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

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.

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!

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.

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!!
