Patient Experience Survey - Your Voice Matters
Your Voice Matters:
- is a set of questions that gives you the chance to share your thoughts about your most recent appointment with your cancer centre or hospital
- is a way for you to share how you feel about your care so that improvements can be made for patients and caregivers locally and across Ontario
- takes approximately 5 minutes to complete
- is private and confidential – your healthcare team will not know your answers and your answers will not impact your care
The overall results from Your Voice Matters will help your local hospital or cancer centre, and Ontario Health (Cancer Care Ontario), to understand what is most important to patients and their caregivers about the care they receive. This helps us make changes or improvements for you and other patients across Ontario.

How do I get started?
Each hospital is different, and you may be able to answer Your Voice Matters in different ways:
- At a kiosk in your cancer centre,
- On a tablet (for example, iPad), while you wait for your appointment,
- Using a link sent to your email using your personal computer or mobile device,
