Based on face-to-face surveys of 400 hospital patients in Bangladesh and using structural equations modeling, our findings show that for multiple-encounter services, the three dimensions of service quality that emerged reflect key actors’ performance. We also corroborate, as a validation of our model, that there is a positive link between service quality and satisfaction, as well as between satisfaction and loyalty, reflecting a mediating role of patient satisfaction.
