Patient Satisfaction in Adjacent Family Practice and Non-Family Practice Navy Outpatient Clinics

Abstract

Patient satisfaction was assessed in adjacent family practice (N = 341) and non-family practice (N = 390) clinics at a Naval Regional Medical Center. Results indicated that patients in the family practice clinic were significantly more satisfied with care than those in the non-family practice clinic. Although older people and males were generally more satisfied with care, demographic factors did not differentially affect patient preferences for the family practice approach to ambulatory care.
