Katılımcılara, araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen HPV enfeksiyonu ve HPV aşısı hakkında bilgi ve yaklaşımları değerlendirmek için hazırlanan bir anket formu uygulanmış ve toplanan veriler analiz edilmiştir.Bulgular: Araştırmaya dahil edilen kadın doğum hekimlerinin yaş ortalaması 28.2 yıl, çocuk-aile hekimlerinin 29.2 yıl olup her iki grupta da kadın cinsiyet ağırlıklıdır. Kadın doğum hekimlerinin %74’ü, çocuk hekimlerinin %71’i aşıyı kendilerine yaptırmayı düşündüğünü ifade etmiştir. Kadın doğum hekimlerinin %85’i, çocuk-aile hekimlerinin %78’i aşıyı önerdiklerini ifade etmişlerdir.Sonuç: Toplumda görülen serviks kanserine bağlı ölümler, çocuklara ve ailelere danışmanlık yapacak pozisyonda olan hekimlerin, HPV enfeksiyonu ve HPVaşısı konusunda bilgi düzeylerinin artırılmasıyla, aşının önerilme oranlarını artırarak önlenebilir.
