I just had cancer surgery two weeks ago and am on pins and needles wanting to know if the cancer was contained and what my prognosis is going to be. I get an email saying I have a new test result and immediately go to the app. The app lists the path report but doesn’t give the result and says to go to the website. The website does not have it and doesn’t even list multiple lab results that are on the app! Very heartbreaking for the top cancer hospital to drop the ball on having such a crummy app.
I’m a tech savvy stage 4 cancer patient and I throughly dislike your app

I’m a Stage 4 cancer patient. I don’t have time to waste on your app that doesn’t function properly. I can’t even see the messages I’ve sent my providers, for starters. Also, I’m not interested in going to a completely separate app for what I need to do. I might as well use the full website. I’ll be deleting both app off of all of my devices. For the #1 cancer hospital in the U.S. I expect a lot more out of your technology.

The day before 5 appointments I checked the app and it had totally changed. We were unable to figure out how to get a list of the appointments, times and locations. It seems that they have switched to a different login system with MyChart. Some type of warning and instructions would have been nice. This is not a nice thing to do to cancer patients and their caregivers.
Excellent...helps navigate a huge complex.

Found the app after being here for two days. The staff are very helpful with directions, but this app is much better. I am so glad it is available.
