UofU Patient December 13, 2014
feel good
UofU Patient December 09, 2014I immediately felt comfortable with the assistant, nurse practitioner, and the doctor. I had a fantastic experience and knew that every one of them were truly concerned about me and my experience and my concerns. I am definitely looking forward to receiving more care from Clinic 4 and the staff that works there.
UofU Patient December 04, 2014She is wonderful
UofU Patient November 26, 2014Dr Vanhorn is the best. She explains everything, she's easy to talk to and always shows genuine concern.
UofU Patient November 20, 2014awesome doctor, very friendly and kind and I felt like she cared about me as an individual. very much enjoyed my time with her.
UofU Patient November 04, 2014I love Dr. VanHorn! I would follow her anywhere. I can't imagine seeing a different gynecologist.
UofU Patient October 19, 2014We think Jenny Van Horn is fabulous!
UofU Patient October 13, 2014Again, I am very happy I chose this practice and I'm thrilled with my entire experience.
UofU Patient October 10, 2014Everyone was very helpful and very attentive throughout the visit
UofU Patient September 25, 2014Dr. Van Horn is truly outstanding in all aspects of care. I have complete confidence in her medical knowledge and find her manner of interacting with me very comfortable. She is an excellent care provider and I would recommend her to other women without hesitation.
UofU Patient August 28, 2014Dr. Van Horn is wonderfully friendly and takes time to answer my many questions. This is my first baby, so I have lots of questions, but sometimes feel that certain topics wouldn't come up unless I remember to ask about them.
UofU Patient August 20, 2014All my dr have been really great. I like them all.
UofU Patient August 08, 2014Of the 90minutes total that we were at the clinic, we saw the NP for probably 15 and the MD for 5 or less. I do feel like most of my questions were answered and I had enough time with the providers (though MD interaction was definitely rushed), but it is outrageous to sit in a clinic for that long when the amount of time you are actually being seen by someone is so short!
UofU Patient August 07, 2014I had a very tough to talk about, personal concern that I spoke to Dr. Van Horn about. She was so great at making me feel like she was there for me through this and that we would get a plan together to address the problem. I felt so much better after the appointment because I could tell she genuinely cares and will help me through this pregnancy and do what's best for the baby.
UofU Patient July 10, 2014Dr. Van Horn was very thorough in her exam and comprehensive with my health care concerns. She takes her time and listens to all the patient's concerns. She makes you feel at ease during the examination. It is a privilege to be her patient.
UofU Patient June 13, 2014Dr. Vanhorn is an amazing doctor. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for an OBGYN!
UofU Patient June 08, 2014Dr. Van Horn had the perfect blend of compassion, technical expertise and the ability to explain what she was doing and what I needed and wanted to know. I trust her fully and see us as partners in my health care.
UofU Patient June 06, 2014Provider is amazing!
UofU Patient June 04, 2014I loved the midwife she was very nice and attentive. The doctor I'm not to sure about, she seemed a little aloof for the 5 minutes she spent with me. She told me about doing my labs and left the room, but wasn't really clear if the appointment was over or not.
UofU Patient May 30, 2014Dr. Van Horn is fabulous. Always takes her time and shows sincere concern.
UofU Patient May 28, 2014Dr. VanHorn was a wonderful provider who cares for her patients. She took enough time with me and made sure I was comfortable with the plan going forward.
UofU Patient May 23, 2014As always, Dr. VanHorn was friendly, knowledgeable, sympathetic, and quick (which in this case is a great thing!)
UofU Patient May 09, 2014Dr Trauscht-Van Horn is worth her weight in gold. She is has much wisdom, understanding, excellent doctor.
UofU Patient March 27, 2014Dr. Jenny Van horn is ultimately thee best physician in the entire University of Utah Hospital and Clinics. I feel fortunate to be her patient!
UofU Patient March 27, 2014Would recommend to everyone!
UofU Patient March 26, 2014Dr. Van Horn is amazing, I appreciate when she makes an effort to see me at each appointment. She always goes the extra mile. I would definitely recommend her to a friend!
UofU Patient March 24, 2014Dr. VanHorn is superb! She cares, listens and is at my level when she talks with me. She herself also follows up with me with a personal phone call. I appreciate the fine care I receive.
UofU Patient March 21, 2014I brought up a really big concern I have and felt like she was not understanding or listening. Her response something I have no idea how she plans to accomplish. It has left me feel in very un easy about how she will handle my cituation when it all plays out.
UofU Patient March 02, 2014This doctor is renown in the Salt Lake Valley for her thorough examinations, her knowledge of the field and its recent research, and her professional and at the same time caring demeanor toward her patients. She is in a class by herself, or with just a few others. I feel privileged to be under her care.
UofU Patient February 14, 2014Best care provider.
UofU Patient February 04, 2014Dr.Van Horn is fantastic!
UofU Patient January 31, 2014Dr. 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, 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 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 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 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 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 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, 2013routine exam
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 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, 2013Felt a bit rushed
UofU Patient June 24, 2013I have always loved Dr. Van Horn!
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, 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 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 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 28, 2013I love my doctor and her staff. Everyone is always courteous and considerate.
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, 2012excellent
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 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, 2012The doctor was thorough and considerate. She gave good explanations and was open to questions. It was a positive experience.
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 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, 2012I love how thorough she is in answering my questions. such a nice Dr!
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 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 11, 2012Dr van horn in awesome
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, 2012Vanhorn is always enthusiastic and welcoming. She is thorough and detailed. I enjoyed my experience here.
UofU Patient April 04, 2012Dr Vanhorn is great! So lucky I found her
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, 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 09, 2012Had a wonderful experience with physician.
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
