UofU Patient May 15, 2013
My wife and I have seen Dr. Crandall at least twice a year for over 10 years. We could not have a better provider! We have extreme confidence in Dr. Crandall and his staff. The Best!
UofU Patient May 13, 2013IT IS USUALLY VERY GOOD BUT NOT THIS LAST TIME
UofU Patient May 08, 2013Will return to and recommend Dr. Alan Crandall as long as he is in practice. Excellent care for our entire family and referred friends for 20 years.
UofU Patient April 29, 2013excellent
UofU Patient April 17, 2013Dr. Crandall and his staff were very thoughtful and caring.
UofU Patient April 17, 2013Dr. Crandall is your ultimate professional. He knows what he's doing, and he has a nice friendly manner.
UofU Patient April 15, 2013good
UofU Patient April 12, 2013good
UofU Patient April 08, 2013Dr. Crandall is kind and caring. He always goes the extra mile!
UofU Patient April 06, 2013Dr. Crandall "bedside manner" and superior knowledge and skill gave me great confidence and ease in dealing with my fears.
UofU Patient March 25, 2013Alan Crandall is an outstanding surgeon. I'm lucky to have him on the case.
UofU Patient March 22, 2013It involved consultation where I felt that I was an integral part of a professional discussion.
UofU Patient March 21, 2013Dr. Crandall is the best in everything
UofU Patient March 18, 20136 month's ago when I was at the clinic I was completely on the outside, about my diagnosis, the resident said one thing, that gave me the impression that I would be blind in short time and the DR told me that things looked good and I should come back in 6 months and they would follow my progress. this time the Dr had a foreign resident practioneer with him and I learned more from their conversation about my care and control, & probable treatment, than I have known in the past 3 years.
UofU Patient March 15, 2013Dr. Crandall is superb in all ways!
UofU Patient March 15, 2013All very good
UofU Patient March 15, 2013Dr. Crandall is amazing!
UofU Patient March 12, 2013Both visits were wonderful. Everything explained and everyone very friendly and caring.
UofU Patient March 11, 2013All of the actual care providers are excellent. Dr, Crandall has superior skills in the area of interpersonal relations. The young Dr. trainees are a little stiff and because they are there to learn they ask questions and do procedures that are repeated again by the doctor in charge of the case. They seem stiff and ill at ease. or perhaps just very focused and earnest. I enjoy having a small part in the learning process of young doctors.
UofU Patient March 11, 2013Alan is wonderful. Easy to talk to. Only hesitation I recommending him is that he's always hugely busy.
UofU Patient March 06, 2013Dr Crandall did not address black spots I advised that I was seeing 2 days before my visit to the clinic. This was an emergency visit. It was not a regularly scheduled appointment. I was very pleased to have been worked in to Dr. Crandell's scedule at the last minute.
UofU Patient February 18, 2013I have had excellent care from Dana, Dr. Crandall and everyone else at the Moran. I've recommended your professional care to others.
UofU Patient February 18, 2013I am very impressed with Dr. Crandall. His ability to make you feel comfortable was very good. I feel very confident having him as my care provider. I would recommend him to any person needing eye care.
UofU Patient February 15, 2013dr,Crandel is the best in the field we are fortunate we have him for our dr.
UofU Patient February 08, 2013Dr Crandall put my wife's mind at ease re her concern over possible macular degeneration which runs in her family. Her eyes were ok which made her much relieved.
UofU Patient January 10, 2013Good experience.
UofU Patient January 10, 2013Dr. Crandall always takes time to explain information/procedures in language I can understand. He is always personable and courtious. He goes the extra mile!

UofU Patient November 13, 2012Dr. Crandall seemed in a hurry, but I understand. He had a lot of surgeries to do. It's fine. An intern did my IV and missed my vein twice. It hurt. This too, I understand. It's all good.
UofU Patient November 12, 2012very good experience
UofU Patient November 12, 2012I appreciate Dr. Crandall explaining my care and answering my questions. I didn't feel he was rushing to get to another patient - that my case was important.

UofU Patient September 05, 2012Dr. Crandall is the best Opthalmologist who has ever treated my eyes ! He is knowledgeable, & kindly and able to make me feel confident that whatever is wrong can be taken care of...
UofU Patient September 03, 2012I have seen this Dr for a number of years end he is very experienced. Sometimes I think I understand more than I do, but I'm an RN and work in the medical field and it seems that most Dr's are guilty of this to a certain degree.
UofU Patient August 15, 2012Talking with Dr Crandall was like talking to an old friend. He put us at ease immediately.
UofU Patient August 13, 2012Dr. Crandall and Julie are the best. They both make me feel like I am the only one at the time. This is so different from many other doctors offices. Other offices could take a lead from Dr. Crandall's office and staff on how to treat their patients.
UofU Patient August 12, 2012Dr. Crandall's is an extremely talented and dedicated professional.
UofU Patient August 06, 2012Dr. Crandall is the Best !
UofU Patient July 29, 2012I will never go back to my other eye doctor. I was thrilled with the courtesy and concern Dr. Crandell gave me. The assistants were wonderful also. They gave me confidence that I had chosen an excellent facility and eye doctor. I have already shared m
UofU Patient July 25, 2012Dr. Crandall showed much concern, but was also willing to take the time with me to explain the next steps. He worked me into his schedule because I was from out of town.
UofU Patient July 23, 2012Dr. Crandall was extremely helpful, answering all my questions and providing me with an excellent evaluation. I would highly recommend him and all the people who work with him.
UofU Patient July 23, 2012They don't get any better than Dr. Crandall

UofU Patient July 23, 2012Very good experience
UofU Patient July 22, 2012I have a history with the clinic and have received outstanding care over many years.
UofU Patient July 16, 2012You guys are tops!

UofU Patient July 09, 2012I work 2 to 3 days a week at LDS Hospital as a house keeper and I really liked how clean your rooms were and how the health care providers took time to make sure everything was clean and sanitized before using equipment that was used by other patients. M

UofU Patient June 18, 2012Dr Crandall and staff are very professional and caring.
UofU Patient June 18, 2012Again, I was treated with great sensitivity to the whole person---not like a diagnosis or eye ball. Recent experiences in other offices had left me disillusioned: humanity had been removed completely from medical practice. A person was nothing more than the sure promise of an insurance reimbursement. A person was categorized and relegated to a stereotype. So opposite was my experience at Moran that I continue to be in a state of awe and disbelief.
UofU Patient June 12, 2012I have sent my parents and a good friend
UofU Patient June 06, 2012when anyone asks me i always tell them do not let any one look at your eyes but the moran eye center
UofU Patient June 04, 2012I was pleased how the care provider spoke directly to me. My husband and daughter were with me but it was me they spoke too. My family was ask if they had any questions and were included in the interview. I feel it was well done.
UofU Patient May 18, 2012Extremely good provider.
UofU Patient May 18, 2012Excellent, as usual!
UofU Patient May 07, 2012always good
UofU Patient May 02, 2012I liked Dr. Crandall very much. He was also very accommodating with my profound hearing loss and took the time to answer my questions. I could tell that he relaxed more with me once he had seen me a few times which is natural. I think even my husband liked Dr. Crandall. I could not have asked nor selected a better doctor to be recommended for my particular eye care (catarat). He was recommended by Dr. Hartnett.
UofU Patient May 02, 2012I was treated with respect and friendliness. I never feel rushed.
UofU Patient May 02, 2012Dr. Crandall is the best!! Always share useful and important information with me
UofU Patient May 02, 2012Dr Crandall is great!!!

UofU Patient April 05, 2012Dr. Crandall ROCKS! He is so knowledgable, caring and concerned and a really nice man. He turned around a terrible experience I had with Dr. Ambati.
UofU Patient April 02, 2012I am extremely confident in Dr. Crandall and his staff and trust him completely with my surgery.
UofU Patient March 29, 2012Dr. Crandall provides excellent care and are always friendly and informative.
UofU Patient March 29, 2012Because Dr Crandall was running late, I felt a little shortchanged that I did not get to talk to him more. I am not sure what questions I might've asked, having done research on the internet previously, but to the surgeon, I would advise a little more time and not be quite so hasty to leave the room and let the technician as good as she was, just because one is running late. I am trusting my eye to a doctor and reassurance would've been appreciated. Don't cheat the patient out of your time because you are late is what I would say. I could tell the doctor was ready to leave the room after his initial check on my eyes and let the tech finish up. It took me some months to finally take this step (Jan until March).
UofU Patient March 28, 2012Dr. Crandall and his staff were the best, I was treated with courtesy and care, all of my concerns were addressed. I will return the next time that treatment is required and recomend your facility to all.
UofU Patient March 05, 2012Dr. Crandall came highly recommended and I will do the same.
UofU Patient February 22, 2012The symptoms I had were frightening and the doctor was very good at explaining what was going on and alleviating my fears.
UofU Patient February 22, 2012I love Dr. Crandall
UofU Patient February 22, 2012Time with doctor was very brief compared to total time at office, 10 minutes in 2.5 hour visit.
UofU Patient February 13, 2012There is not a better Opthalmologist in the State of Utah !!!

UofU Patient January 12, 2012WOULD RECOMMEND CLINIC TO FAMILY AND FRIENDS
UofU Patient January 09, 2012I am very pleased with the care and attention that Dr. Crandall and his associates have given me.
UofU Patient January 06, 2012I couldn't recommend a care provider after just one short visit, but he was good.
UofU Patient January 05, 2012Again, a complete feeling of geniune concern for my welfare. No problem in recommending Moran to anyone in need of care or treatment of eye problems.
UofU Patient January 05, 2012This clinic deserves its reputation as the premier eye center of this area. I drive many other patients to this center, and they all rave about how great the staff is. I concur!
UofU Patient January 05, 2012Nothing less then excellence in my experience at the Moran Center.
UofU Patient January 05, 2012very good in explaining and cordial in response to questions
UofU Patient January 04, 2012It is always a good experience to come in for a visit. I feel that the care providers and the staff members treat me with a friendly and professional way. They all seem interested and like they enjoy what they are doing. They also see extremely competent.
UofU Patient January 04, 2012Dr. Crandall is a gem of a man. He even explained how they fit statistical models to determine the proper lens replacement. And, he recommended a neat Indian spice shop, and gave us directions to find it.
