Patient Satisfaction

Why should patient satisfaction be important to you?

Patient satisfaction surveys and scores tell us (and you) how well we take care of our patients. High patient satisfaction scores indicate we are doing an excellent job of listening to patients and their families.

St. John’s Clinic ranks first in the nation in patient satisfaction among the largest multi-specialty clinics, according to a recent Press Ganey survey of 60 clinics with more than 100 physicians.

The clinic’s focus on patient satisfaction during the past two years had a positive impact with scores increasing each quarter - an unprecedented rise.

To provide the services our community needs and to deliver the quality care expected from one of the nation’s top clinics, St. John’s Clinic continues to annually recruit dozens of new physicians to southwest Missouri.
