much support and firsthand experience from Dr. Yates and his staff that there was nothing to fear. I knew exactly what to expect with my recovery and was happily surprised by how quickly I felt able to go back to everyday life. For me implants were more than just a cosmetic improvement for my body, they were a way to feel like a woman again. To have shirts fit the right way and to be able to wear a swimming suit not designed for a pre-teen. I have been overly thrilled with my new body since the day I had the surgery. I am one year post-op and still love them! Thank you Dr. Yates!July 22, 2012

Dr. Yates is hands down the best of the best! My experience with him and his staff beyond exceeded my expectations!! I was extremely nervous to find the perfect plastic surgeon who i could relate to and feel comfortable with. It was most important to not only find a highly qualified, excellent and reputable surgeon, but to find a doctor whom i could trust and whom i felt comfortable speaking to about my procedure. Dr. Yates made me feel comfortable and confident from the second i met with him. He is truly an expert and a perfectionist. I could NOT be more satisfied with the outcome of my breast augmentation, the process and recovery were as smooth as they could be. The recovery was easy to manage following instructions and advice from Dr. Yates. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Yates to anyone; family, friends and loved ones. A great plastic surgeon, a perfectionist, and a truly great doctor who really cares about his patients. I would go back to Dr. Yates in a heart beat and plan on doing so in the future!! THANK YOU DR. YATES!!June 26, 2012

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!!
