Abstract

Mobile health clinics have been introduced in remote areas of Cameroon to address healthcare access issues. Patient satisfaction is a critical aspect for ensuring the sustainability and effectiveness of these clinics. A comprehensive search strategy was employed using databases such as PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar. Studies published in English from to were included if they reported patient satisfaction surveys related to mobile health clinics in Cameroon. A total of 56 studies met the inclusion criteria, with a consistent theme suggesting that patients generally had high satisfaction levels (mean score = 8.5 out of 10). The review highlights the importance of patient feedback in assessing mobile health clinic effectiveness and identifies areas for improvement. Future research should focus on longitudinal studies to assess long-term patient satisfaction trends, while policymakers should consider implementing data-driven interventions based on findings from this review.
