Patient satisfaction is a top priority at Doctors Hospital. To show our commitment to patient satisfaction, Doctors Hospital has implemented a Service Excellence training program, developed by Health Management Consultants, Inc. The program supports the philosophy that there are many different ways of dealing with service excellence rather than only “one right way”. The program emphasizes the concept that what works for one situation or employee may not work for another. Therefore, training encourages thinking and analyzing situations encountered so that the appropriate behavior or technique is applied. Every employee of the hospital, starting with the CEO and including all senior staff, are required to participate in a workshop.
