Client satisfaction with PMTCT services is relatively high. Receiving the service from a hospital, no formal education or only primary education, gestational age above first trimester, getting pre- and post-HIV test counseling from the same provider, and waiting time ≤15 minutes to receive services were factors associated with client satisfaction. A greater number of skilled PMTCT-service providers would improve service quality and hasten its delivery. Furthermore, providing mentoring and supportive supervision of health centers with PMTCT programs and keeping the same provider in posttest counseling is also mandatory.
