The patient satisfaction in primary care consultation-Questionnaire (PiC): An instrument to assess the impact of patient-centred communication on patient satisfaction.
<h4>Background</h4>Primary care consultation is significantly influenced by communication between the General Practitioner (GP) and their patients. Hypothesising that patient satisfaction can be tested based on an expectation-experience comparison, the aim of this article is to discuss t...
