Dr Chaya is always friendly, kind and generous with his time to explain all of his medical findings and suggestions. He is one of the best doctors I have ever worked with Thank you!!

UofU Patient
June 27, 2017
Dr. Chyia is very professional plus a total giant in his field.

UofU Patient
June 26, 2017
Dr. Chaya was professional, kind and compassionate. Looking out for my best interest demonstrating concerns for best outcomes and creating a care plan to further assist my well being.

UofU Patient
June 24, 2017
I feel a little that Dr. Chaya and his assistants were moving just a little too fast. The reason for my visit might have been routine for them but it's a really big deal for me, so I was naturally a bit nervous and would have appreciated just a bit more attention.

UofU Patient
June 20, 2017
The technician was administering eye test.

UofU Patient
June 19, 2017
Excellent, kind and caring provider. takes initiative and time to address needs and educates regarding condition and new plans for a positive outcome. I am in very good hands:). Thank U

UofU Patient
June 04, 2017
good but they didn't know which provider that does the surgery I need is on my plan

UofU Patient
June 03, 2017
It is only that we love seeing Dr. Chaya that we are willing to drive to the Redwood clinic. we live about 5 minutes from Moran but can never get an appointment there.

UofU Patient
May 21, 2017
he is always professional great bedside manner

UofU Patient
May 01, 2017
Dr Chaya is an exceptional physician. I will trust no one else with my eyes.

UofU Patient
April 24, 2017
Dr Chaya wa s very informative and concerned and gave me answers to allquestions I had.

UofU Patient
April 24, 2017
The whole experience with this cataract surgery was very acceptable.

UofU Patient
April 21, 2017
Dr. Chaya is the finest eye care physician I've ever had. His kindness, hospitality, attention to my questions and concerns were wonderful. I did not feel hurried and he made me feel like his most important patient.

UofU Patient
April 19, 2017
Doctor was great, his fellowship student was not. Dr helped me understand, answered all my questions, and was veey helpful.

UofU Patient
April 08, 2017
Excellent care, friendly, professional, competent

UofU Patient
March 19, 2017
i already have recommended dr. chayaneed an N/A choice above

UofU Patient
January 22, 2017
for some reason Dr. Chaya seemed to be in a hurry. He normally does not appear that way and we were not behind schedule.

UofU Patient
January 13, 2017
It turned out that I needed more time than usual for this appointment due to the condition of my eye. Dr. Chaya was still thorough and not rushed.

UofU Patient
January 13, 2017
Up to date knowledge greatly appreciated

UofU Patient
January 04, 2017
Impressed with the treatment and future plan. Early on in my problem I felt there was an inconsistent approach among Moran practitioners in glaucoma treatment. I am very comfortable with Dr. Chaya's plan and concern.

UofU Patient
January 02, 2017
seemed hurried

UofU Patient
January 02, 2017
shocked at how much work the tech did and how little time I was with the doc

UofU Patient
December 20, 2016
i was seen by two Dr's and each showed an equal amount of concern for my condition

UofU Patient
December 18, 2016
dr. Chaya is always very thorough at explaining procedures. He is patient yet efficient.

UofU Patient
December 13, 2016
Dr. was very thorough. However, if the follow-up visit summary had not been provided, it would have been more detailed information that I could not have recalled. He spoke quickly, thoroughly, not pausing too much for feedback.

UofU Patient
November 08, 2016
glad to be treated as I was

UofU Patient
November 07, 2016
Very impressed with Assistant and Doctor

Dr. Chaya is an excellent ophthalmologist.

September 27, 2016
Dr. Chaya is an excellent clinician. He always explains what he is doing and always asks if I have any questions or concerns .

UofU Patient
September 19, 2016
I am very confident in Dr Chaya. He is knowledgeable and friendly!

UofU Patient
September 16, 2016
I am very happy and satisfied with the results on my surgery. I am grateful to Dr Chaya who has been trying everything to save my vision!! Thank you!!

UofU Patient
September 12, 2016
Dr. Chaya was outstanding from first appoint through the post-op discharge back to my optometrist. I would highly recommend him.

UofU Patient
September 12, 2016
very good

UofU Patient
September 04, 2016
Dr. Chaya put me at ease. He is understanding, empathetic and was patient to answer all of my questions. And me - being nervous - ask lots of questions - probably redundant ones!

UofU Patient
September 04, 2016
very professional. seemed somewhat rushed.

UofU Patient
August 22, 2016
Hurried, uninterested in responding to concerns not central to his diagnosis

UofU Patient
August 20, 2016
Dr. Craig Chaya and his staff were wonderful - very competent and caring.

UofU Patient
August 06, 2016
Dr. Chaya and his medical assistant were wonderful. Very patient. Made me feel very comfortable and confident.

UofU Patient
August 04, 2016
I think Dr Chaya is fantastic!

UofU Patient
July 31, 2016
Dr. Chaya is outstanding in every way. he takes the time to provide full and clear explanations, he listens to questions and concerns, and the results of surgery we're outstanding. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing his area of expertise.

UofU Patient
July 15, 2016
I aske a question of the technician that she didn't know. she checked with my doctor and called me with the answer.

UofU Patient
July 12, 2016
Good

UofU Patient
June 29, 2016
Dr. Chaya is an excellent ophthalmologist who takes time explaining everything. Very attentive and answers any and all of my questions. A true asset to the John Moran Eye Center!

UofU Patient
June 26, 2016
I will definitely recommend Moran Eye Clinic and Dr Cheya.

UofU Patient
June 22, 2016
They have done me a great service by improving my sight and life. I would recommend them to any of my family

UofU Patient
June 12, 2016
This appointment was to complete an exam conducted by a technician. The technician who conducted the exam was very professional and communicated everything that I needed to do so it was easy to understand.

UofU Patient
June 11, 2016
No comment: satisfied

UofU Patient
June 05, 2016
It was much easier than I ever thought it would be.

UofU Patient
June 04, 2016
This was an excellent experience. I changed physicians from one I had had for 15 years to this clinic. I wished I had made this move sooner!

UofU Patient
May 25, 2016
As I mentioned earlier, due to software problems, Dr. Chaya was unable to evaluate my retina imaging results during my exam, nor could I get a printout. He said he would contact me if there were any problems. My exam was on Tuesday. On Thursday night I checked MyChart, but did not see any comment about this test. I sent Dr. Chaya a message via MyChart to verify that he had actually been able to review and evaluate the results (and to request my electronic copy). Dr. Chaya replied to the message late Friday evening, along with a phone call (leaving voice mail), and emailed my test results for my hard copy. He was very thorough on this follow up.

UofU Patient
May 20, 2016
Dr. Chaya is an excellent, knowledgeable physician.

UofU Patient
April 17, 2016
I spent more time with those who were taking pictures of my eyes. I didn't have many questions because I wasn't sure what I needed to asked. I have since found ot someone wo wears contact lens need to take the lens out a week before the exam for sizing eye. No where on any literature was that the case. It delayed my surgery. The Dr. had already re-scheduled my second surgery because he was going out of the country. I was okay with that. I am hoping my experience alert the them to have that information imparted to contact wearers. I don't know the Dr. well enough to recommend him to others. He was recommended by my Optometrist. He seems competent and I spent very little time with him. I have confidence in Dr. Smith's recommendation of Dr. Chaya.

UofU Patient
April 15, 2016
This was the first time meeting Dr. Chaya he was outstanding. he was very thorough, asked lots of questions to better understand my needs, and took considerable time to fully explain a complex situation with many decisions. His explanations were extremely clear, which was especially impressive given the complexity. I would highly recommend Dr. Chaya.

UofU Patient
April 09, 2016
I have a conditon that is hard to understand and predict. I believe I am getting the best care possible under those circumstances

UofU Patient
March 31, 2016
I spent the time equally with Dr. Chaya, his technical assistant, and another doctor in training, Dr. Patel I believe. Each was responsive and helpful. I left with a lilt in my gait, no not really, but I was very happy with the entire experience.

UofU Patient
March 29, 2016
Perhaps it was that my appointment ended at 5:00, but I felt rushed out the door with no instructions for follow up. And there may have been some confusion about this appointment as to whether it was an annual eye exam or a follow up from a previous eye problem, but the provider did not say anything about a refraction, he simply said to his assistant to schedule a year out. I have since called to come back in for a refraction as part of my annual eye exam.

UofU Patient
March 22, 2016
Excellent attention and skill of technician was appreciated. Doctor's review and instructions were very professional and thorough!

UofU Patient
March 22, 2016
I am confined to a power wheel chair and those who provided my care were very very helpful without being patronizing! Thank you!

UofU Patient
March 09, 2016
Very impressed with Dr. Chaya

UofU Patient
February 19, 2016
Nick was great!

UofU Patient
February 09, 2016
My mother is 92 and has some understanding what is going on. You could sense some frustration in Dr Chaya as he was running behind and my mother was not cooperating.

UofU Patient
February 08, 2016
very thorough, good exp;anations, well written instructions

UofU Patient
January 11, 2016
Dr. Chaya was great in describing what he saw with my exam results.

UofU Patient
December 20, 2015
doctor came in looked at my eyes and told me to take medications and see him back in two months. Didn't explain or talk to me much about the problems with my eyes

UofU Patient
December 15, 2015
I WILL RETURN

UofU Patient
December 15, 2015
Dr Chaya is excellent

UofU Patient
December 06, 2015
MD is very intelligent and always provides adequate information and answers all my questions.

UofU Patient
November 16, 2015
the fellow was great. very personable. the dr. seemed to be condescending and preferred to direct us to a website regarding the injury.

UofU Patient
November 14, 2015
The doctor is very efficient and polite but does not connect especially well with me.

UofU Patient
November 13, 2015
He is very nice and helpful! Probably the best bedside manner I have seen out of an eye dr

UofU Patient
November 09, 2015
Again, this guy was incredible. I felt very informed about my upcoming procedure when I left.

UofU Patient
November 08, 2015
The lady that did my initial exam was wonderful, patient, explained everything as it was done. Dr. Chaya is the absolute best opthomologist I've had the privilege of working with. His patience, explanations, and empathy give me comfort, and confidence about my care.

UofU Patient
November 03, 2015
My first visit with Dr. Chaya. He was very friendly and seemed very through. He took extra time to explain how to clean my eye ducts.

UofU Patient
October 27, 2015
FEEL VERY CONFIDENT HAVING Dr. Chaya take care of my eye problem

UofU Patient
October 12, 2015
I would have liked more time with Dr. Chaya. His time in the room was pretty brief. I realized after the appointment that I wanted to ask questions. He gave me a website to check for more info, but personal interaction would have been nice. On my follow up visit, I will make sure I feel comfortable with all the information.

UofU Patient
October 06, 2015
Love Dr. Chaya

UofU Patient
September 28, 2015
see previous comments Such an improvement over my previous visit (@ Redwood Center)

UofU Patient
September 28, 2015
excellent

UofU Patient
September 14, 2015
Tende to talk a bit rapidly for older people to absorb what was being said. Assistant was good at clarifying later

UofU Patient
August 21, 2015
The doctor appeared to be rushed this day, but the wait was too long and he seemed much more abrupt than usual. I like him as a doctor but I had other commitments that day so the extra long wait was difficult. Usually the time frame is great.

UofU Patient
August 10, 2015
Dr. Chaya is an excellent physician.

UofU Patient
July 26, 2015
Dr. Chaya is obviously a very good eye doctor, He seems to want to list all possibilities of future problems or potential problems that may or may not ever actually happen. That tendency causes me to worry about my eye problems. I have come to believe that he is just being thorough in his way mentioning all the possible things that could go wrong.

UofU Patient
July 25, 2015
I had the surgeries on 04/01/2015 and 04/15/2015. I am still waiting for Dr. Chaya to return the necessary form Medicare needs for Walmart eye center can get my glasses done. I went to see him on 07/17/2015 to ask him to fax the prescription but there is a form Medicare requires filled out and signed by the doctor. Walmart has faxed the form to the doctor to the last fax number his secretary gave and today is 07/25/2015 and he hasn't done it. Please doctor Chaya sign the form in order for me to get my glasses I beg you it's been over 3 months and I get my eyes so red because I don't have the proper prescription eye glasses to read.

UofU Patient
July 11, 2015
good

UofU Patient
June 27, 2015
Very happy with Dr. Chaya and his ability to answer my questions and his ease in explaining everything to me.

UofU Patient
June 27, 2015
EXcellent Doctor!!!

UofU Patient
June 15, 2015
I received a diagnosis I was not expecting nor prepared for, so I appreciated that Dr. Chaya seemed to notice my tempered distress. Dr. Chaya provides a lot of eye contact and seems so sincere about his concern while being confident in his diagnosis.

UofU Patient
June 10, 2015
Wonderful experience!

UofU Patient
May 27, 2015
Dr. Chaya was rapid, precise and courteous

UofU Patient
May 26, 2015
I am very pleased with Dr. Chaya. I feel fortunate to have his excellent care.

UofU Patient
May 25, 2015
Dr. Chaya took an abundance to time to explain the results of my exam, the options available to me (including potential benefits and risks), and was patient in answering my concerns and questions. To me, he represented a very caring, compassionate and patient care provider.

UofU Patient
May 18, 2015
I completely trust Dr. Chaya's recommendations. He is very easy to discuss things with. When I leave the office I totally understand what results were and what the next instructions. I can't say enough positive about Dr. Chaya and his staff.

UofU Patient
May 05, 2015
very good

UofU Patient
April 22, 2015

I really liked that they print out an explaining page so when you get home you remember what they told you!!

UofU Patient
April 09, 2015
I appreciate Dr. Chaya's knowledge and concern for my well being. He is very thorough and wants the best outcome for me.

UofU Patient
March 24, 2015
Dr. Chaya and Todd were topnotch. Thorough, careful, kind, knowledgeable and thinking people! Not robots. Seemed to actually be interested in their work and happy to be of assistance.

UofU Patient
March 10, 2015
Good appointment - not sure if it really solved my problem but was a great start.

UofU Patient
March 06, 2015
Nothing bad ,just good

UofU Patient

Dr. Chaya is great and I have much confidence in him.

UofU Patient
February 21, 2015
Dr. Chaya and his support staff are a very professional and thorough job! Keep it up!

UofU Patient
February 21, 2015
I was seen by the fellow first and then Dr. Chaya. The fellow was very good at explanation of testing procedures used and and what they demonstrate. The fellow should be told of my impression of his excellence.

UofU Patient
February 19, 2015
Excellent

UofU Patient
February 08, 2015
Dr. Chaya was recommended to me and I have and will recommend him. He is caring, compassionate and extremely knowledgeable and always explains everything.

UofU Patient
December 24, 2014
Dr. Chaya is one of the best eye surgeons. He is doing a great job and he needs to be provided with additional staff if possible.

UofU Patient
December 12, 2014
Dr. Chaya is a very intelligent, professional, and thorough Doctor. I have been struggling to find a Doctor who was as caring and knowledgeable as he is and I am very glad to have him as a Doctor!

UofU Patient
December 11, 2014
Dr Chaya is a wonderful doctor ...very skilled and his "bedside manner" is excellent

UofU Patient
December 10, 2014
Very thorough, answers questions includes me in my care and decision making. Guides and directs.

Dr. Chaya is one of the very best doctors I have ever had. ( I have had many!) He is kind, courteous and explains everything very thouroughly and understandably.

UofU Patient
December 05, 2014
Both the assistant and Dr. Chaya were extremely thorough and provided excellent care.

UofU Patient
November 25, 2014
No bad experience!

UofU Patient
November 03, 2014
Great experience. I sent my son here for his annual exam and will recommend it to my sister and mother as well.

UofU Patient
October 28, 2014
the Attending physician was TOO professional, needs more warmth...felt like a "another number-patient" - next,,,

UofU Patient
October 28, 2014
I always have a positive experience at the clinic

UofU Patient
October 15, 2014
once I had his attention, Dr Chaya was much , much better in communicating than Dr. Z has been in my previous visits. I have seen 4 different physicians in each of the last 4 visits. I always ask to be seen by Dr Z when I get an apt. but I always get an associate. I

UofU Patient
October 12, 2014
always a good experience.

UofU Patient
October 07, 2014
The doctor was excellent. He solved a problem with my eyes that I have had for a long time. I am now able to wear contacts again. I am really grateful for the help he gave me.

UofU Patient
September 26, 2014
I think the above speaks for my experience . I felt very much at ease with a new doctor and his staff !

UofU Patient
September 20, 2014
good

UofU Patient
September 07, 2014
EVERYONE IS TERRIFIC - CAN'T GET BETTER

UofU Patient
August 08, 2014
The OD who referred me did not explain that it was for the possibility of laser treatment. The care provider gave me references to look up to get information about the procedure which I appreciate. I prefer to know more rather than less about what I might need to consent to. Unanswered questions I do not consider applicable to this visit.

UofU Patient
July 01, 2014
I'm very happy with having had Dr. Chaya recommended to me by others at the Moran center.

UofU Patient
June 30, 2014
Very nice and explained things very well. Thank you for the recommendations re dry eye care!

UofU Patient
June 19, 2014
They were doing a great job

UofU Patient
June 14, 2014
The doctor seemed to me to be quite young (lol) but he knew what to do and did it in a timely manor. Very complete with explanations of question we had.

UofU Patient
May 27, 2014
Providers at this clinic always appear rushed.

UofU Patient
May 18, 2014
This was my first visit with Dr. Chaya and I will definitely see him again in the future.

UofU Patient
May 12, 2014
Excellent Doctor! Even though he was extremely busy this day. He gave me plenty of time to explain my condition and answer concerns!

UofU Patient
May 11, 2014
Doctor Chaya was very good at explaining everything I needed and answered all my questions.

UofU Patient

He was focused and informative. he was very professional and kind.

UofU Patient
March 24, 2014
Dr. Chaya was referred to me becaus eof the care he has provided to other patients. I was very happy with my experience

UofU Patient
March 24, 2014
Dr. Craig J Chaya's pleasant and friendly demeanor made me feel more comfortable and less nervous. And I think he is very intelligent. My husband and I feel blessed to have had him remove my cataracts.

UofU Patient
March 02, 2014
DR Chaya was great best eye DR I have seen. I told my friends about him.

UofU Patient
February 24, 2014
I continue to appreciate the time that Dr. Chaya takes to explain my eye problems and the choices I have for try to correct it. He is a very interested and informed doctor.

Dr Chaya continues to show interest and concern about my problems. He is EXCELLENT about explaining my condition and possible treatment.

UofU Patient
December 24, 2013
Dr. Chaya is excellent regarding questions and concerns. He always explains procedures and medications very well.

UofU Patient
December 23, 2013
The doctor mentioned I should use tears to keep the dryness to a minimum and offered to provide a sample, but failed to follow up. On the other hand, he made an effort to send out the exam results to both my primary care doc and the endocrinologist.

UofU Patient
December 17, 2013
Generaly a good experence.

UofU Patient
December 15, 2013

My entire experience was a very positive one

UofU Patient
October 21, 2013
First time with Dr Chaya. I liked him a lot.

UofU Patient
October 18, 2013
Dr. Chaya on both visits seemed to be in a hurry.

UofU Patient

Very good experience

UofU Patient
October 14, 2013

UofU Patient
September 27, 2013
the print out I received after the visit was the best I have ever seen in terms of helpful information

UofU Patient
September 25, 2013
good

UofU Patient
September 23, 2013
This Dr was the best I could ever want. I am not a easy person to think a Dr is good.

UofU Patient
September 06, 2013
Good experience.

UofU Patient
August 27, 2013
Felt that the doctor took the time necessary to make sure I understood what I needed to know

UofU Patient
August 26, 2013
Felt very comfortable with my care. Everything was explained and follow up was handled well.

UofU Patient
August 23, 2013
I will recommend this case provider to my Mom. I asked for special assistance and it was all worked out immediately.

UofU Patient
August 12, 2013
I am very pleased to learn of Dr. Chaya's involvement in work with people in Third World countries

UofU Patient
July 03, 2013
Dr. Chaya gave me the printout of what we talked about. There were some terms/conditions that we may have talked about but no using that terminology

UofU Patient
June 11, 2013
This was my second visit to the Moran & I was much happier with this visit and provider than my previous visit. Dr. Chaya was very helpful and focused: listened well, explained well, answered my questions, and offered extra follow-up.

UofU Patient
May 29, 2013
By care provider, I understood to be the doctor (Optamologist). Not the Optometrist.

UofU Patient
May 25, 2013
Things went verry well.

UofU Patient
April 22, 2013
Dr. Chaya is excellent about explanations of diagnosis and treatments. He projects real concern about me as a patient and the sucess of my treatments.

UofU Patient
April 11, 2013
He showed compassion and was so friendly with my baby girl. He was able to explain what was going on and understand her follow up care. He provided excellent care.

UofU Patient
March 25, 2013
I've been looking for an opthomologist since Dr. MacDonald left Rocky Mtn many years ago. I was VERY pleased with Dr. Chaya and will return in the future for any eye problems or needs that I have.

UofU Patient
March 19, 2013
Dr. Craig Chaya did an outstanding job of providing careful analysis of my eye problem without raising concern about my condition. He was attentive, asked fact finding questions and seemed truly concerned about my comfort and treatment. I would recommend Dr. Chaya without question.

UofU Patient
March 14, 2013
Dr. Chaya (? spelling), saw me after normal hours. I did not feel rushed and his service was more than excellent. He took a lot of time double checking the tests on my right eye. I normally see Dr. Zabrisky for normal appointments. Since I was very concerned about a problem with my "good" eye, Dr. Chaya more than eliminated my concerns and provided excellent service way beyond expectations.

UofU Patient
March 08, 2013
Dr. Chaya seemed very thorough, capable and knowledgeable. My eye problem turned out to be somewhat serious, which wasn't great news, but he did not sugar-coat the situation and let me know what to expect, and what I needed to do for the best possible results.
