Description
Sara Kesserawi, Jutta Hubner, and Emadaldin Ahmadi survey in 2026 what shapes Arab immigrants' satisfaction with family doctors in Germany. Migrants often face language and system barriers that color their care. The team ran an online survey of 165 Arab immigrants who had seen a doctor in Germany, using standard scales for satisfaction, trust, health literacy, and cultural adaptation.
Satisfaction was moderate overall, with booking and waiting times the sorest points. Trust in the doctor proved by far the strongest driver of satisfaction. Higher health literacy and stronger adaptation each went with slightly lower satisfaction, which may reflect higher expectations. Social traits such as schooling did not matter.
