D. Alden Yates, DPM founded Yates Foot & Ankle in St. George in 1991, arriving from his training at Dr. William M. Scholl College of Podiatric Medicine in Chicago to a city that was then roughly a quarter of its current size. He built the practice from a single-doctor start and has practiced continuously in the same market for more than thirty years.
The practice now runs as a two-DPM family practice in the professional sense of the word. Dr. Eli Yates, DPM — completing a three-year residency in foot and ankle reconstruction at Lourdes Hospital in Binghamton, New York, followed by a Western University College of Medicine degree — joined the practice and extended its clinical capacity into the next generation. The Yates name appears in multiple patient testimonials referencing "the younger Doctor Yates," which reflects the kind of patient retention that a multi-decade practice builds with its long-term patient base.
The practice is at 736 S 900 E, Suite 101, in the St. George Medical Park on the east side of the city. Services cover the full podiatric scope: routine and preventive foot care, sports-related foot and ankle injuries, nail and skin conditions, orthotic fitting, and surgical consultation. The practice accepts new patients and operates on a standard outpatient schedule.
