Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought in many unique challenges and opportunities for patient care, and one is online healthcare practices. Patient satisfaction with online consultation is primary importance as online healthcare practices are evolving with time. Although previous research has examined how patient satisfaction with online doctor services can be further improved, there has been scant research on the satisfaction with online doctor services concerning Indian patients. Within the framework of service science theories, this study examines satisfaction and sentiments of Indian patients with online doctor services from multiple perspectives. A total of 38019 patient online feedback for 343 doctors was used for understanding patient sentiments. The sentiment analysis classified the reviews of the patients on online doctor consultation services. The finding suggests that healthcare service providers consider a systemic approach that includes core health services along with technical and marketing factors to proactively improve online patient satisfaction.
