Frequently Asked Questions

When should pediatric practices survey parents?

1–2 hours after the appointment is ideal. Parents have settled down and can reflect on the experience. For vaccination visits, send same-day to capture immediate impressions.

What should pediatric surveys focus on?

Doctor communication and patience, child-friendliness of the environment, wait time, staff friendliness, vaccination experience (if applicable) and NPS. Keep it under 5 questions.

How can surveys improve the vaccination experience?

Surveys reveal what matters most to parents during vaccinations — distraction techniques, pain management, emotional support. This data guides training and reduces vaccination-related anxiety for families.

Should I survey about teen patients differently?

Yes. For teens, consider surveying both the parent and the teen (with consent). Teens value privacy and being treated maturely — their feedback provides unique insights.
