Guest guest Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 When I first came to the Umpqua area in ‘84, Bob was very welcoming and helpful. He was always helpful with difficult cases. When I moved to Eugene, I knew I was leaving my patients in good hands with Bob. I am saddened to hear of his passing.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 I remember Dr. Hovenden from when I took the Oregon boards in 1985, I believe he did one of the orthopedic exam portions. He was so relaxed and easy going, made me feel like a colleague instead of the nervous recent grad that I was. I hope that when he sat for his "great beyond" exams, he was made to feel as welcome and relaxed as did for me when I sat for the boards. Godspeed, Dr. Hovenden!

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 Bob was one of the first Dcs to welcome me as I joined Oregon ... a wonderful encounter that made me feel so welcome and part of the group.
