Patient satisfaction: The importance of support in the decision-making process Thumbnail

Abstract

Long are the days when the success of an operation was determined by the surgeon alone. Surgical teams are increasingly eliciting the opinions of patients themselves to ascertain surgery success, argues Catrin Griffiths. It is vital for clinicians to identify patient expectations and help patients to develop realistic surgical expectations, as meeting these are key to satisfaction.
