                                          My decision to use surveys and interviews stems from the research's need to collect
                                          quantitative and qualitative data. In this way, a comprehensive understanding of the

                                          patient-provider interaction in the clinic can be obtained. Surveys have a good ability                                  60%                                 40%
                                          to capture a large volume of responses, so in this research, they were used to quan-
                                          tify interactive perceptions and patient satisfaction levels at different stages of treat-
                                          ment. On the other hand, I used the interviews for a deeper examination of experi-
                                          ences, and views, and for gathering information on the level of interaction in the
                                          physiotherapy process.
