Patient Satisfaction Survey
AUBMC wants to hear from you. Your opinion helps us continue serving you with excellence!
AUBMC conducts patient satisfaction surveys to assess and acquire the patient's perspective of the services provided at our Medical Center. Inpatient Satisfaction Surveys are being conducted on a quarterly basis. The interviews are performed with randomly selected patients discharged from AUBMC through telephone calls within 48 hours of discharge.

Outpatient Satisfaction Surveys are also being conducted on a semi-annual basis for a randomly selected group of patients who visit our Private Clinics and Family Medicine Department.

The main pillars of the initiative are: Trust, Inspiration, Encouragement, and Strength.
