Data were collected using a structured questionnaire with a four-point Likert scale and analyzed descriptively. The research results show that the five dimensions of service quality, received positive ratings from the majority of respondents, with agreement rates ranging from 75% to 78%. Physical facilities and cleanliness support patient comfort, while services generally align with established promises and procedures. Staff are also rated as responsive and capable of providing clear information, although administrative procedures still need to be simplified. Staff competence and polite attitudes create a sense of safety and trust among patients. Staff attention to individual patient needs further enhances the positive relationship between patients and healthcare personnel.
