The topic is of contemporary relevance as health-care firms are reengineering their competencies to deliver personalized health services to for unmatched experience to develop long-term relationships with patients.Methods: Responses from 280 patients about service quality attributes of doctors, wellness perceptions, and their satisfaction are collected using a structured questionnaire. An exploratory factor analysis was performed using SPSS. 20 to identify significant dimensions of doctor’s service quality. The theoretical model developed with these dimensions, wellness perceptions, and patient satisfaction was estimated using partial least square-based structural equation modeling approach to test hypotheses about linkages among these constructs.Results: The dimension structure of doctor’s service quality contained constructs such as “price affordability of medicines,” “quality of diagnosis,” “interaction quality of doctor,” “appropriateness of tests prescribed,” and “quality of usage prescriptions.” These service quality dimensions of doctor significantly develop wellness perceptions and satisfaction among patients. Wellness perceptions act as a mediator in satisfaction development.Conclusions: Patient satisfaction and wellness perceptions are of primary importance in improving service quality in health care and to remain competitive.

Method analisis of this research is analisis path with software PLS. The results showed that the quality of service has no significant effect on loyalty, it means that service quality as exogenous variable requires intervening role (variable of satisfaction). Visitor satisfaction at Ciater Spa Resort has a significant effect on visitor loyalty. In addition, the relationship between the two research variables are positive, the increasing customer satisfaction will increase also loyalty, otherwise the decrease in visitor satisfaction will have an impact on the decrease in visitor loyalty. These findings have matched customer loyalty theory in marketing books. So that verifikatif research has been done successfully to verify the theory of loyalty in general. This article at once confirms a model of service theory as well as its relationship with satisfaction and loyalty, while minimizing the possibility of false loyalty so that this model can be used in the implementation of service management.Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh kualitas pelayanan terhadap kepuasan dan loyalitas wisatawan di Ciater Spa Resort. Penelitian ini berjenis deskriptif-verifikatif. Metode analisis yang digunakan adalah analisis jalur dengan alat bantu sofware Partial Least Square (PLS). Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa Kualitas pelayanan di Ciater Spa Resort tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap loyalitas, hal ini berarti bahwa kualitas pelayanan sebagai variabel eksogen membutuhkan peran intervening (variabel kepuasan). Sedangkan, kepuasan pengunjung di Ciater Spa Resort berpengaruh signifikan terhadap loyalitas pengunjung. Selain itu hubungan diantara kedua variabel penelitian tersebut adalah positif, maka semakin meningkatnya kepuasan pengunjung akan semakin meningkat pula loyalitasnya, sebaliknya semakin menurunya kepuasan pengunjung akan berdampak terhadap semakin menurunnya loyalitas pengunjung. Penemuan ini telah sesuai teori loyalitas pelanggan dalam buku-buku pemasaran. Sehingga penelitian verifikatif yang telah dilakukan berhasil memverivikasi teori loyalitas secara umum. Artikel ini sekaligus menegaskan sebuah model teori pelayanan serta hubunganya dengan kepuasan dan loyalitas, sekaligus mampu meminimalisir adanya kemungkinan loyalitas semu sehingga model ini dapat dipakai dalam implementasi manajemen pelayanan.
