Exploring client satisfaction and determinants of family planning services at public health facilities in Debre Tabor town, Northwest Ethiopia: a mixed-method study

The study found moderate client satisfaction with family planning services in public health facilities, with significant disparities in residence, occupation, waiting time, method counseling, and preferred methods. Clients reported a lack of cultural sensitivity, misconceptions, and a lack of involvement in decision-making. To improve satisfaction, health facilities should strengthen client-centered counseling, address cultural misconceptions, and provide flexible service hours and training for providers.
