Abstract

The amount of time patients spend for clinic services can influence their degree of satisfaction. We evaluated the time HIV patients spent in each service area and their overall satisfaction of services. Additionally, in-depth interviews of clinical staff provided their perceptions of patient satisfaction, patient-centered care and recommendations for change.
