Doctors & Staff

Sherman H. Peirce, O.D.

Raised in Sandy, Utah, Doctor Peirce (yes, it is spelled Peirce not Pierce) has been with South Hills Eye Care since early 2008. He graduated with distinction from Pacific University in 2005 as a Doctor of Optometry. His undergraduate work was completed at the University of Utah where Dr. Peirce earned a Bachelor of Arts in communications. Dr. Peirce is fully licensed in Utah including therapeutic prescribing privileges. He is also an active member of the Utah Optometric Association and the American Optometric Association.

As a former communications major, Dr. Peirce takes pride in spending time educating and learning from patients. Besides optometry, Dr. Peirce enjoys sports of all kinds (either as a spectator or player) and backpacking in the Uinta mountain range. Most of his spare time, however, is contentedly spent at home with his three children and wife, Jocelyn.

Spencer D. Johnson, O.D.

Doctor Johnson, another local product, graduated from Brigham Young University with a Bachelor of Science degree in neuroscience. In 2005, he he received a degree from Pennsylvania College of Optometry as a Doctor of Optometry. Immediately after graduation, he established South Hills Family Eye Care in Draper, Utah.

In November of 2008 Dr. Johnson accepted a position at a refractive surgery center in Hartford, Connecticut. Dr. Johnson regrets having to leave his patients at South Hills but knows they will continue to be well taken care of. The responsibility of care of his patients has been turned over to Dr. Peirce.
