Dr. Uttley graduated from New Mexico State University with a degree in biochemistry and obtained his medical degree from the University of New Mexico. After completing his residency in ophthalmology at the University of Minnesota, he underwent specialized training in a cornea and anterior segment fellowship at the University of Minnesota.

His specialty areas include corneal disease, corneal transplants, LASIK, and cataract and anterior segment surgery. He also sees patients for comprehensive eye exams and contact lenses.

“I enjoy working with patients to achieve their best possible vision. My ultimate goal is to be a good communicator and provide my patients with the necessary information and resources so that they can make the best possible decision regarding their eye care.

I found ophthalmology to be one of the most rewarding fields in medicine as it offers the unique opportunity to improve a person’s quality of life.”
