Survey research into patient satisfaction has been responsible for developing a number of related concepts concerning the ways in which patients evaluate the health care that they receive. Recently doubts have been expressed as to the adequacy of this approach for understanding how patients anticipate and respond to medical encounters. This paper reports a study of patients attending neurological outpatient clinics. The results suggest that the conceptual framework deriving from patient satisfaction research provides only partial and sometimes misleading insights into the perspectives of the patients studied. The paper concludes that patients' varying concerns with regard to their illness need to be more directly considered in explaining different responses to medical consultations. This approach enables a more sensitive evaluation of health care from the patient's point of view.
