AB  - In the post-modern medicine and clinical governance framework a new perspective was developed to the concept of quality of the health services. Among the important issues in clinical governance is promotion of patient and public participation in health care delivery. This study was designed to determine values and priorities of patients in this issue. This study is a health system research. Target group were selected from the residents of Tehran municipality. Tehran was divided to 4 stratum (North-South, East-West) and samples opinions were investigated with a questionnaire about the characteristics of a good hospital and doctor. The questionnaire had two parts with 11 questions related to physician and 19 questions related to hospital. The first-choice "important" was selected more than any other choice for all the questions.
