Purpose: To study the reasons influencing the treatment of patients. Material and methods: Anonymous questioning of patients with tuberculosis in number of 584 people being on treatment in antituberculosis hospitals, 92 phthisiopul-monologists and 144 therapists of Volgograd was performed. Results: The conducted research testifies that patients with tuberculosis consider that they observe medical recommendations completely in 76,5% of cases, and the opinion of medical workers was completely opposite, only 4,3% of phthisiopulmonologists and 2,8% of therapists. Most doctors were sure that medical recommendations were carried out by only a half of tuberculosis patients, that was told by 54,4% of phthisiopulmonologists and 31,3% of therapists.
