Significant associations were found between each service quality dimension and patient satisfaction: reliability (p=0.001), responsiveness (p=0.002), assurance (p=0.001), empathy (p=0.001), and tangibility (p=0.001). Logistic regression identified assurance as the most dominant predictor (p=0.000; OR=6.422). The assurance dimension is the strongest predictor of patient satisfaction.
