Dr. Jeff Petty and his staff have been absolutely outstanding. The treatment I have received at Moran has been fantastic. I cannot fault them in regards to anything. They have given me eyesight that I never thought I would have. I have worn corrective lenses or contact lenses for 60 years prior to my cataract surgeries. I am not seeing 20/15 in both eyes. What a fantastic change.

I came for eye strain and to evaluate whether I need new glasses. Turns out my glasses weren't dispensed properly, so maybe I just needed new glasses. Unfortunately all that evaluation was done by the doctor's assistant who was not doing a good job in my view. Dr Pettey evaluated my eye health which is important but was not interested in my lens prescription. Frankly I felt he rushed me our of the exam room when I told him I tested the assistant's new lens and they weren't clear to me. He never did the eye test for lenses. You should be clear in booking appointments that a doctor will not do tests for lens prescriptions. Going forward I won't go to Moran for that; a local optician does a much better job. Moran will be for eye health for me.

More than 10 minutes and the doctor still did not show up but I noticed that he already completed my visit because I received a notification from MyChart that the after visit is available to read. Than he showed up. This is very unprofessional how the doctor conducted this visit.

This experience was good. Dr. Pettey explained the process to us and our daughter and waited for questions. She is disabled and sometimes needs things to be a little easier to understand; he took the time to give her explanations she felt good about. I can't express my satisfaction with Dr. Pettey and his staff. The nicest thing I can think, is, my daughter said he was nice and so gentle. What a blessing to have medical people like him out there.

I wish they would talk to me about what they are looking at, I would come & go with no idea what took place, whether I had improved or declined, etc. He asked me what my biggest concerns were.

I was very happy with the quickness of my appointment. Everyone from check in and check out was incredibly kind, professional, and I would highly recommend my friends and family come to Moran for any eye issues.

his mannerisms made feel comfortable, and not nervous! plus that you are important and not someone who to be rushed out.

UofU Patient June 15, 2018

Dr. Pettey is excellent, concerned, listens well, and articulates issues and results perfectly. I've seen Dr Petty in the past at the Moran Center at the U of U but this is the first time at Redstone. Redstone is very convenient for me, so my eye care is now outstanding.

UofU Patient June 01, 2018

Dr. Pettey is great at listening, he doesn't rush you in and out like so many medical professionals, but rather, he really wants to hear what your concerns are. I have the utmost confidence in him.

UofU Patient May 30, 2018

Very good experience.

UofU Patient May 28, 2018

See first comments. Great experience.

UofU Patient May 22, 2018

Dr Pettey is excellent and I would recommend him to anyone who is interested in using the Moran for an eye exam.

UofU Patient May 15, 2018

I like my doctor, he is truly interested in my wellbeing.

UofU Patient May 14, 2018

Dr. Jeff Petty is THE BEST!! I always feel like I'm in good hands, and he always does a thorough exam, explains everything, and always answers my questions. He Rocks!!

UofU Patient April 29, 2018

We have recommended Dr Petty to other patients.

UofU Patient April 28, 2018

Dr. Pettey was friendly and respectful and I am sure he knows his stuff. However on the visit's notes he wrote things that never discussed with me but implied that he hah done so. I was surprised to find out that I have more issues on top of the one I was seeing for and I have to find out about them through the visit's notes and not directly from him. On the other hand he did a good job answering my questions about my original problem

UofU Patient April 14, 2018

Dr. Pettey is an example of the best of all qualities in Physicians.

UofU Patient April 13, 2018

Dr. Pettey is the BEST. Seriously...the BEST! I can't sing his praises enough. I'm thankful to have such an outstanding ophthalmologist so close to home.

UofU Patient April 12, 2018

good visit

UofU Patient April 05, 2018

very knowledgeable & very friendly

UofU Patient March 12, 2018

Wait was way too long.

UofU Patient March 11, 2018

every part of this procedure was excellent

UofU Patient March 10, 2018

Both Dr. Pettey and Dr. Hansen were friendly, easy to talk to, willing to answer questions and provide any explanations I needed.

UofU Patient February 23, 2018

The first meetings with Dr. Pettey and Dr. Hansen lasted about 5 minutes each time. The last meeting with Dr. Hansen lasted longer and didn't seem so rushed.

UofU Patient February 20, 2018

Dr. Petty appears to have good staff and he is highly compassionate and thoughtful.

UofU Patient February 15, 2018

Dr. Petty went above and beyond just being a good ophthalmologist. He was thorough, kind, compassionate and looked beyond the immediate and obvious issues to help me feel like we had an answer. Thorough doesn't even begin to describe my visit with Dr. Pettey. He put me at ease after coming in for an emergent scheduled visit and he worked to treat my whole person. Not just my eyes.

UofU Patient February 10, 2018

I was fortunate to get an appointment for the next day after I'd called Moran. I was fortunate to have Dr. Pettey immediately confirm the tentative diagnosis my optometrist had given me. I was MOST fortunate that he was able to quickly, painlessly, and effectively restore my vision to far better than normal. I'm now telling everyone about my great experience at Moran!

UofU Patient February 09, 2018

Dr. Pettey was really good

UofU Patient February 07, 2018

I am very confident in Dr. Petey and his staff. I trust i am always getting the very best eye care available.

UofU Patient February 06, 2018

Things went differently than I expected so I'm still evaluating.

UofU Patient February 03, 2018

When I finally was able to meet with the doctor, he explained the procedure, my options, and what results I could expect.

UofU Patient January 23, 2018

Dr. Pettey seemed genuine and sincere.

UofU Patient January 21, 2018

Dr. Pettey was fine. The lower ratings in questions 2 and 3 reflect Taylor and also Patricia, who looked quite concerned while doing measurements but gave me no explanation other than "everything is fine" after about 1 minutes of knitting her brow and going over the test results.

UofU Patient January 16, 2018

Best Dr. ever

UofU Patient January 04, 2018

Very good!

UofU Patient January 02, 2018

Love him!

UofU Patient January 02, 2018

Exceptional!

UofU Patient December 23, 2017

very good

UofU Patient December 19, 2017

He was great!

UofU Patient December 17, 2017

Really good.

UofU Patient December 15, 2017

One of the best doctors I've ever seen. Caring and competent. Easy to trust.

UofU Patient November 21, 2017

I love Dr Petty. I have a chronic health condition that requires me to see a number of different doctors throughout the year. Dr Petty is the best, even across all disciplines. He truly cares about the overall well-being of his patients. I wish all my experiences in the healthcare system were as good as my experiences with Dr Petty. He'll be my ophthalmologist as long as he's with Moran. I can't recommend him highly enough.

UofU Patient November 07, 2017

Dr. Pettey is very patient and friendly .

UofU Patient October 23, 2017

Dr. Pettey was exceptionally friendly, personable, and concerned. He listened attentively, and provided thorough explanations. I got everything I needed and more.

UofU Patient October 23, 2017

Excellent experience provided by everyone.

UofU Patient October 16, 2017

Dr Pettey is excellent! My results from my difficult cataract surgery has far exceeded my expectations. Thank you Dr Pettey for giving me my sight back and allowing me to function normally again!

UofU Patient October 13, 2017

I would have liked the doctor to offer (because I didn't think to ask) what the eye examination revealed about my vision correction needs. Am I near/far sighted? Is my astigmatism the greater problem? What does it mean for the future that I have mild cataracts?

UofU Patient October 11, 2017

Dr Pettey is terrific. Friendly, knowledgeable, and kind.

UofU Patient October 08, 2017

dr. pettey is amazing.

UofU Patient September 25, 2017

Dr. Pettey was professional, excellent and knowlegeable! He explained my eye conditions very well, though I saw him for the first time - in words that I can understand.

UofU Patient September 19, 2017

I have rarely been this impressed by a Dr. or a his assistant. I will certainly see him again even though he is not included with my yearly visit plan.

UofU Patient September 07, 2017

It's always a pleasant experience with Dr. Petty and his staff.

UofU Patient September 05, 2017

I am impressed with the personal service given by Dr. Pettey and how he kept me informed at all levels concerning my eyes. I was told the options that I had and when I was ready to proceed with surgery the information I had been given was invaluable in feeling at ease with the decision.

UofU Patient September 05, 2017

Dr Pettey was great. I have nothing but good things to say about him, and the care I received. I can't wait to go back.

UofU Patient September 04, 2017

Dr. Petty is very friendly, upbeat and thorough. I would definitely recommend him!

UofU Patient September 04, 2017

Dr. Pettey and the other care providers working with him show a wonderful level of expertise, friendliness and concern. I trust them whole-heartedly with my vision!

UofU Patient August 29, 2017

Good experience with Dr. Petty and will all of his staff. As usual. Good people.

UofU Patient August 22, 2017

Dr. Petty is the best. He is able to put you at ease all the while explaining what he will be doing.

UofU Patient August 20, 2017

Dr Pettey was excellent - professional, personable, a good listener and explainer.

UofU Patient August 06, 2017

Dr. Pettey is amazing. He is extremely knowledgeable, very friendly and definitely makes you feel taken care of. I am in healthcare myself and wish that every provider was like this.

UofU Patient July 22, 2017

We are so impressed with, and grateful for the care and concern shown for us and our daughter!

UofU Patient July 15, 2017

my wife recently passed away. Dr Pettey very kind. My insurance does not cover my being seen by Dr Pettey and he facilitated someone who can, although I like Dr Pettey and was given a deduction for cash payment.

UofU Patient July 15, 2017

had 3 different assistants doing tests, went to several rooms and didn't always get an explantation in between seeing different assistants for tests

UofU Patient July 11, 2017

Dr. Pettey is great. I'd recommend him to anyone in need. He helps my wife extensively and graciously with her CF patients and clearly has a good heart. Cheers to Dr. Pettey for sharing his talents with such hospitality

UofU Patient July 01, 2017

I didn't know whom to ask for when I called for an appointment regarding dry-eye problems, but I'm very pleased to have landed in Dr. Pettey's care. He was thorough in his exam and discussion of my concerns. He explained his suggested treatment protocol and opted for an initial treatment that was low cost, non-invasive, and readily available to me while leaving me to understand that there are further treatment options if the current methods don't sufficiently take care of the issue. I'm a very happy patient at this point.

UofU Patient June 21, 2017

Dr. Pettey is a very likable person who seems relaxed, calm and caring in his approach to me... it can be disturbing to have a problem that another eye Dr said I would never have, but Dr Petty is reassuring and I have confidence in him. So glad he caught my glaucoma early!

UofU Patient June 09, 2017

My experience at Moran has never been anything but exquisite. Everyone has been very professional, patient with questions, and more than willing to accommodate me in every way.

UofU Patient June 06, 2017

moran is the place to go

UofU Patient June 03, 2017

I am very confidant in Dr Pettey's ability and appreciate his professionalism, courtesy, and concern for my condition.

UofU Patient May 31, 2017

Understanding that my cornea is thinning sure helped me understand why my vision/Rx tends to fluctuate. This explained a lot of the issues I was having with Dr. Mark McKay, and too embarrassed to go back to him. :)

UofU Patient May 20, 2017

The above answers pertain to Dr. Petty not the assistant. She would ask me the same question several times and it just seemed like she was not concentrating on my care. Dr. Petty is always so caring, informative, listens to what I have to say. He is the greatest.

UofU Patient May 20, 2017

Took all the time she needed to make sure measurements were accurate, never expressing exasperation where it sure seemed to me she could have. Obviously enjoys what she does to the max.

UofU Patient May 12, 2017

I was kept informed of everything, from the minute I got there through the end of the exam, on what they were doing and why, and the results of the tests that were performed. I had a thorough exam and was very impressed by everyone who saw me.

UofU Patient May 09, 2017

see above. The wait I experienced was not his fault. It was the poor management of the office staff.

UofU Patient May 08, 2017

Dr Petty, the resident and the assistant were excellent!

UofU Patient May 05, 2017

My care provider always took time to listen and answer everything completely.

UofU Patient May 03, 2017

Really appreciate Dr talking to my son about keeping his yearly appointments instead of directing it towards me! This way my son will grow up learning to help himself and not lean on me. It's always great when it comes from someone other than your parent!

UofU Patient May 01, 2017

I like Dr. Pettey. I just didn't see him this time.

UofU Patient April 30, 2017

Very happy with the care I received. Dr Pettey and staff were very concerned with my problems.

UofU Patient April 29, 2017

Excetionally satisfying experience

UofU Patient April 25, 2017

too early to tell if I would recommend as I haven't had procedure yet

UofU Patient April 10, 2017

I am pleased with the outcome of cataract surgeries in both eyes. I'll have to get used to not being able to read anything up close and needing glasses for that but my distant vision is great.

UofU Patient March 02, 2017

They r always so good to me when am there everyone treats me so good answer all my questions

UofU Patient February 27, 2017

Dr Pettey listened to my concerns and acted on them. He did an exceptional job of explaining the surgery process and outlying decisions I would need to make.

UofU Patient February 19, 2017

Jeff Pettey will be my opthamologist from here on out. Was really impressed with his knowledge about cataracts and how in-depth the exam was. Took the time to answer my questions. GREAT experience.

UofU Patient February 03, 2017

I have already recommended Dr. Petty to a friend.

UofU Patient January 28, 2017

Excellent care. Got lots of information on condition, treatment, follow up.

UofU Patient January 24, 2017

Dr. Pettey is amazing. He was kind, concerned and knew that this was quite upsetting to me. He took the time to explain everything about what happened and to listen to my concerns and to keep me positive as well.

UofU Patient January 23, 2017

very pleased and satisfied

UofU Patient January 22, 2017

I would recommend Dr Petty and he s staff.

UofU Patient January 08, 2017

if I spent 10 minutes with provider, that is at the high end. It all felt rushed

UofU Patient January 07, 2017

Thanks for making this a pleasant experience for me. I'm doing well with my recovery, and most of all, I can see again. The quality of my life have improved in ways you can't imagine. I can drive at night, read without a magnifying glass and can thread a needle. I'm so grateful.

UofU Patient January 02, 2017

Dr. Petty is great. Feel comfortable and confident with him

UofU Patient December 31, 2016

I think we had different goals for the visit. I was hoping to hear that the eye had healed enough he could tell me what he could do now to have my vision returned to where it was prior to another Dr's surgery that messed it up and do away with the endless daily burning, etc. while staying glasses free. In less than 5 minutes being told that I have to do this routine for life and handed a prescription for eye glasses removed all hope I had held for a year. The phrase remains true "Ask a stupid question, you'll get a stupid answer." I do appreciate that he picked up on some of the issue in my eye that other Dr's never and that he is flexible with me on working with that. I appreciate the good atmosphere in the office. I like that he is pleasant and cheerful and professional. He knows what he is doing. I am grateful for his skills.

UofU Patient December 31, 2016

My records were not requested from my previous provider and would have explained a lot of questions the doctor had about my condition. Because they did not have my records he continued to put me through an exam that included shinning the light into my dilated eyes for what seemed like a long time. I was not given any paperwork to request my paperwork from either of my previous providers.

UofU Patient December 29, 2016

This is a review of the doctor who did the main exam, not a review of Dr. Pettey. I had described to the doctor my migraines and associated light-sensitivity and that I was seeking a prescription for dark sunglasses to drive in bright sunshine. She felt this was a bad idea and went out of her way to explain so. And then proceeded to conduct a long thorough examination with a bright light in my eyes -- not recommended for light-sensitive migraine sufferers. Needless to say, I was struck with a migraine the next day that cost me an afternoon and evening. Dr. Pettey's "check-up" exam was much better. Brief and to-the-point.

UofU Patient December 28, 2016

The doctor was nice but he took cultures of my eye infection and never got back with me. I ended up having cellulitis in my eye. I ended up having to go to the emergency room because he wouldn't get back to me and even after I went to the emergency room, I called again to see the results of the culture to make sure I was on the right antibiotics and still they never got back to me.

UofU Patient December 21, 2016

The brochures, explanations and instructions were clear and easy to understand.

UofU Patient December 21, 2016

I really feel DR Petty is a very knowledgeable physician and is very thorough.

UofU Patient December 04, 2016

Good as it gets!

UofU Patient November 26, 2016

Provided excellent care while in attendance of me, but a lot of wait time.

UofU Patient November 16, 2016

Dr Pettey is wonderful. He took extra time and care to be sure I picked the lenses that were right for me. And they are! There were a couple of residents there that day also. They were very cheerful and friendly. They answered several questions for me that I had not thought to ask Dr Pettey. They added a great spirit to the visit.

UofU Patient November 12, 2016

Dr Pettey spent a great deal of time with me regarding my eye sight, considering that I have both cataracts and dry macular degeneration, which means I have real issues with my future as a sighted person. He helped me with a plan for surgery in January 2017 and educated me on other options, so my visit was most productive!

UofU Patient November 11, 2016

Dr Jeff Pettey was outstanding. Very personable, gave good explanations, answered all my questions in detail. Highly recommended.

UofU Patient October 29, 2016

I didn't know why I was referred, but Dr. Petty was kind. I am still not sure what the overall reason for the referral, that was not stated, but I felt he was willing to address my eye issues more than anyone thus far. I have had lots of talk with no action for improvement prior to coming here, so time will see if first impressions have him the quality of Dr. he appears to be. I appreciated the easiness I had to speak with him.

UofU Patient September 25, 2016

Excellent doctor.

UofU Patient September 15, 2016

All good.

UofU Patient September 12, 2016

the doctor was great, and it was a good experience

UofU Patient August 22, 2016

This was my second visit with Dr. Pettey. I like his professional style a lot and will stay with him.

UofU Patient July 17, 2016

i was examined by a nurse, intern, and Dr. Pettey. I felt very assured by the fact that they obviously talked to each other and all reached the same conclusion. Dr. Pettey ispired confidence as well.

UofU Patient July 16, 2016

I received excellent treatment from the doctor and his assistants.

UofU Patient July 15, 2016

Very Good

UofU Patient July 07, 2016

Dr. Jeff Pettey is an amazing Ophthalmologist. He is a caring practitioner who takes the time to be sure I understand everything that is happening with my eyes now . . . and how things will proceed into the future. I am grateful for his knowledge and his kindness. I would definitely him to anyone and I will definitely continue to see him for my eye care. Thank you.

UofU Patient July 01, 2016

I wish I could give a rating higher than very good.

UofU Patient June 23, 2016

Friendly and informative as well as an effective teacher for the resident.

UofU Patient June 03, 2016

Very happy with Dr Petty and the entire staff at Moran Eye Center.

UofU Patient May 25, 2016

This was my first experience with the Moran Eye Center, and Dr. Pettey excelled with the representation. Likable, capable, and knowledgeable.

UofU Patient May 21, 2016

Dr. Pettey is a really good Doctor and gives me confidence that he can handle my new eye problem - recent diagnosis of Glaucoma.

UofU Patient May 17, 2016

I'm always amazed at the professionalism and excellent patient concerns that UofU doctors and staff have shown. Dr. Pettey is no different, great service with patient and calm explanations of everything in the exam. Super doc!

UofU Patient May 14, 2016

All good.

UofU Patient May 08, 2016

I was grately surprised about this visit. Dr. Pettey LISTENED. I will definitely try to make future appointments only with him. I felt that he was concerned about the problem I presented.

UofU Patient May 04, 2016

I described my experience with Dr. Petty in survey above. I also spent time with the assistant.

UofU Patient May 02, 2016

I can't answer the above, as I saw 4 providers. #4: Doctor Pettey was great, as always, and explained all. #3: His "doctor assistant" was also knowledgeable. #2 person provided a technical exam and was not my favorite person of the day! She was not unkind, but disconnected, not involved, anxious to get "rid" of me, and left me wondering what was going on with my exam and appointment. Maybe she was having a "not so great day". #1 person tried hard and did her best, but left me confused and uncertain - not usually my end result.

UofU Patient April 20, 2016

I feel confidence in both Moran Eye Center and my provider.

UofU Patient April 10, 2016

I like Dr Pettey and love working with the residents. Everyone is stimulated by their jobs and conveys their enthusiasm for getting the tests right so they can give me the best care possible. Dr. Pettey was very kind in giving me some bad news but in reality my glaucoma was caught very early and that makes the prognosis very good.

UofU Patient April 10, 2016

The care I received at Moran has been excellent throughout several visits.

UofU Patient April 04, 2016

have already recommended Dr Pettey to a friend

UofU Patient March 11, 2016

I have been a long-term patient of Dr. Mifflin, and I was a little worried about seeing someone else, but I really like Dr. Pettey too. He was thorough, friendly, and professional. I will definitely keep him as my primary vision specialist, and I have already recommended him to a coworker.

UofU Patient March 05, 2016

Dr Pettey is great!

UofU Patient February 18, 2016

From start to finish, first with the technician, then the resident doctor and then the ophthalmologist I was extremely impressed with the knowledge, the good interaction between the staff and the care they exhibited about our situation. They let my husband and me who were both having exams, come into the same room to talk with the doctors and listen to the discussion. I loved Dr. Pettey's manner and his way of keeping the discussion moving, "Got it!" he would say, so we could all move on. He was amazing as was his resident. So glad I picked him on the basis of the patient's comments and that he is my ophthalmologist!

UofU Patient February 18, 2016

My situation is about as complex as a simple check for new prescriptions gets -- regular bifocal; special prescription for music reading and performance; slightly different bifocal for sunglasses -- no confusion, no problems.

UofU Patient February 15, 2016

I recommend Dr. Pettey to any of my friends contemplating cataract surgery. He has been excellent in providing care and concern during my visits and surgery with him.

UofU Patient February 12, 2016

I would have appreciated more conversation about the differences between current perscription and the new one given me in this visit, particualrly about changing lens in my other set of glasses. Perhaps I was not aggressive enough in engaging in that conversation.

UofU Patient January 29, 2016

I spent a great deal of time with Stein. However, it is my experience with Dr. Petty that I choose to evaluate on this page. I raised a few questions with Dr. Petty and he took a "don't worry" attitude which discouraged me from discussing my concerns. Also failed to give me feedback regarding the status of my cataracts and ptosis.

UofU Patient January 25, 2016

This was my first visit with Dr. Pettey, but I have a high level of confidence in him.

UofU Patient January 17, 2016

Everything was great

UofU Patient January 06, 2016

Dr. Smith is an excellent professional and a great guy.

UofU Patient December 17, 2015

I had the same eye doctor for many years. Because of concerns I had about the care I was receiving I ask friends and family for suggestions about where to go for a second opinion. The first name that came up was Dr. Jeff Pettey. I found hin the be very caring and knowledgeable, I'm very pleased with the care I received.

UofU Patient December 14, 2015

Dr Pettey remembered me from three years ago/

UofU Patient December 11, 2015

Excellent experience, the best ever. I received wonderful care and expert advice!

UofU Patient December 09, 2015

I had others concerns about the other eye and the doctor would not address them each time I asked went back to the I to do the possible surgery on he evaded any questions about the other eye. I left there very upset because I knew nothing about the right, only left,

UofU Patient December 07, 2015

EXCELLENT CARE BY YOUR STAFF. NO COMPLAINTS.....

UofU Patient November 16, 2015

I've been here with my wife for her check ups, I scheduled my app while her last visit and I had a great experience.

UofU Patient November 13, 2015

Dr. Pettey was kind and professional and I felt very confident in his medical abilities.

UofU Patient October 27, 2015

I was asked if I had questions, and given enough time to understand the response or rephrase the question.

UofU Patient October 26, 2015

Dr Pettey is always awesome and I'm always happy to see him.

UofU Patient October 16, 2015

My experience was good: Dr. Pettey gave clear explanations both before and during the procedure. He also told me only one eye would be dilated the next time, eliminating the need for a second driver.

UofU Patient October 04, 2015

The topic of medications did not come up. A follow-up in 6 months was suggested for concerns that came up during the exam; I intend to schedule this. My experience at Moran has been excellent.

UofU Patient September 07, 2015

Very good experience

UofU Patient September 06, 2015

Moran worked me in to see someone for the shingles around my eye. The examination was very thorough to be sure shingles had not penetrate the actual eye.

UofU Patient September 04, 2015

Dr. Pettie is an exceptional individual with excellent communication skills and very patient-oriented

UofU Patient September 04, 2015

I came in because of a possible connection between my migraines and my vision. I have never worn glasses and so didn⿿t know which questions to ask. I was given a prescription that did correct my near-sightedness in one eye, however I was never asked what I do. The prescription prevents me from wearing me glass while working at a computer, a major component of my job. The doctor should have asked and advised me to get ⿿progressive⿝ lens. After paying several hundred dollars I am stuck with a pair of glasses I can only use for 20% of a day and so which will not help reduce the eye-strain that may be related to the migraines.

UofU Patient September 01, 2015

Dr Pettey listens to my symptoms and concerns and gives me step by step attack on the problem. he is awesome!

UofU Patient August 31, 2015

Dr.'s Pettey & Swan were highly professional. I am extremely pleased with the eye exam and attention to detail.

UofU Patient August 11, 2015

I just did recommend, two days ago, Dr. Pettey to a friend for herself and her sister to have cataract surgery.

UofU Patient August 06, 2015

Dr. Pettey was very friendly and took the time to listen to why I was there. It was a five minuet visit with him for a two hour appointment, but I did have a lot of testing done as well.

UofU Patient July 22, 2015

good experience

UofU Patient July 20, 2015

I am very gifted to have Dr. petty as my ophthalmologist; he is thoughtful, caring, great at explaining, and he makes me a part of the decision processes. I trust his knowledge and his skill and I would recommend him to anyone for excellent eye care. Thank you.

UofU Patient July 17, 2015

I finally understood what was going on with my optic nerve and felt reassured about not having glaucoma. It has been an unanswered question for years with my previous opthamoligist.

UofU Patient June 10, 2015

I just came in for a routine annual eye check-up, and was surprised by the immediate discussion of cataract surgery. Although I had been told before that I have cataracts, the word was always "incipient before . This was the first time that the need for surgery was mentioned, and although the doctor said it was my decision, a lot of time and testing went into that issue. Since the testing showed that there was only a need for minor adjustment in my glasses, and I have not felt any problems with vision, I have decided not to do the surgery at this time.

UofU Patient May 29, 2015

Dr Petty is awesome!

UofU Patient May 24, 2015

Although I have been to the Moran many times, my previous provider has moved on. So this was my first visit with Dr. Petty. I found him to be engaged and confident.

UofU Patient May 10, 2015

Great experience all-around.

UofU Patient May 08, 2015

Dr. Pettey is always so great. He is genuinely caring about my concerns.

UofU Patient May 05, 2015

the technician, the Dr./intern and Dr. Petty were ALL terrific and professional and sensitive to my needs

UofU Patient May 04, 2015

very good!

UofU Patient May 04, 2015

Dr. Pettey is my hero :)

UofU Patient May 01, 2015

Dr. Pettey and his assistant were very courteous and thorough.

UofU Patient April 21, 2015

Everything went very smoothly

UofU Patient April 13, 2015

I was quite pleased in every way with the care and service.

UofU Patient April 04, 2015

being a medical provider, I appreciate the candor and quality of the visit and conversation. I knew I was the one responsiblet for thee ultimate decisions yet given the expertise and knowledge necessary

UofU Patient March 28, 2015

Dr. Petty was very informative and allowed me time to ask questions with great bed side manner!

UofU Patient March 27, 2015

I have a lot of respect for Dr.Pettey after our visit.

UofU Patient March 21, 2015

Excellent

UofU Patient March 19, 2015

Dr. Pettey was great, he has an excellent bedside manner and is a great listener.

UofU Patient March 09, 2015

My experience was great, and I will always recommend Moran and Dr. Pettey to others.

UofU Patient March 01, 2015

Dr Pettey was very kind and solicitous

UofU Patient February 24, 2015

one prescription did not indicate how long to take the medication...situation was clarified over the phone

UofU Patient February 23, 2015

I had cataracts removed in both eyes (two weeks apart) and both experiences were very good. Everyone answered all my questions, assured me and everything went smoothly.

UofU Patient February 23, 2015

Outstanding professional service and really made me feel at ease being in a new office and seeing a new doctor.

UofU Patient February 09, 2015

Diane (in pre-op), the anesthesiologist and Dr. Pettey were all considerate, explained everything that was happening and made me feel comfortable about the surgery.

UofU Patient February 02, 2015

care provider called re follow up information and asked that I call him. I have since placed four calls over seven days and have yet to receive a call back from him

UofU Patient January 09, 2015

Fire alarm went off during visit. Time was short, no problem

UofU Patient December 15, 2014

I was extremely impressed with everyone I interacted with...every person was on thier "A" game. I felt like a V.I.P.!

UofU Patient December 13, 2014

Dr Pettey is very good, I appreciate the care and respect he shows for his patients.

UofU Patient December 09, 2014

Dr. Petty is a very friendly and caring person.

UofU Patient December 07, 2014

Dr Pettey was awesome and read my tests before I got in my car to leave the Moran

UofU Patient November 29, 2014

My fault, I guess, for not asking about the problem I came in for, which was cataracts. He was very friendly, and gave me good advice. I thought he seemed a bit hurried, but since I had waited 90 minutes to see him, I'm sure he was running way behind on others, too.

UofU Patient November 24, 2014

This was my first visit with this doctor, so I don't feel I have enough information to give a recommendation to others at this time. This was a vision check-up with no real problems to address, and overall I was quite satisfied with the experience.

UofU Patient November 18, 2014

good

UofU Patient November 15, 2014

Dr Pettey is an excellent doctor. Makes you feel very comfortable and I have confidence in him. Comfortable and confidence key words.

UofU Patient November 02, 2014

Dr. Pettey was very personable and most importantly he was very through with checking my eyes. He kindly explained the importance of me following up in 6 months (dilation & eye pressure). He explained without alarming me the need to get my pressure checked due to the shape of my eyes. He was patient and wasn't rushing to examine my eyes, very thorough.

UofU Patient October 31, 2014

good

UofU Patient October 30, 2014

very good experience

UofU Patient October 17, 2014

I would recommend the Moran Eye Center to anyone with eye problems.

UofU Patient October 16, 2014

Very happy with Dr Petty, as he explained many things of which I had been unaware in previous visits with other doctors.

UofU Patient September 13, 2014

I was seen by dr. Choi then by dr. Petey. The exam was very thorough and they both made sure there was no serious problem. They both explained the medical terms they used so that I can understand what was going on.

UofU Patient September 12, 2014

Always great experience.

UofU Patient September 01, 2014

All very good.

UofU Patient August 30, 2014

excellent experience

UofU Patient August 25, 2014

I always have a lot of questions, sometimes probably too many, but it's because I am very worried about my eyesight. Dr. Pettey has been very patient with me and he has always answered all my questions, and he has explained all the procedures, the risks, all the medical terms.

UofU Patient August 16, 2014

I was very impressed with Dr. Pettey.

UofU Patient August 14, 2014

Dr Pettey is the best ¦ he is efficient, friendly, kind and instructive.!!

UofU Patient August 13, 2014

Dr. Petty offered to do a laser treatment on a cataract lens that had clouded up through scar tissue after I told him how poor my night vision had become. This had been a problem since the lens was placed in my eye 8 years previously. He was the first eye doctor to suggest that he might be able to help me. (I have seen at least 10 other eye doctors about this problem). I was very nervous about the procedure because of past bad experiences, but he was very reassuring and calm and addressed every concern I had. I am so grateful that he could help me. I only wish it could have been sooner. Wouldn't it have been nice to be able to see better for the past 8 years and wouldn't it have been nice to have been able to see better before my huge vitreous detachment last year. I applaud him for his help.

UofU Patient August 12, 2014

he stayed he needed to speak with my doctor Judith Warner who would be back Friday but then they schedule me out 6 weeks. I cannot drive, I cannot see well enough to drive. and I cannot work with this, but he said here are some eye drops and see you in six weeks. in the meantime what do I do for work?

UofU Patient August 09, 2014

Awesome.

UofU Patient August 05, 2014

Dr Pettey is excellent.

UofU Patient July 31, 2014

Awesome care provider!

UofU Patient June 29, 2014

Outstanding in all regards!

UofU Patient June 21, 2014

I would not hesitate to recommend the Moran to anyone.

UofU Patient June 11, 2014

Excellent - I can't say enough good things. Dr. Pettey is wonderful.

UofU Patient May 22, 2014

He was great with my 8 year old son. Dr. Petty made him feel very comfortable, I would like my son to continue to see Dr. Petty

UofU Patient May 21, 2014

very thorough visit and attention

UofU Patient May 19, 2014

Dr. Pettey is absolutely awesome! I have never had a more complete experience with a physician and I can't thank him enough for his attentiveness and care. Because of Dr. Pettey, I have begun treatment for ailments I've had for about a decade.

UofU Patient May 10, 2014

Every one was very nice and considerate. I had a very good experence

UofU Patient April 26, 2014

I just didn't really feel that my ? was answered about the watering from my eyes especially the left one and what I might be able to do about it. other wise I was happy with the appt.

UofU Patient April 07, 2014

I was very pleased with all of the medical care i received.

UofU Patient March 28, 2014

Dr Pettey is the best!!! he is concerned and helpful also his staff follows his lead even the reception desk has great people to assist you with all that you need to do.

UofU Patient March 22, 2014

All was positive.

UofU Patient February 15, 2014

It was great to have the Nurse (who ever did the initial tests) and the Doctor be ready to accommodate me in the things "I" wanted. Also the sheet that they printed out as we left and made or next appointment was perfect. It contained my appointments, my medications and instructions which was so helpful.

UofU Patient February 08, 2014

I have already suggested to those who need eye care to Dr. Pettey and his staff

UofU Patient January 07, 2014

The only poor rating was because Dr. Pettey forgot to give me the prescription we discussed during my exam. It wasn't critical or urgent at the time, but I nevertheless need it.

UofU Patient December 29, 2013

would have liked some written care suggestions for dry eyes

UofU Patient December 02, 2013

Dr. Pettey and his resident were great. I liked them both.

UofU Patient November 25, 2013

Honestly, I think Dr. Pettey has the disposition that all health care providers should have. He REALLY listens. He cares about his patient's overall health and well-being. He asks lots of questions. He doesn't "lord" his expertise over his patients. He's approachable and friendly and he does his best to make his patients feel comfortable. Compared to other providers I've dealt with, I feel Dr. Pettey actually cares.

UofU Patient November 05, 2013

I appreciated him reviewing my records from a different provider.

UofU Patient October 31, 2013

Dr Pettey is awesome and provided me with the ability to relax as i knew i was in very good hands

UofU Patient October 31, 2013

Dr. Bettis was training an inter from the VA & asked if it was ok for her to look 2 my eye & be there during my evaluation.

UofU Patient October 28, 2013

Like I stated, the staff was exceptional!!!!!

UofU Patient October 24, 2013

I could tell that I was receiving the best care possible.

UofU Patient October 21, 2013

Informed step by step as to what was happening. Asked if I had any ??'s or concerns. Very thoughtful. In general I don't like doctors, but he was able to easy my anxiety.

UofU Patient October 15, 2013

About two years ago, I changed from a previous University of Utah physician and, after careful consideration of his background, training, and community care involvement, I chose to see Dr. Pettey. He is knowledgeable, thoughtful, and open. He provides excellent care and has great interpersonal skills. I have full confidence in his abilities and the care he has provided to me. Since most of us, including myself, are careful about the care of our eye and sight, I am pleased to have such a good physician. My thanks!

UofU Patient October 03, 2013

OVERALL GOOD EXPERIENCE WITH EVERYONE

UofU Patient October 01, 2013

I like my care providers (ALL of them) to talk with me when they doing things to my eyes. What are they doing? Why? What are they finding? It's my body. I really don't like having someone look at my eyes or measure them and not talk about it. When they don't talk to me I'm left feeling like an object rather than a person. This is a comment about all of health care, not just the Moran. So, please pass that along.

UofU Patient September 24, 2013

I would have no problem recommending this facility or the doctors. Was treated very well.

UofU Patient September 23, 2013

I had a retina exam previous for a study and that was all that I had. When I went to my old doctor during the two exams at the Moran Center he told me I had Macular Degeneration. But with the two exams at the Moran Center both times they never saw that problem. That was a huge relief. Dr. Pettey took time to look at the previous exam at the Moran Center and was able to give me a better history in which it was a huge relief! Thanks for the good news and the new prescription and the great job that you did!

UofU Patient August 29, 2013

When he finally got there, the physician was professional, almost human. No gripes there, but no salutations either.

UofU Patient August 28, 2013

Dr. Pettey was great. He was very thourogh and personable.

UofU Patient August 13, 2013

Dr. Pettey is exceptional.

UofU Patient August 05, 2013

Dr. Pettey is super and I have strongly recommended him to my friends.

UofU Patient August 04, 2013

Dr. Pettey is patient, caring, and knowledgeable. Although he has many patients, he is never in a hurry. He explains things well and listens to questions.

UofU Patient July 22, 2013

Dr. Petty was very good and I really appreciate his sense of humor - that really works for me.

UofU Patient June 26, 2013

No real conclusions were come to about my problem. They ruled out several serious possibilities, like tumor, or eye pressure. Said my problem may be related to cataracts or dry eye. Since my visit, the recommended eye drops and heat applications haven't seemed to help.

UofU Patient June 24, 2013

It was ok wish there was more they could do for my vision since that is what the problem is

UofU Patient May 28, 2013

Seemed very caring and I had confidence he was being thorough, unlike previous providers. His explanations made sense, and have helped me understand and deal with my conditions.

UofU Patient May 23, 2013

The staff that I encountered in my visit,Bethany, Dr.Swan and Dr. Pettey were at all times reassuring and very sympathetic to my concerns and they all gave me applicable information that I could easily understand and apply once at home

UofU Patient May 13, 2013

competent and friendly doctor

UofU Patient April 19, 2013

I had a very good experience during my entire time at the facility

UofU Patient April 08, 2013

I have already recommended Dr. Pettey to others.

UofU Patient April 03, 2013

Great experience.

UofU Patient March 25, 2013

The ophthalmologist provided care on the extreme (good) end of a care spectrum, opposite of what had been provided by specialist seen previously at St. Mark's hospital. This provider addressed all issues and to depth, and demonstrated diagnostic expertise my wife had not experienced before in Utah. My thanks to Moran and University of Utah for care provided my wife.

UofU Patient March 19, 2013

I felt the doctor showed genuine care which made me feel more confortable that I was in good hands.

UofU Patient March 14, 2013

The physician was very helpful and informative.

UofU Patient March 04, 2013

Dr Pettey was very personable. I had several questions and felt that he had ample time to answer them and not have to rush out to the next patient.

UofU Patient February 22, 2013

I found the doctor and the resident completely open to discussion, and great listeners. They helped me determine the surgical options I had, and also helped me understand the choices I had for permanent replacement lenses.

UofU Patient February 20, 2013

very good

UofU Patient January 31, 2013

The care staff made sure I was very comfortable and were very personable.

UofU Patient January 31, 2013

Dr. Pettey and Dr. Kinard were fantastic. They were both very thorough. Thanks!

UofU Patient January 15, 2013

altogether a very nice visit!

UofU Patient January 03, 2013

Professional - Friendly - Good

UofU Patient December 21, 2012

ALL GOOD

UofU Patient December 20, 2012

Overall, a world-class operation. I saw a technician, a med student, two interns and the physician. Its what I expected at a teaching hospital. A slight increase in overall visit time, but well worth it. I feel confident I'm getting the right diagnosis and treatment at the Moran center.

UofU Patient December 06, 2012

Dr. Pettey was wonderful

UofU Patient December 05, 2012

Dr. Pettey was amazing!

UofU Patient November 19, 2012

I did not get written instructions, with specifics as to what medication was to be started first. I called in, with no response, and I went back in person to get directions. It was a critical piece of information, that was left out. I looked at My Chart, but there was nothing added for the appointment.

UofU Patient November 05, 2012

I saw Dr. Bell on Sunday 10/28/12. He was excellent. He got me in quickly and diagnosed my problem. He then gave me the number to call for the continuity clinic. I saw Dr. Petty 11/01/12. He did excellent work as well.

UofU Patient November 01, 2012

I had to ask questions about future course of my eye condition and its effects to get all the information I needed.

UofU Patient October 08, 2012

The doctor came at the end for 10 mins. or less.

UofU Patient October 08, 2012

He went the extra mile and found an otoscope so he could check my ear.
