I know that not all hostas have to be in shade. I searched and have a list of hostas that tolerate morning sun. Does anyone have any favourites growing in the morning sun? Right now I have Sun Power, Liberty, Faith and Paul's Glory but have a spot for one more. Thanks.
I have several varieties of Hosta. Once planted they all seem to grow well in either shade or sun.
Most hostas will tolerate 2 or so hours of sun in the morning, especially those with yellow in their leaves. Since you imply that you have afternoon shade, then your garden is probably suitable for most hostas since it is usually the hot afternoon sun that causes the damage to some hostas.
I have probably 40 or 50 hostas in my garden, but the ones that I like the most are the "Hosta of the Year" award winners: [url]http://www.hostapatch.com/hostayear.php[/url]
For example, Sum&Substance is a huge hosta that is breathtaking. The Patriot hosta is smaller but also gorgeous and it has a lot of white in it so it shows up well in the shade of a tree. If you want a hosta with a lot of white in it, but can't find Patriot, then Minute Man is very similar to Patriot. The hosta "June" is a medium sized hosta that is very beautiful, tidy, neat looking plant. Guacamole is nice, but there are many nice ones.
Hostas really respond well to very fertile garden beds, so amend your soil with lots of compost, and some bone meal, etc. when planting.
my neighbour has hers growing in full afternoon sun, they are huge and they are flowering!

Reeves Taken in 21st Round by Hometown Toronto Blue Jays
Canadian product selected by Toronto for second time
FORT MYERS, Fla. – FGCU redshirt senior Mike Reeves (Peterborough, Ontario/St. Peter's Secondary) will get a second chance to play for his hometown team the Toronto Blue Jays, as the American League East Division squad drafted the left-handed hitting catcher in the 21st round with the 625th pick on the final day of the 2013 MLB Draft.
Reeves, who was selected by the Blue Jays in the 42nd round of the 2009 draft before landing in SWFL, caps a draft that saw a program record six FGCU players taken, a figure that doubles the previous record of three set in 2008 and 2011. Reeves marks the 18th player in the program's 11-year history to be drafted, all of which have come under the guidance of skipper Dave Tollett.
Out of the 11 draftees from the Atlantic Sun Conference in the first 21 rounds, six were Eagles. The A-Sun had a total of 18 players taken, seeing at least one player go in 13 of the 40 rounds. FGCU's six picks were a league-best followed by four from Kennesaw State and three from UNF.
Reeves finished his four-year career fourth in games played (191) and games started (181), but saved his best for last in 2013. Starting all 57 games, including 44 behind the dish, Reeves' .330 batting average was good for third on the club as he was the team's leadoff man 19 times and the No. 2 hole hitter the other 38 games. Reeves produced four hit streaks of seven or more games, coming away with a base knock in 44 contests and never went hitless in three straight games. He finished with career-highs of 47 runs scored and 73 hits to go along with eight doubles, one triple, one home run and 27 RBI en route to being named an A-Sun All-Conference second team choice by College Sports Madness.
A career .300 hitter, Reeves finished with a .400 on-base percentage or better in three of four campaigns. His 201 hits rank eighth all-time, while he's also ninth in runs scored (119) and fourth in walks (107). Reeves had a hit in 130 of 191 games played, supplying 51 multi-hit performances while being held hitless in three straight games just three times over his 181 starts. He also had 91 RBI, 25 doubles, three triples and five home runs.
Round | Pick | Player | Team | Position |

Mike Henry, son of the late Richard "Babe" Henry, reacts to the crowd after throwing the ceremonial first pitch of the Richard "Babe" Henry Imperial Valley Baseball Network Valley Baseball Classic as his family applauds in the background. (ERIC MILLER PHOTO / May 13, 2012) |
This year's Imperial Valley Baseball Network Valley Baseball Classic honored both local high school baseball and Richard "Babe" Henry on Saturday at Southwest High School.
The event featured three Imperial Valley League baseball games with Central Union High taking on Calexico, Holtville meeting Imperial and IVL-leading Brawley Union attempting to wrap up an IVL championship against host Southwest.
"It's the second year and it's to promote baseball and to get as many people out and get them excited and raise money for IVBN scholarships," said Brawley head coach and IVBN board member Pedro Carranza. "It's becoming an annual thing and we lost a home game last year, but it was for a good cause."
The IVBN was founded to promote local baseball and assist players from the youth level through high school and the Valley Baseball Classic is a natural extension of that philosophy.
"The whole reason we started doing this was that we wanted to bring the baseball community together in one place, try to get out a bigger crowd for the high school games and that the community would then continue to support them," said IVBN President Ruben Niebla. "We are here to help the teams and we are covering the classic's umpire expenses and are looking at hosting a local high school tournament next year to cut down on travel expenses."
IVBN board members Simon Canalez and Mickey Carter, along with members Craig Lyon and Oscar Quintero, organized this year's classic, which honors Henry.
Henry, who died last year, was a member of the IVBN's Hall of Fame.
Henry was the prototypical all-around athlete playing baseball, basketball and football at both Central High and Imperial Valley College.
Henry was drafted into the U.S. Army in 1952 and served two years in Germany, where he coached and played baseball.
After serving, Henry returned to El Centro, where he gave of his time working with the youth and refereeing football and basketball games as well as volunteering as an umpire.
Henry coached Little League, Colt League and Senior League baseball, also coaching girls' softball teams for several years.
Last year's classic honored the late Fred Yturralde.

Note: This feature appears in Mountaineer Gameday in Friday editions of the Charleston Daily Mail and Charleston Gazette. Daily Mail Sports Editor Chuck McGill provides numbers and nuggets for West Virginia University's football game. This week, he breaks down Saturday's matchup between the Mountaineers and the Kansas Jayhawks.
2 -- Getting consecutive road wins in the Big 12 is tough. West Virginia is 3-5 as the visitors since joining its new league before the 2012 season. The Mountaineers haven't won back-to-back conference road games since, but they have the opportunity this Saturday after taking down TCU in overtime on their last road trip.
4 -- There are four quarters in a football game and Kansas hasn't been able to control any of them. For the season, the Jayhawks have been outscored in every quarter, home and away, although they trail their opponents just 40-39 in the fourth quarter of home games.
7 -- The Mountaineers' seven-game run as the underdog - the longest such streak in program history (records date to 1985) - is over. WVU is about a touchdown favorite over struggling Kansas this Saturday.
That is good news for fans of the Mountaineers. WVU has won four consecutive regular-season games as the favorite.
8 -- The WVU defense might catch a small break this weekend. The Jayhawks have failed to score 20 points in eight consecutive games. That is not the longest drought in KU's football history, though. Kansas failed to score 20 points in 13 consecutive games in 1986-87. The last seven opponents have scored 20-plus points against West Virginia.
10 -- Kansas ranks last in the 10-team Big 12 in 10 categories: third down conversion percentage, fourth down conversion percentage, blocked punts allowed, completion percentage, first downs, passing offense, red zone offense, scoring offense, pass efficiency and total offense.
11 -- The Mountaineers have been to a bowl game in 11 consecutive seasons since Rich Rodriguez's inaugural campaign in Morgantown (3-8 in 2001). WVU needs to defeat Kansas this weekend and Iowa State in the regular-season finale to secure conditional bowl eligibility.

By Doug Smock
Staff writer
After landing Tiger Woods for its third rendition, The Greenbrier Classic has one obstacle left: Bring in the world's No. 1 player.
No, Woods is not the planet's big cheese. He's "only" No. 4, behind the British Isles trio of Luke Donald, Rory McIlroy and Lee Westwood. Woods has been No. 1 for 623 weeks total, but not since Oct. 31, 2010.
So why is that? And what is this thing called the Official World Golf Ranking, and why do we care?
Following is an attempt to simplify perhaps golf's most important index. Just don't try to calculate this at home.
A completely subjective formula endorsed by the four major championships and six leading professional tours - PGA Tour, European Tour, Japan Golf Tour, PGA Tour of Australasia, Sunshine Tour (South Africa and nearby nations) and Asian Tour. Other tours are taken into account, such as the Web.com tournament.
Finish high enough in any of the tournaments and you get world ranking points. After last week's action, there are more than 1,450 such souls.
This is computed on a rolling two-year basis. You keep the full number of points for 13 weeks, then they are reduced over the next 91 weeks by equal decrements. Divide those by your number of tournaments (minimum 40, max 52) and that's your average.
Not quite. The majors are weighted the highest, with some regular PGA Tour events counting less than one-third that value.
The Masters, U.S. Open, British Open and PGA Championships give 100 points for first place, 60 for second and at least 1.5 for anybody who completes the round. The winner of the Players Championship gets 80 points, while the others are decided by strength of field, with minimums varying by tour.
The strength of field is decided by a formula based on the current world ranking and year-ending tour ranking.
To provide a contrast, Woods received 56 points for winning the Arnold Palmer Invitational, 68 for winning the Memorial Tournament and 48 for winning the AT&T National.
Those figures dwarfed the 32 for the winners of the first two Greenbrier Classics. Not this year, though - the tour announced Tuesday that the winner gets 48 points and the top 50 places will score.
Having Woods, Webb Simpson, Scott Stricker and Phil Mickelson will do that - all told, the field has 14 of the top 50, 30 of the top 100 and 62 of the top 200 players.
Being No. 1 is prestigious and a worthy goal, but doesn't bring too many additional benefits. Other levels are critical, and help draw players to this week's Classic.
Top-50 players on certain dates get into the British Open and Masters and the U.S. Open has expanded that out to the top 60. The PGA Championship usually gives "special exemptions" to the top 100, and all 2010 U.S. Ryder Cup team members must stay in the top 100. (Jeff Overton hangs precariously at No. 95.)
Also, the top 50 on July 23 and July 30 get a berth in the World Golf Championships tourney in August at Akron, Ohio - a high-powered field with no cut and money for everybody.
Remember, Woods didn't play much in 2011 - 11 events, including a withdrawal and a missed cut. Woods had his points divided by 40, enough though he didn't play that many tournaments. And Woods is tied with Donald in major championships in the last two years - zip.
In 2011, Donald pulled off the improbable feat of topping both the U.S. and Europe money lists. He won four events, including the World Golf Championships' match-play event and Europe's prestigious BMW PGA Championship.
You could argue that the four majors should receive more weight, but the system appears to be logical (and complex). It does present some week-to-week oddities, however.
You may find the loudest critics are those who have taken the least time to understand the system. They should be assured of this: If Tiger Woods keeps on winning tournaments, he will eventually retake his perch at No. 1. His march continues this week.

November 10, 2004
COLUMBUS, OH - The Jackson Township Volunteer Fire Department in Pike County has received a 1983 Ford fire engine with a five-person cab through the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR).
The fire engine, with an original value of $24,000, was made available by the U.S. Forest Service's Federal Excess Personal Property program, which provides the equipment at no charge. The ODNR Division of Forestry administers the program in Ohio.
"This program helps local fire officials obtain important fire-fighting equipment that their limited budgets might not otherwise permit," said John Dorka, chief of the Division of Forestry. "The budget for a typical Ohio rural volunteer fire department is $35,000 per year, with some fire departments operating on $10,000 or less annually."
Items obtained through the federal program are provided to local fire departments under a loan agreement. When the equipment is no longer useable or desired, the fire department must return it to the ODNR Division of Forestry for disposal or reassignment.
Since July 1996, local fire departments in Ohio have acquired more than $7 million of equipment through the program, including fire engines, tanker trucks, pick-up trucks, vans, portable generators and pumps, compressors, hoses, nozzles, protective clothing and other safety equipment.
The Division of Forestry currently has cooperative wildfire suppression agreements with 325 fire departments located within the division's fire protection area, including eastern and southeastern Ohio, and the Maumee State Forest area of northwestern Ohio. Fire departments interested in the program should contact Rick Maier at 740-773-1574.

Integrator's Corner: How to turn technical data into engineering intelligence
By Bharath Chinamanthur
Investments in product testing have traditionally focused on data collection. However, analyzing this data and building easily accessible knowledge assets yields the greatest rewards. These tasks are the focus of engineering information management (EIM), the process of turning technical data into engineering intelligence. Testing organizations collect very large amounts of data. Organizations will need to archive some of this data forever and, in some cases, store data in a format that allows third-party inspection.
Companies distribute data repositories throughout the enterprise: Data collection and organization remain the responsibility of the test laboratories, while data management, administration, and storage are the bastion of corporate information technology (IT). This is the crux of the problem facing modern test laboratories.
Test engineers configure and acquire large volumes of data. But acquiring data is only the first step in the testing process. Manipulating and analyzing this data is the logical next step—and the primary reason for data acquisition. Analysis of the data leads to a critical step in the testing process—test disposition, which, after all, is why engineers conduct the tests.
Corporate IT treats test data as a vast collection of files, necessitating investments in massive file servers capable of storing test data. The mismatch between data organization formats and IT storage constraints leads to a failure to extract intelligence from test data.
Corporate IT looks at its users as greedy consumers devouring huge quantities of disk space in an endeavor to store everything "just in case it's needed in the future." Users save memos, notes, and specifications in multiple file servers across the enterprise. In an ever increasing drive to lower operational costs, corporate IT looks at file storage as an area that begs to be policed.
Exactly why do we hold on to test data? Test engineers conduct tests to arrive at a decision point regarding the performance of the unit under test against a design criteria or test criteria. The actual decision point is not continuous in nature, but rather a deterministic single-value metric embedded in the continuous stream of test data. It is this separation of single-value metrics and raw test data that is critical to the objective of extracting intelligence.
Test engineers lack industry-standard tools that can separately store the single-value metrics in a format that lends itself to powerful index searches. This gap leads to test engineers storing all three artifacts of a test process—test specifications, raw test data, and single-value metrics—in a standard word processing file (e.g., Word or Excel).
This method points out gaps that include the following:
- A consistent structured query language store that is transportable across organizational and divisional lines, which forces test engineers to share data in the same word processing file formats
- A configuration management system that can reprocess tests with complete data integrity, which forces test engineers to hold on to the complete test data
- A uniform binary standard for representing test data that leads to an ASCII storage format, which is very inefficient at storing a continuous stream of raw data
To achieve the twin goals of lowering IT costs and extracting engineering intelligence, test engineers need the following tools:
- central data repository
- configuration management
- test results/performance database
Implementing effective EIM can be a daunting task, but forward-thinking companies have shown the rewards in enhanced productivity, reduced costs, and improved morale. A proven technique has been for management to select a small project to test the EIM methodology, demonstrate the potential return on investment results, and showcase visible improvement throughout an organization. This approach helps identify areas of concern while providing a tangible framework for team consensus. The efficiencies gained through implementation of the EIM model can set the standard for an entire organization and help achieve the corporate mantra of "better, faster, and cheaper." ?

Leading volunteers, Part 2: How and what
What is it that we're doing as we raise up volunteers? And, how do we lead them effectively?
The key to healthy volunteer ministry is to find the balance between caring for the volunteers themselves and training them for their service. In Brandon's first post, we looked at the why and who of leading. In today's post, we'll look at the implementation questions of what and how.
The why comes before the how and what
They only reason anyone is volunteering at your church is because Jesus changed his or her heart. You are just stewarding and leading those whom God has gifted you. If you think it is because of how great a leader you are, you will rely on self and effort—and that will not get you far. Ask yourself this: When you are facing challenges or when you can't seem to recruit more volunteers, are you doubling you efforts, or going to prayer? If prayer isn't even on the radar, you functionally believe that your leadership is the answer rather than God's leading (Luke 10:2)—a precarious place to be.
Once you've got Jesus dialed in as the why for all you do, then, and only then, look at the what and the how.
What are you doing as you raise up volunteers?
You're promoting a culture of ownership
If you are stepping into a ministry role, step one is to build a core team who take their roles as seriously as you do. Hopefully, over time the whole team will have the same commitment as the core team, and ownership has been established. No one person can ensure that everything is done well—it needs to be a team of people working together being faithful with what they have been given.
Avoid doing their job for them, or they will end up expecting you to. You can and should be quick to help and guide, but the ownership needs to stay on the volunteer so expectations remain crystal clear.
You're expecting excellence
Serving the church is important. Serving people is important. People meeting Jesus is important (Mark 10:43–45). Allowing for poor quality gives the opposite message. You don't need to apologize for expecting that volunteers serve Jesus well.
How should you lead volunteers?
Be building friendships
Volunteering at church is not like your job; everyone you work with is your brother or sister in Christ. It is wholly appropriate and encouraged to build relationships with the volunteers you are leading as you are all part of the body. The best volunteer teams have a sense of community, or even family—just make sure that it stays an open community for all who would like to join.
Show you care
The best volunteers are joy-filled and fearless. When volunteers know that you care more about them personally than about everything running perfectly, they feel safe to flourish and want to follow you. If it becomes more about the operational objectives than about the people, you risk your volunteers becoming fearful and joyless, at which point they'll often want to leave.
Don't treat volunteers like hired hands
Volunteers are humble servants who have been transformed by Jesus to participate in the mission of the church. They are not minions; they are not staff serving under obligation (1 Pet. 5:2–3). Their service should humble you and fill you with gratitude (Phil. 2:3–4). Thank them constantly and sincerely.
Lead with clarity
An astounding number of projects fail due to lack of clarity. In this case, the burden of responsibility usually falls on the leadership, not the volunteer. If volunteers know with absolute clarity exactly what is expected, they rarely decide not to follow through. With more success comes more opportunity to lead through encouragement, rather than correction.
Encourage each leader to use their gifts
Every leader is at their best, and most joyful, when they are using the gifts God has given them. Don't force them into a mold, or expect that they would lead the same way you do. Recognize where they are most gifted and help them maximize those gifts. For example, some can lead from a platform, others through 1-on-1 conversations. Some lead through creating detailed systems, others through finding people who like systems so they can focus on people. The balance is always providing adequate support without suffocating their gifts (Rom. 12:6–8).
Correct with vision before rebuke
Here is a process for how to proceed if a volunteer needs correction:
1. Start with vision. Communicate the vision and importance of the role they are doing.
2. Ask them if they believe that their volunteer role matters. If yes, ask them to recommit and set up clear expectations of what that looks like. If no, then there may be some heart issues that need addressing. It will take wisdom and discernment on behalf the leader to work through this. Don't be afraid to remove them from their role, usually that is the best long-term decision.
Reserve rebuke for rebellion. This means, if a volunteer knows exactly what to do, why he or she does it, has been extended grace by their leaders, and still willingly chooses to let the mission of the church suffer, then a loving rebuke is warranted. Make sure this is done in person; heart doesn't transfer well through writing.
Always be training
If you are doing your job well, your volunteers and leaders will be growing, and will eventually move on to more leadership opportunities. Build ongoing training and recruiting cycles into your calendar year so you a never left forced to drop everything to find more volunteer and leaders. You will have to train eventually, so you might as well do it on your schedule.
Always have an apprentice
In ministry, the most indispensable people are those who can work themselves out of a job, which can seem a little counterintuitive. But if a ministry is going to grow and expand, then it's critical that leaders are building up people to step in and fill in roles as they move up or on. Therefore, job number one for a new leader is to find an apprentice. This will help them establish their core team, and develop the mindset of not trying to do everything themselves.
Check out Brandon's first post in this series, on the why and who of leading volunteers.

Dr. Vanhorn is the Best!! I have being seeing her for over 10 years. I recommed her to everyone!
UofU Patient January 21, 2014The doctors were wonderful and explained things thoroughly and patiently. They seemed happy to discuss and answer all of my questions and I did not feel pressured towards anything I was uncomfortable with.
UofU Patient December 22, 2013I needed to have a full appt to ask my medical questions. I was left waiting in the exam room for an hour and when doctor finally came, my appt was rushed and it was a yearly exam!t
UofU Patient December 12, 2013Dr. Vanhorn is awesome! No complaints from this patient.
UofU Patient December 10, 2013I love Dr. Van Horn. She is very friendly and makes me feel very comfortable.
UofU Patient December 08, 2013Dr VanHorn added me on for a biopsy early Monday morning. The clinic staff were friendly and I noticed that several times they called my by name. It is a little thing but adds a personal touch.
UofU Patient December 08, 2013Jenny VanHorn has a busy practice but is always pleasant and never makes you feel like she is in a rush. She called me about an abnormal pap smear and had me in for a biopsy within days. She is awesome.
UofU Patient November 21, 2013All three were great, concise but informative!
UofU Patient November 18, 2013I had a really good first experience with Kathleen? Frame and Dr. Van Horne. I felt like they were friendly, took enough time to explain everything well, and were willing to answer any questions I had.
UofU Patient November 12, 2013Dr vanhorn is great she always spends time explaining everything to me. And she makes me feel comfortable.
UofU Patient November 08, 2013As mentioned in most of my surveys, it is the wait time that would make me not recommend. Dr. VanHorn is great, as is most of the staff but the wait time (and what appears as a lack of sympathy from the front desk personnel) would make me hesitate.
UofU Patient November 05, 2013I was treated by Kathy and this was the first time I've seen her. But she was just as friendly and engaging as Jennifer and I was very impressed with her. She actively listened to me and answered all of my questions.
UofU Patient November 03, 2013I felt listened to, I felt cared for and I felt hope for the first time in years.
UofU Patient October 30, 2013I didn't see my doctor. I met her midwife instead, which I usually don't mind but NP didn't explain why she's there and where the doctor was. She also talked to me things very different than what I was told, wasn't friendly at all, explain things without any emotion. I know there are other NPs my doctor works with. I certainly don't want this NP back.
UofU Patient October 24, 2013I love Doc Van Horn and pay a lot of money to have insurance that the U will take. My company insurance only offers United Health Care. So I buy insurance on my own just so my family and I can continue to come to the U.
UofU Patient October 24, 2013I was seen by a Nurse Practitioner because Dr. Van Horn was away at a delivery. I can't remember her name but she was wonderful. I wouldn't mind seeing her again!
UofU Patient October 09, 2013NP did everything, Dr's time with me was limited and not very helpful
UofU Patient October 04, 2013Again, the wait time is a problem. If it wasn't so constant and long I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Dr. Van Horn but the time problems cause me to hesitate.
UofU Patient September 27, 2013I love dr Vanhorn shes always good to me and answers all my questions.
UofU Patient September 23, 2013Dr. Vanhorn is the best. I know exactly what is going on in my pregnancy because of the time she takes with me and my husband in each appointment. She doesn't spend so long to delay the rest of her clinic by making other patients late, but is great in the quality of her communication. We love her!
UofU Patient September 11, 2013I initially saw a NP because the Dr was behind (which has been the case EVERY visit I have had) and I told her that I was becoming concerned that I had hardly met the woman who was supposed to be delivering my baby and I'm at 30 weeks. She went to see if the Doc was available, which she was, and had her come in to address my concerns. Dr. Vanhorn appeared to be receptive so I can only hope that I will see her from now on for my visits until the birth. Otherwise, I don't know if I would recommend her to friends. She is very kind and obviously a great dr but she is extremely busy and it is hard see her even when she is the provider scheduled for my visit.
UofU Patient August 29, 2013the best :)
UofU Patient August 26, 2013Dr. Vanhorn is incredibly friendly at every visit. She always seems to be in a fantastic mood, and I never feel like a burden. I know I am in great hands with her care.
UofU Patient August 16, 2013As usual, Dr. Van Horn was wonderful! My mother was thrilled to meet her and felt the same way too.
UofU Patient August 16, 2013routine exam
UofU Patient August 10, 2013Excellent care.
UofU Patient July 15, 2013Trece and Dr. VanHorn were both really patient and reassuring.
UofU Patient July 15, 2013I would have liked to see the doctor instead of or in addition to the midwife. Both midwives who've cared for me have been excellent, but since the doctor will be delivering my child, I think it's very important to have the opportunity to develop a relationship with her.
UofU Patient June 24, 2013I have always loved Dr. Van Horn!
UofU Patient June 24, 2013Felt a bit rushed
UofU Patient June 17, 2013Dr. Van Horn is amazing!
UofU Patient May 31, 2013Dr. Jennifer and her assistant Therese were professional and caring - I feel very lucky to be under their care!
UofU Patient May 14, 2013Dr. Traust Van Horn also follows up with a phone call about lab results.
UofU Patient May 06, 2013I wish I could see my doctor and build a relationship with her. It is hard to get to know someone in just one visit. I not feel like any doctor should have more patients than they are able to see. I want to be more than just a number. I value relationship.
UofU Patient May 06, 2013Dr. Vanhorn is great at listening to and addressing any of my concerns. This is my first pregnancy, and I am amazed at how patient she is with me. She goes the extra mile to assure me everything is going as expected. She has a great balance of high energy friendliness and seriousness about medical issues. I absolutely love her!
UofU Patient April 28, 2013I have enjoyed working with all the NP's and Dr. Vanhorn. They have kept me well informed. Have been very courteous and professional. I felt that they have showed good concern and listen when I talk with them about any concerns I may have. I felt that they addressed my questions very thoroughly. I like that they always take the time to sit and listen to me. It makes me feel more valued as a patient.
UofU Patient April 23, 2013I appreciated Dr. Van Horn calling me, herself, to let me know the results of my test.
UofU Patient April 15, 2013I have only met my OB once at my 1st appt. (after waiting 2 1/2 hours), since then, I have only been seen by a NP for 30 weeks of my pregnancy. I was not happy with the care I was receiving, so I switched to a new OB at 31 weeks. I am VERY happy now.
UofU Patient April 15, 2013Dr. Vanhorn has such great enthusiasm why showing genuine concern. A nice combination. She is attentive and patient with my many questions. Love her!
UofU Patient April 03, 2013These comments all apply to the care provided by Dr. Trauscht Van Horn who was excellent. I had far less confidence in the PA who saw me prior to the Dr. visit.
UofU Patient March 25, 2013GOOD
UofU Patient March 20, 2013Dr. Van Hornw was amazing. I feel like she really cares
UofU Patient March 15, 2013NP Kathleen and Dr. VanHorn were very kind and attentive
UofU Patient March 15, 2013Dr vanhorn is amazing! Best doctor i have ever had
UofU Patient March 13, 2013Dr. Van Horn and Rita are both wonderful to work with.
UofU Patient February 18, 2013I have never had the MD or the midwife talk to me about nutrition or appropriate weight gain during my pregnancy. Why isn't this part of the standard?
UofU Patient February 18, 2013Kathleen Frame was great at listening to my problem and desire for treatment. I felt very safe in her care and appreciated her listening to me so well.
UofU Patient February 18, 2013good experience
UofU Patient January 28, 2013I love my doctor and her staff. Everyone is always courteous and considerate.
UofU Patient January 28, 2013The doctor was excellent - very professional, intelligent, and caring. In addition, she takes the time to explain the procedures as she is performing them and to listen patiently to any of my concerns. Could not ask for a better Ob/Gyn - a credit to this hospital and its community of doctors.
UofU Patient January 21, 2013I love Dr. Van Horn. She is extremely competent and pleasant and I always feel my questions answered and that I've been well taken care of in her care.
UofU Patient January 18, 2013Dr. Van Horn is always nice, and always answers my question. However, I am 30 weeks pregnant, and have only had 2 appointments with her. The rest have been with either the midwife or a nurse practitioner. Since I am in my last trimester, I now always request to be seen by Dr. Van Horn. However, I feel that I should not have to ask to be seen by my doctor- I feel that I should be seen by my doctor at all of my appointments, unless she is sick or on vacation.
UofU Patient January 15, 2013Dr Van Horn is awesome. She is very caring and informative.
UofU Patient January 14, 2013I think the staff and providers in Clinic 4 should have an in-service about the Hypnobirthing class offered at the U hospital.
UofU Patient January 09, 2013very friendly, shows concern and explains things well.
UofU Patient December 31, 2012My friends need a gynecologist familiar with problems experienced by older women. I would recommend Jennifer to someone who is pregnant or of childbearing age. She did refer me to a neurologist. I'd like to know about the specialties of different gynecologists.
UofU Patient December 20, 2012I was scared to death of the LEEP procedure. Dr. Vanhorn and the Nurse were able to sedate me and I am so grateful. I feel they went out of their way and showed genuine concern for my health. I cannot thank you enough for making this tolerable, you promised it would be and I can't thank you enough for your care and concern!
UofU Patient December 19, 2012I would recommend the nurse I saw, but not my doctor that I was supposed to see.
UofU Patient December 10, 2012Dr. Van horn was wonderful, and actually called me at home later to follow up on the appointment.
UofU Patient December 10, 2012excellent
UofU Patient December 03, 2012I love Dr. Van Horn, she is very attentive to my needs and always listens! I also love seeing Rita and Kathleen, they are always helpful and I trust them with my care. Awesome team!!
UofU Patient November 26, 2012My only complaint is how busy she is. Excellent otherwise.
UofU Patient November 19, 2012Nurse Practioner was super nice and helped me with all my questions that I was worried about. I would totally recommend Dr. Vanhorn and her nurse practioner to anyone. :)
UofU Patient November 19, 2012The doctor was thorough and considerate. She gave good explanations and was open to questions. It was a positive experience.
UofU Patient November 05, 2012I thought she was very nice. She answered all my questions and went over my medications and what to do with them with my medical history.
UofU Patient October 22, 2012I really like my doctor though and liked the midwife I saw also.
UofU Patient October 15, 2012Been with Dr. Van Horn for many years.......great lady and fantastic doctor
UofU Patient September 24, 2012It has been ~9 months since I last saw Dr. Van Horn. She clearly reviewed my chart and my history before I met with her -- there were details about my history (both medical and personal) that she knew and asked about when we talked. Her attention to detail made me feel extremely well cared for. I have already recommended her to friends of mine, and I will continue to do so!
UofU Patient September 21, 2012I would highly recommed Vanhorn to anyone! She is very thoughtful and helps me out on things i need answered and my concerns.
UofU Patient August 16, 2012I would love to recommend Dr Van Horn to others
UofU Patient July 25, 2012She is an excellent doctor so I have no problems waiting to get an appointment or waiting in the waiting room.
UofU Patient July 16, 2012The PA is always so welcoming and happy! The NP is so nice and calming to help me with my answers. the Doctor (vanhorn) is just so happy and always has a smile on her face which i love to see that makes me know she loves her job and what she does is what
UofU Patient July 16, 2012I love how thorough she is in answering my questions. such a nice Dr!
UofU Patient June 11, 2012Dr van horn in awesome
UofU Patient June 11, 2012What is not to love about Dr. Vanhorn?? She is so positive and caring - I love her! I felt that all of my questions were answered, and she followed up on my labs. I feel fortunate to have her as my physician.
UofU Patient June 04, 2012Dr. Van Horn is a very caring doctor.
UofU Patient May 09, 2012I felt very comfortable and welcomed.
UofU Patient April 25, 2012I have recommended Dr. Van-Horn to many friends.
UofU Patient April 19, 2012The appointment only lasted 5 minutes so there wasn't that much discussed. Just a normal monthly check-up.
UofU Patient April 17, 2012Dr van horn is wonderful. She spends time answering all of my questions and is open to giving me options about how my birth will go.
UofU Patient April 13, 2012I am grateful to have such good care at this clinic. I feel like Dr. Vanhorn and Rita care about my health and are always willing to answer any questions or talk about any concerns that I have. They are both very kind and knowledgable.
UofU Patient April 04, 2012Dr Vanhorn is great! So lucky I found her
UofU Patient April 04, 2012Vanhorn is always enthusiastic and welcoming. She is thorough and detailed. I enjoyed my experience here.
UofU Patient February 14, 2012I love Dr. Van Horn, she is a awesome provider and makes you feel like you are her only patient!!
UofU Patient February 13, 2012My doctor always spends a great deal of time to talk about my issues.
UofU Patient February 09, 2012Had a wonderful experience with physician.
UofU Patient February 09, 2012I didn't get much time with the Doctor herself because the clinic was very busy. I understand this however, and was not angry or annoyed. I just dont know her well enough to say if I'm confident or not in her and if I would recommend her.
UofU Patient February 08, 2012My past three visits were with NPs, they were all great, but I do want to see the doctor herself, so maybe space out the doctor's times with NPs so I feel I get seen by the doctor herself more often.
UofU Patient January 26, 2012It would be nice if the providers use some diagram to explain things since everything was done by orally.
UofU Patient January 13, 2012I have had very very good experiences with Dr. Van Horn, and have already recommended her to a number of my friends.
UofU Patient January 10, 2012Dr. Vanhorn called me after my last visit and answered other questions by phone; I was very impressed that she would call me personally not just have a secretary call
