UofU Patient March 29, 2014
Doctor Katz is my parents' optomologist, he came highly recommended and I would pass that on to others. He's very friendly and professional.
UofU Patient March 26, 2014Had nothing but good results on my visit
UofU Patient March 16, 2014like I have stated before my over all experience was great
UofU Patient March 06, 2014Complete Staff is TOPS
UofU Patient March 05, 2014Dr. Katz put me at ease. I feel that I am in professional, caring hands.
UofU Patient March 02, 2014Dr. Katz has always been very professional, helpful and informative.
UofU Patient March 01, 2014Doctor assured me that the problem was not a detached retina, and explained how it would play out, but didn't actually say what caused it. I assume that a small blood vessel burst.
UofU Patient February 23, 2014Dr. Katz wrote me a prescription for corrective (prism) glasses on my previous visit, he informed me that if they were not a proper correction to let him know, after receiving the glasses I determined they were not working and my vision was not improved. I phoned the clinic to make an appointment to have the prescription adjusted, was told I would need to speak to Dr. Katz directly, waited one week for a follow up phone call and was told I needed to come back in to be re-examined. The next available appointment was approximately one week later. Dr. Katz entered the exam room, I stated that I felt the glasses need a different prescription, he stated there was nothing more that could be done to the prescription. I was not evaluated, the glasses were not checked. I could have been told this over the phone instead of making another trip to the Moran, finding a driver (who had to schedule time off of work). The appointment was a total waste of EVERYONE'S time. Dr. Katz could/should have relayed this information to me over the telephone.
UofU Patient February 21, 2014The only problem was with the wait time.
UofU Patient February 18, 2014Excellent
UofU Patient February 18, 2014The doctor gave me a dry eye product sample, I love new product samples and trust that my doctor wouldn't give me anything that would be harmful, I appreciated that, I've used the product and it seems to be working well for me.
UofU Patient January 31, 2014Dr. Katz provided a very good experience answering all of my questions in a very knowledgeable and compassionate manner.
UofU Patient January 31, 2014All questions were answered. Detailed explanations were given about any concerns I had
UofU Patient January 27, 2014Dr. Katz and his staff have always worked really well with me.
UofU Patient January 21, 2014A very pleasant experience.
UofU Patient January 20, 2014Care by Katz and his staff is without Peer.
UofU Patient January 20, 2014This was a good experience. I appreciated further testing and diagnosis of my problem.
UofU Patient January 18, 2014All health care providers were helpful, answered my questions/concerns. Gave detail information
UofU Patient December 16, 2013Dr. Katz is amazing!!! He is very friendly and thorough. He will spend whatever time is needed to get to the bottom of whatever is going on. He actually took extra time to get me measured for new interocular lenses so he could do surgery even though I was there for another reason. He always talks to my husband and thanks him for bringing me/coming with me. He is also loved by his staff and the surgery techs which says something HUGE about a provider. When I complimented him, he seemed surprised and was very humble in taking the compliment. He even called me the day after I went to Triage (on a SATURDAY) to follow up and make sure I was okay. I have already recommended him to multiple people.
UofU Patient December 08, 2013Dr. Katz was my attending physician and he is very polite, caring and informative. He explains procedures and happenings in a way that it is easy to understand. He is extremely knowledgable in his field and I have the utmost confidence in his expertise and would and have highly recommended him to others. I believe Dr. Katz has spent adequate time with me and I left the office knowing that I was well cared for and Dr. Katz will inform me of my pathology results when they are available to him. He is the physician of my choice.
UofU Patient November 26, 2013very good experience
UofU Patient November 25, 2013This was a post exam from cataract surgery 2 weeks ago, which both the PA and Dr. Katz did not realize that I had. Was given a very brief (15 seconds) eye check from the cataract surgery and out the door. I did not get this treatment from my prior appointments with this office, I guess it was a busy day for them.
UofU Patient November 05, 2013First class care.
UofU Patient November 04, 2013Outstanding
UofU Patient November 04, 2013Good experience

UofU Patient October 31, 2013I had my eye surgery Dr Katz was extremely knowledgable. I have already recommended the doctor to a couple of my friends.

UofU Patient October 15, 2013my confidence in his ability is as good as it gets
UofU Patient October 14, 2013The doc acted like I was a number, not a person, Seems like he had a quota to make and was behind. Seemed like he was going to make up time at my expense. Not impressed!
UofU Patient October 10, 2013I came to the test thinking I may have permanent damage to my eye and left with the knowledge that it just a product of age. this lifted a weight that is hard to describe
UofU Patient October 08, 2013I had a very good experience overall.
UofU Patient October 07, 2013All in all a very good experience I have never been treated so well by any other optomitrist or optical clinic ever and I have had to wear eyewear for my entire life 67 years!!!!
UofU Patient October 03, 2013Dr. Katz is an excellent doctor who has lots of patients. I come in the morning so I don't have to wait as long as one would have to in the afternoon.
UofU Patient October 03, 2013I am very thankful that I was able to see Dr. Katz. He was thorough, kind and caring. I am waiting for my new glasses. Hopefully, they will be as good as the ones that they gave me to try. It has been a good experience. I am now able to drive and be more independent. Thank you to eveyone who helped.
UofU Patient October 01, 2013Most of my care and time spent was with fellows/medical students, who was much more inquisitve and took more time with me then the actual doctor, whom spent maybe 20 minutes with me during my 5 hour appointment. The above score is not rating them, but Dr. Katz himself.
UofU Patient September 23, 2013Doctor Katz is GREAT! The best care of my eyes I could ever get. He has saved my eyesite. I am so grateful to have him as my doctor. He is also concerned about my overall health. Because of him I have changed all of my health providers to U of U medical providers.
UofU Patient September 19, 2013was allowed no contribuyion in how soon the resolvedure/s

UofU Patient August 27, 2013Everyone is very competent. They are trying to help my situation
UofU Patient August 20, 2013Over all great experience
UofU Patient August 05, 2013the wait time was so long and the time that I actually got with the doctor left a bad taste in my mouth so I would probably not recommend this doctor to others.
UofU Patient July 29, 2013I have already recommended Dr. Katz to several people, including my wife.
UofU Patient July 29, 2013Dr. Katz was pleasant and took time with us.
UofU Patient July 23, 2013Dr. Katz is great, I have confidence in him, I feel like he cares and that he wants to give me the best care possible.
UofU Patient July 22, 2013Dr. Katz certainly gives the impression that he knows his business.. I would recommend him to anybody.
UofU Patient July 18, 2013Since I have been to several doctors and get the same response that they have no idea what is wrong, I wasn't expecting anything different. However Dr. Katz said he would look into the situation further, which made me feel better.
UofU Patient June 25, 2013Dr Katz is awesome... appears to be soooo smart and thoughtful, both. Really glad he's my doctor. My vision is vastly improved from a year ago. Thanks Dr Katz.
UofU Patient June 24, 2013I would recommend the Moran Eye Center to anybody who needed your type of services.

UofU Patient June 04, 2013100 % satisfied with everything. Thank you all so much And my Dr was awesome ( Dr Katz)
UofU Patient June 03, 2013I asked Dr Katz to explain to me what he was seeing one the scans of my optic nerve and he just said they look good. Maybe a slight problem on the right, but I was really interested. I wanted him to explain to me what I was seeing. Also, he never told me what my intraocular pressure was. I really want to know these things.
UofU Patient May 18, 2013Awesome Dr Katz... I recommend him whenever the opportunity arrises
UofU Patient May 17, 2013I have already recommended Brad Katz to several people.

UofU Patient February 11, 2013Dr. Katz opened with a dialogue that allowed me to ask questions comfortably and not feel I was out of my league. He explained my problem in terms that elevated my own education; and prescribed solutions balancing both natural and scientific action.
UofU Patient February 04, 2013Overall experience was good. Took a little too long for the first contact is all. Not bad however.
UofU Patient January 22, 2013Bulk of examination was done by assistant but was much more comprehensive than usual
UofU Patient January 21, 2013We're so grateful to have Dr Katz and Dana Dillon taking care of our eyes
UofU Patient January 19, 2013Good
UofU Patient January 18, 2013I was very pleased with the care my doctor, Dr. B. Katz, gave me. He discussed the situation with me and offered follow up information after a thorough examination. Both my husband and I have been patients of Dr. Katz and I have the utmost confidence in his judgment as well as his knowledge. I would highly recommend him and his staff to others as the opportunity arises.
UofU Patient January 17, 2013Sometimes I wasn't sure what questions to ask and was surprised there wasn't more testing done.
UofU Patient January 14, 2013Dr. Katz was friendly, efficient and very professional. He quickly reviewed my chart (I had not seen him previously) and completed examination of my eyes following my vision testing by another staff member, Julie.

UofU Patient December 03, 2012I was worked in for an acute problem and was very quickly and well cared for.
UofU Patient November 29, 2012Dr. Katz and staff are truly outstanding. We travel over 600 miles to visit Dr. Katz and arevery grateful for his outstanding service.
UofU Patient November 27, 2012This is as always a very good experience for me.
UofU Patient November 22, 2012The specific issue involved retinal cancer ind it appeared the primary care provider did not want to discuss the long term outcomes in detail. Perhaps that is good with some patients; with me I wanted to know more about exactly what the possibilities were for the diagnosis, implications for long term survivability, etc. The primary care taker seemed a bit mute in bringing up such issues.
UofU Patient November 15, 2012Overall good experience. However, we had expected a quicker session being scheduled at 8 AM
UofU Patient November 04, 2012Fast, efficient service in a very personal, friendly manner,

UofU Patient October 18, 2012Very Good
UofU Patient October 08, 2012I am extremely pleased and feel very confident with Dr.Katz and his staff. I knew what the procedure would be and all was explained to me before I entered the operating area. Kindness prevailed and concern for my well being. You can't ask for more than that!! I would and have highly recommended Dr. Katz and the Moran Eye Institute to others.
UofU Patient October 08, 2012The care provider is brillant.
UofU Patient October 01, 2012Dr. Katz is the best opthamologist I have ever seen. I was extremely impressed with him!
UofU Patient September 15, 2012very caring
UofU Patient August 28, 2012I feel that Dr. Katz is a very competent medical professional, but I didn't feel a lot of personal concern for my particular situation. He was very rushed and seemed impatient while I was giving my medical history.
UofU Patient August 21, 2012Dr. Katz has been my physician for several years as well as my husband and we have the utmost confidence in him. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a doctor at the Moran Institute.
UofU Patient August 21, 2012he was very careful and concerned about me and took all the time needed

UofU Patient July 28, 2012I was disappointed that my condition could not be explained, but I understand the difficulty my problem presents.
UofU Patient July 24, 2012Dr. Katz was very friendly and made my wife feel very comfortable. He was patient enough to listen and then address my wife's concerns.
UofU Patient July 23, 2012This was a follow up of an ongoing condition. Time with doctor was short but adequate.
UofU Patient July 18, 2012Dr. Katz is very professional and personal. He did a great job with my eyes and answered all of my questions.
UofU Patient July 09, 2012Dr Katz is great, he jokes with me and answers all of my questions. His manner helps me relax and feel comfortable going to appointments.
UofU Patient July 02, 2012Very satisfied
UofU Patient June 25, 2012The only bad experience was having to wait so long ifor the exam with Dr. Katz.
UofU Patient June 22, 2012I actually did recommend Dr. Katz to my mother who has already seen him and I assume she appreciates him as much as I do.
UofU Patient June 14, 2012An excepetional group of professional health care providers. Kudos to one and all!
UofU Patient June 13, 2012I told him what I would like to get out of the procedures. He made some changes, we discussed pros and cons and locked in on an approach. The outcome was exactly what we had talked about.
UofU Patient June 12, 2012Dr Katz has been and continues to be an excellent provider of care.
UofU Patient June 04, 2012All of the providers, assistants, etc. in the Opthalmology are excellent!
UofU Patient June 03, 2012Dr Katz was a perfect professional.
UofU Patient April 19, 2012Dr. Katz was great, patient and gave me info I liked
UofU Patient April 17, 2012Dr. Katz is really one of the best.
UofU Patient April 12, 2012I have ultimate confidence in Dr. Bradley Katz. I was there for cataract surgery. He had been monitoring my condition for a number of years and I was kept extremely well informed. During that time I suffered a torn retina and the triage system used to get me diagnosed and treated was outstanding.
UofU Patient April 05, 2012Dr Katz is awesome. I 'm so fortunate he is my doctor.
UofU Patient April 05, 2012Wanted to kow why I was taking other meds insteading of just accepting the fact that I took them. I don't like people questioning my use of pain meds. Makes me feel like a druggie when they do, even though the use is legit
UofU Patient March 19, 2012It's always frustrating to go to a Dr. appt and see Interns, Fellows and 4 minutes with the actual Dr. you had an appointment to see. Although I admit the team did an amazing job, I was not overly happy with the interaction and care the Dr. gave. I felt like although I know I have problems he really wasn't interested in helping me understand them he just wanted me out the door and handed me another pill I am supposed to take. Dr.'s are busy I get that but so am I. Busy doesn't equate to a hit and run appt.
UofU Patient March 19, 2012I have been coming for about a year and every 3 or 4 months I have a follow up appointment to see how things are progressing. Each time since the first visit I have spent no less than 2 hours and as much as 3 hours and 25 minutes to be seen. I have found the wait to be excessive especially when it's a follow up appointment. I understand problems happen but I have wondered if patients are seen by appointment time and wondered why a follow up has to wait soooooo long to be seen when my actual time with the doctor is less than 30 minutes. I have worked in a doctors office so I do have a reasonable expectation of the time it should take to be seen.
UofU Patient March 14, 2012dr. katz is a great dr. and i would send friends to see him
UofU Patient March 07, 2012from walking in the door to walking out of the door, I felt involved, important, and all together like a human being and not a number. a verry good experience.
UofU Patient February 27, 2012Everything was good with Dr. Katz. It just took 2 hours for a 15 minute proceedure!
UofU Patient February 13, 2012Very good experience
UofU Patient February 08, 2012Very good experience!
UofU Patient February 07, 2012Doctors teach you a lot about your disease
UofU Patient February 02, 2012Dr Katz MD, is the best and would not change him anything!
UofU Patient February 01, 2012This was a great experience time wise probably the best. It isn't my nature to put VERY GOOD on my surveys.
UofU Patient January 25, 2012I really liked Dr. Katz. I did not need explanations, etc. and there were no treatment decisions to be made It was a fairly quick visit. I intend to see him again next year, or sooner if a problem arises.
UofU Patient January 23, 2012Excellent
UofU Patient January 18, 2012Dr. Katz knew what the problem was and referred to to a specialist who could help me. Wasn't expecting such a serious problem. Answered questions honestly.
UofU Patient January 09, 2012Been seeing Dr. Katz for several years would highly recommend him, and the Moran center, to anyone needing specialized services.
UofU Patient January 04, 2012Really good MD. Very helpful. Would recommend to others.
