Patients' Satisfaction and Dissatisfaction in Primary Care

My participants explained the ways in which they were satisfied or dissatisfied with the care they have received from their primary care doctor, which influenced their attitude toward it.

SATISFACTION WITH PRIMARY CARE

Cody

He felt relieved to finally know the truth about his condition and to have health goals moving forward.

DISSATISFACTION WITH PRIMARY CARE

Ashley

Ashley encountered misleading online advertisements while searching for her first health insurance plan. She explained that in the same way that cheap fast-food restaurants, i.e. Taco Bell, are not always a good, healthy choice to eat, "the cheap option isn't always the best option for you" in healthcare, as well. She felt healthcare.gov and the private insurance offered by her employer were pushed on her with little explanation of benefits.
