Jordan Private Doctors Family Planning and Breast Cancer Survey, May 2008

As part of the Private Sector Project for Women’s Health (PSP) monitoring and evaluation, PSP conducted a survey in May 2008 to measure the following: 

1. Knowledge and behavior of physicians in FP/BC. 
2. Number of clients coming to doctors for FP or BC services. 

The results of the survey would enable PSP to: 

• Identify gaps in the knowledge and behavior of physicians in FP/BC, and find ways to improve it. 
• Identify women’s major concerns regarding the use of oral contraceptives according to doctors. 
• Identify reasons that make women stop using oral contraceptives according to doctors. 
• Identify what makes a woman ask about breast cancer, according to doctors. 
• Identify future messages for our communications for the change of behavior component of our communication activities.
