Dr. Pettey was so nice and took the time to answer all of my questions. I was a new patient so he was very thorough in telling me what I needed and when. He helped calm my fears of surgery and was so good to tell me the positive points of the future of my eyes. I was very pleased with the care that I received from him and his staff.
It was my first appointment with Dr. PETTEY¿ I was impressed with his knowledge of my previous condition¿ Again, this is the first time I met with this particular physician. Clearly he did his homework. Engaging And personable.

He understands my needs and explains thoroughly any questions I may have. He's THE BEST!!!
Dr. Pettey did a through exam on both myself and my husband. We did not feel rushed and appreciated his listening skills.
He is always extremely kind and respectful. I couldn't expect more from him. This visit was a little different from those in the past. Not in the way he treated me. He was still a very respectful and professional man, but that he was running behind and trying to catch up on time. When I checked in there was 4 people ahead of me waiting to be seen, and while I waited 3 or 4 more came in. I had been having issues with my eyes for 11 months since my last yearly visit. Due to the distance we travel to see him I waited for my next annual check. When I did see him, he glanced in one eye and said the dry eye is a big reason for the pain. He put in plugs to help me. He never checked the other eye or checked any other issues. It would have been better for me to have them reschedule. me for another time. I had been waiting for months to see him and to get such little exam was a disappointment. Nothing to do with his professionalism, just lack of examination.
Excellent and pleasant surgeon . Treating with courtesy and respect and explaining the procedure with great patience

Dr. Barr, the resident, and Dr. Pettey we're both clear, patient, and provided both answers to my questions and the larger context of knowledge that was informative for me.
A good outline was given of my options for the lens we utilized in my cataract surgery.

The most professional Doctor ever. he under promised and OVER DELIVERED. There are not enough words to describe his expertise, his wonderful manner with patient and family. The very best Doctor ever. I enjoy my entire team of Doctors from the University; and the only problem is that they are all so busy and appointment times are fairly far out. It is worth going to the best to wait. Dr. Petty is awesome. FYI I used Dr. Berman, and now Dr. Meriac as well as have used Dr. Craig for years, and Dr. Clarke. THese three are equalaly excellent.

Dr. Jeff Pettey is the referent for the above questions. However he did not perform the procedure. He passed me off to Dr. Long (?)
He is extremely easy to talk to. He treated me with the greatest of respect. I would highly recommend Dr. Jeff Pettit.
Dr. Petty has the most up to date techniques for cataract surgery. It is so easy for the patient. The results are amazing.
He's fantastic
I think Dr. Jeff Patty is highly experienced and provides customized treatment based upon patient's needs. However, his team does not provide regular communication to the patients about the waiting time. I visited him twice and each time I needed to wait around an hour. I have not received regular communication from the doctor's team. It was really frustrating. The medical assistant I saw, had little or no interest to know the disease history, how I am feeling with the treatment I was going through. She felt very annoyed over me for no reason. She was even hesitant to talk to me. I never had this type of experience with a medical assistant in a medical care environment. I hope that the hospital authority will be aware of this situation and will take appropriate measures. Thank you! I got an impression that the medical assistant even did not even care about me. She spent least minimum time with me. Next time, I would try not to be seen by the same medical assistant again.
I can't imagine a more caring doctor. I am thrilled to have him as my caregiver
Dr. Pettey is incredibly kind, warm and caring.

Dr Hu and Dr Pettey were both fantastic! I'm sure they deal with hundreds of old guys like me per week yet I genuinely felt I was the most important patient in the world to them. They were friendly, engaging and gave me lots of information about my surgery and further treatment. I felt as though my thoughts and input were highly valued.
We love Dr Pettey.
Dr. Pettey excels at explaining the eye and eye care. I arrived at the clinic carry significant worry over an elective vitrectomy. That would be performed by Dr. Jacoby. Jeff walked me through the pros/cons of the procedure, described possible adverse outcomes, and assured me that, If he were in my shoes, he would elect the procedure ("without hesitation"). His confidence and clarity lifted the worry burden I arrived with. That meant the world to me.
Excellent, and better than usual/better than most at seeing the experience from the patient's point of view.
So very professional and caring and took the time to see me. Both were AWESOME. Thank you Thank You!!

I went to see Dr. Jeff Pettey for my biannual checkup for glaucoma. Of utmost importance was determining whether the disease has progressed. I saw the usual battery of assistants before seeing the doctor. Sandra, a new assistant came in first; she gathered my recent health history and typed it as fast as I could say it! Having just had eyelid surgery on [DATE REMOVED], I needed a new eyeglass prescription, and she took care of that in short order. Her most important check was my eye pressure; at 12 and 13, it turned out to be normal. She next accompanied me to the Moran radiology lab where a British lady took digital x-rays of my eyes-it was my first experience with that examination. Then I saw Dr. Pettey. He painstakingly reviewed all the data, both from my eyelid surgery (for which he provided the referral) and from the new information gathered during the office visit. Dr. Pettey was pleased with the extent of the study and its outcomes. He provided me with copies of both my prescription for glasses and my Lumigan eyedrops for glaucoma. Then, taking into account my overall health status, he thought that my progress with his treatments to be reasonably good, but he concluded on a new concept. He said that over the years ahead, I would likely stay free of further glaucoma setbacks by receiving cataract surgery. Surgical treatment improves the flow of ocular fluids and blood circulation in the eyes, which will help me avoid additional flare-ups. This gave me a vision of staying free of blindness over the long term. Dr. Pettey exhibited his usual expertise and positive bedside manner, as he has been my provider for the past eight years, having been recommended by his predecessor Dr. Goldsmith. Dr. Pettey is brilliant yet unassuming and welcoming. He must have high intelligence; he is a master of ophthalmology. His expertise shows when making prompt diagnoses, explanations, and prescriptions. He is well known in the department for how he delegates to his technicians and trainees, and he expedites his services. He was at ease despite all the problems I presented, which enhances a patient's respect and allegiance. I enthusiastically recommend him along with all my other U of U doctors to my friends and associates. In terms of a merit rating if it is required, Dr. Jeff Pettey deserves the most superlative, far more than a mere five stars or A+++.
Flawless.
Dr Pettey has shown deep knowledge of my condition and has provided excellent care
I recommend Dr. Pettey to friends and colleagues whenever I have the chance. I am delighted with his care.

Personable, detailed communicator.
Love Dr Pettey, so glad he comes to Park City once a week
the doctor was very nice and knew exactly what to look for and answered all my questions. He put me at ease and gave me expert advice on what to do and what to watch for.
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.
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.
Dr. Pettey is exceptional in every way. He is patient with questions, listens intently, and genuinely cares. I have complete confidence in his care and feel grateful to be treated by him.
I have complete confidence in Dr. Petty. Very professional and caring.
Dr Pettey was very thorough and personable. he explained things well.

I ask a lot of questions. All were answered and other information added in language I can understand. Thank you.

I had time to ask questions. The packet provided had QR Codes to brief informative videos. I appreciated sample forms were provided that shared what I would be asked to sign the day of the procedure.

Dr Pettey has been very helpful working me through my issues.
Provider and doctor consulted together about my cataract and scheduled me to see another doctor 2 months later. They could not explain what they had discovered/were concerned about. They said the next doctor might be able to tell me something...I like to understand my own health and research the possibilities to develop confidence in the choice of plan going forward. So that was a little scary and frustrating. So now I'm waiting with very little understanding. Your reputation is so high that I'm hoping it will work out with good sight in both eyes. I'm not even sure if the problem effects one eye or both. Is it a simple problem or a really serious one. Fortunately my memory is poor and I may forget this part, of the time.
I still wonder, if we should have done, one eye nearsighted and the other one for distance. I've also, never had that before, in glasses! I still believe, I had excellent care!
I am glad to be able to access the UofU's excellent health system.
Professional and personable.
Excellent customer service and care for my well being!
Dr. Petty is always easy to talk to and shares easily.
This is difficult to evaluate. The Resident was terrible the doctor was better, especially when I asked if he would LISTEN and he did. So this is an evaluation of the doctor
Dr. Pettey was caring, compassionate, and knowledgeable. He explained my treatment options thoroughly and clearly.
Dr. Pettey was excellent in explaining and performing my procedure.
Dr. Pettey is excellent. This was a follow-up visit. He explained what he was doing during the exam, and gave me very good advice for at-home care of my eyes in general--simply using a hot compress for my eyes. I purchased one and noticed some improvement since using it.
I think he is the best.
I felt very comfortable and that Dr. Pettey was very qualified.
Excellent!!!
Jeff is the best! I completely trust him with my eye care.
Wonderful!
Dr. Petty treated me with respect, and was very detailed in his analysis of my situation.
Very knowledgeable and makes you feel comfortable. I trust Jeff and I would recommend dr Petty to family, friends or anyone.
Dr Pettey always takes time to listen to my concerns and answer questions
Dr. Pettey is caring, knowledgeable, competent, and he listens.
He was friendly, approachable and very nice. He completed my driver licensed exam and today I renewed my license.
I went to the Moran Clinic because of their reputation and because I wanted to see an actual doctor about my sight concerns. My exam given by the very cold technician (not the doctor) was very mechanical and distant. I would talk about my concerns to a someone who wasn't interested at all. I have had much, much better eye exams at the mall. The doctor came in 30 minutes late, spent 10 minutes with me just spouting his opinions, not addressing my issues, and left.
Dr Walker listened and explained everything very well.
There was no interaction with the DR. I was ay Moran one and a half hours and spent 5minutes with Dr. Petty . Yes, I a, old but my interaction with him made me feel very old. He was very vague in his responses to me. I have been a patient at Moran for many many years , I took my mother to her appointments there. The energy and compassion of Alan Crandall is certainly missing. We all get old, his empathy and compassion was missing. Let not certain if I should get a new prescription or not. I would like to see someone else.
Dr. Petty is excellent.
Dr. Jeff Pettey is amazing.
Again, my experience was excellent.
Dr Pettey take excellent care of the patients and explains everything

Dr. Crandall is a hard act to follow but Dr. Pettey could possibly fill his shoes! I liked him a lot and think he is very good.
Dr. Petty & Sandra are the BEST. We are So Blessed with their care?
I haven't seen Dr. Petty in a couple of years. But he is as I remember him. Friendly, careful to explain things clearly.

I am extremely pleased with the care and vision outcome following bilateral cataract surgery performed by Dr. Jeff Petty. I would highly recommend Dr. Petty for any ophthalmic care.
Good Experience
Dr. Pettey listened and also explained what the exam showed and what he was writing down. He made the appointment enjoyable while explaining what I needed to know.
The assistant evaluate me and then said that the doctor will be with me shortly. 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.
they provided me with a lot of information about my options.
Dr. Pettey is empathetic kind and amazing. He informed me of things that really calm my nerves.
Awesome!
He is so nice and polite and seems to really care

I was very unhappy with the amount of time I had to wait for the doctor to see me. No one communicated with me and left me in that office to wait for the doctor. Ay my eyes were dilated , a friend kindly accompanied me, but we were in that office for 3 hours!! I feel the communication is substandard and there is no respect for patient's time. I had a very disappointing experience yesterday.
Good
I am suffering from an as yet undiagnosed condition. I have been struggling to cope with it. Dr. Petty agreed with me when I said I didn't feel able to take on anything else in my life at this time.

I feel very fortunate to have such a caring and skilled physician.
First time seeing this doctor. Thought he already knew me. Badge turned backwards so not sure who he was. Assistant did all the work thourghley. Doctor barely looked at results.
He had a student accompanying him and was careful to explain to her what he was doing as well as telling me what was going on.
The staff listens to what I am saying regarding my vision issues. I just thought I needed new glasses, but there is more going on than needing a new prescription.

Just a check up. We really like Dr. Pettey.
OUTSTANDING and EXTRAORDINARY by even the very high levels of care that I receive at the U.
DR Pettey did not seem interested with my issue with constant yawning (still visible behind the mask). I didn't want to take up any more of his time so didn't cover everything I had hoped to address, as Christopher had marked down prior. He just wanted me to take a daily baby aspirin and be done with it. At least, that is the feeling I got.
Good
Exceptional care
Excellent, highly personalized, care. The provider addressed all of my needs efficiently without leaving me feeling rushed.
Dr. Jeff Pettey is and was overall AMAZING
Petty is probably a great doc, but that's not something I can judge. He spends as much time as your need to answer questions. He has a warm/friendly personality. He exudes confidence. I like him. He's in the top 2% of physicians that I have experienced and that's saying a lot.
Dr Petty checked and rechecked my RX because the last time I got a RX the glasses were not correct.
