For data collection was used the Patient Satisfaction Instrument, translated and validated in Brazil. The sample was comprised of 211 patients, of which 128 from Hospital A and 83 from Hospital B. The statistical program SAS was used in the data analysis. The results showed that all patients reported a high level of satisfaction, and the five situations with highest averages were related to the domains Confidence and Professional.
