Who this template is for

Patient Satisfaction Survey is built for clinics, coaches and therapists who need to collect intake detail and consent before the first session.

  • Clinics, coaches and therapists working in fitness, wellness & coaching.
  • Teams who need to collect intake detail and consent before the first session without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing paperwork eating the start of every appointment with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are clients and patients — the form asks them 28 questions across 4 screens.
  • Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of paperwork eating the start of every appointment and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 8 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
  • It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
  • It pins the request to a specific date.
  • It scores satisfaction on a consistent scale.
  • It measures sentiment on a numeric scale.
  • Conditional logic hides 4 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
  • Splitting the form across 4 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.

Logic and conditions blueprint

Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 4 conditional rules ship with it.

  • Features advanced show logic: if “Did anything go wrong during your visit?” is Yes, the form dynamically exposes “What happened?”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “Did anything go wrong during your visit?” is Yes, the form dynamically exposes “Did you raise it at the time?”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Would you like someone to contact you about your visit?” is Yes, “Your name” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Would you like someone to contact you about your visit?” is Yes, “Best contact number” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • All 4 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

About this template

Patient experience scores drift because practices ask about the doctor and forget everything around them. This survey covers the whole visit. The patient records the type of appointment, the department or clinician seen and how they booked, then rates access first: how easy it was to get an appointment, how long the wait was against what they were told, and how the reception team handled them. The clinical block rates whether the clinician listened, explained things in plain language, involved the patient in decisions and gave clear next steps, plus whether the patient left knowing what happens now — the single question that predicts a follow-up call more than any other. Facilities cover cleanliness, privacy and accessibility. Anyone reporting a problem is asked whether they raised it at the time and whether they want a callback, and asking for one requires contact details so the practice can act instead of guessing. The survey deliberately does not collect clinical detail, so it stays a satisfaction record rather than part of the medical record.

How the form changes as it's filled in

This template ships with 4 conditional rules, grouped into 2 behaviours driven by 2 questions. Everything below is already set up — edit or delete any rule once the template is in your workspace.

Driven by “Did anything go wrong during your visit?

  • Reveals questions

    If “Did anything go wrong during your visit?” is Yes, the form reveals “What happened?” and “Did you raise it at the time?”.

Driven by “Would you like someone to contact you about your visit?

  • Makes answers required

    If “Would you like someone to contact you about your visit?” is Yes, “Your name” and “Best contact number” become required before the form can be submitted.

Set it up step by step

  1. 1

    Send it the same day

    Trigger the link from your appointment system a few hours after the visit, while the wait time and the conversation are both still remembered accurately.

  2. 2

    Keep clinical detail out

    The opening note tells patients not to describe symptoms here. That keeps responses out of your clinical record and out of scope for records requests.

  3. 3

    Alert on callback requests

    Notify the practice manager on any response asking for contact, and treat those as complaints under your existing procedure rather than as survey rows.

  4. 4

    Report access and care separately

    Waiting times and phone access have different owners from clinical communication. Split them in the monthly report or you will act on the wrong one.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Asking one recommend-us question and nothing about access, which is where most complaints actually start.
  • Letting patients describe symptoms in a free-text box that then sits outside the clinical record.
  • Collecting callback requests without an alert, so a complaint waits a month for the export.

What it pairs with

Most teams don't run this form on its own. These are the forms and systems it sits next to.

What to do with the responses

Acknowledge callback requests within one working day, publish the monthly experience report to the practice team, and take recurring access issues into rota planning.

Works in both layouts

These pages cover the same subject ground as the patient satisfaction survey, matched on the words people actually search for.

Privacy & compliance

This form collects health information. Keep access limited to the people who need it, turn on encrypted answers for the clinical questions, and set a retention window so records don't sit in the dashboard forever.

Frequently asked questions

Is this survey a medical record?

It is not intended to be. The form asks about experience only and warns patients not to include clinical detail, so keep it in your feedback system rather than the patient record.

Should responses be anonymous?

Keep name and number optional so honest scores are possible, and require them only when a patient asks for a callback — which this form does automatically.

How often should we survey patients?

Continuously, triggered per appointment, and report monthly. Periodic bulk surveys over-sample the people with the strongest feelings in either direction.

Can we use it for telephone and video appointments?

Yes. Choose the appointment type at the start; the access and care questions apply to remote consultations, and the facilities ratings can simply be left blank.

Patient Satisfaction Survey — is it free?

Yes. You can preview and test Patient Satisfaction Survey on this page without an account, and take a copy into your own HelloForms workspace on the free plan. There is nothing to install and no card required to publish it.

Patient Satisfaction Survey — questions included

It asks 28 questions across 4 pages, 8 of which are required. Every question is listed in full further down this page, and each one can be renamed, reordered, made optional or deleted after you copy the template.

Patient Satisfaction Survey — editing and customising

Yes — the copy is entirely yours. Change wording, add or remove questions, switch between the classic and card layouts, restyle it to match your brand, and set who gets notified on each submission.

Conditional logic in a fitness, wellness & coaching form
