Meet Dr. Matthew Watson, O.D., owner of our clinic! Raised in Thatcher, Arizona, Dr. Watson’s journey to optometry began with a bachelor’s degree in Animal Science from New Mexico State University and a master’s in Ruminant Nutrition at Utah State University, where he also met his wife, Kathryn, and fell in love with the beauty of Utah.
He later earned his Doctorate of Optometry at Pacific University College of Optometry in Oregon. Driven by his passion for patient care and genuine love of people, Dr. Watson has found optometry to be a truly rewarding career.
Outside of the clinic, Dr. Watson is an avid outdoorsman and tinkerer. He and his wife enjoy raising their four wonderful children—and their not-so-average dog, Carl. 🐾✨
