I had the most incredible, professional, and rewarding experience with Dr. Yates and her team at the Yates Institute of Plastic Surgery. She is warm and comforting. My breast reduction was a complete success. The scarring was very minimal, and the healing process was effortless. I am very pleased with my results and would recommend her. Truly a talented surgeon!

After being butchered by my Breast Oncologist - Dr Yates was my plastic surgeon for the breast reconstruction. I have since had 5 surgeries with her, and 2 more to come. 2 infections, holes in my expanders, skin not healing - you name it!!! The only positive thing throughout this entire nightmare of 2018, was Dr Essie Yates. She has always been there for me day or night, visit after visit, even filing extensions with my insurance she no longer accepts to retain me as a patient in her care. To me, a kind doctor, who cares about her patients, AND is skilled at her trade, is someone I would travel the world to have work on me. She’s #highlyrecommended, beautiful inside and out, and a great person. Thank you Dr Yates from your favorite patient ;)

They have truly treated me like a family member during my reconstructive breast surgery after breast cancer. It has not been an easy process but Dr Yates and staff have been amazing. She has tremendous skill with the scalpel, very explanatory yet listens deeply, beyond kind but firm with important info. Thank you for saving my life!

I recommend Dr. Yates without any reservation. She is a highly skilled surgeon as well as expert in neurotoxins and fillers. She has excellent bedside manner and truly cares about her patients. She has a keen eye for identifying areas for individual aesthetic improvement. I couldn't be happier with my results. She has a patient for life in me. Love her!

I met Dr.Yates when I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Since I had a double mastectomy planned, the search for a reconstructive surgeon became a bit of a daunting process. . . and then I met Dr. Yates and knew she was the right surgeon for me. Her expertise, her gentleness, and her beautiful inner spirit was a blessing. I am a cosmetic dentist and am much more comfortable treating patients than suddenly being one, especially one diagnosed with breast cancer. My oncology surgeon was wonderful and the reconstruction process went beautifully with Dr.Yates. I will always be thankful to her. If you have the misfortune of being diagnosed with life-changing breast cancer, look no further for the surgeon to do your reconstruction . . . she is truly a gift to the profession! Dr. D
