Specialty Services
People are satisfied with the specialty services offered by HUHS (81%). However, only 14% rated specialty services "excellent," reflecting an overall lack of enthusiasm about HUHS. People are less dissatisfied with specialty services than they are with other services (19% rating specialty services either "poor" or "fair").
Consistent with other health care services, delays (46%), misdiagnoses (27%), poor, rushed, or incomplete care (16%), and poor attitudes of providers (14%) remain primary reasons for dissatisfaction with Specialty Services offered by HUHS.
Students explain their reasons for dissatisfaction, using the following words:
"Didn't find helpful."
"Need more services."
"Diagnosis incorrect."
"Wouldn't prescribe medication when I needed it. "
"Just give medication - no good diagnosis."
