Generative AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude are increasingly being used for health and medical questions, from understanding symptoms to preparing for doctor visits.

Similar surveys in 2025 showed early signs of adoption among both patients and healthcare professionals. This month, we are asking again to see how usage, trust and experience with AI are changing.

This survey contains three multiple-choice questions and takes approximately two minutes to complete. All responses are confidential. Cumulative totals will be reported in the next issue of this newsletter.
