Parental attitudes to a clinical examination in paediatrics.
A selected group of parents, whose children were patients in a recent clinical examination, declared, with one exception that this experience was not disturbing to them or their child. The overall impression given was of interest in the proceedings and of satisfaction that this was a tangible method of expressing their gratitude for the care their children had received. Complaints were few and related to organization rather than to the examiners or candidates.
