Patient Gateway 12+

I don’t know how I lived without my gateway before this. I use it all the time to check on my test results, request prescription refills, make appointments, read letters from my providers, ask questions when I have them, etc…… there’s so much more I can’t even think of. Everything you need is on this app! They’ve literally thought of everything! It has all your upcoming and past appointments listed and organized so you can see what you have planned or you can read past notes from previous appointments. It also gives you detailed info and instructions for your appointments along with calendar reminders so you can prepare for them and make it there!

This app was amazing and gave me quick access to my medical information whenever it was needed. Not having to know my password thanks to fingerprint was very very helpful for someone who has memory problems.

Sadly it seems like my phone is no longer supported with the newest update, rendering this app useless to me now. I relied too much on this app to help me live day to day and keep in contact with my health care providers and reach my health information and updated medications. Now I feel lost and even more confused. I feel stupid for being stuck in a loop for so long of trying to log in, being redirected to a new version, having my phone tell me it is updated to the best of its abilities and to retry opening the app then trying to log in again and being redirected to the store to update then being told it's updated and to open the app then log in using my fingerprint only to be redirected.

Thank you for this app and thank you for taking the time to read this. It used to make my life much easier to manage

With this app, I can easily see my medical records. I also can see most of what the doctors see. I see all my (recent from when my doctor started recording to MyChart,) doctor visit notes, medication and test results. The test result includes the ability to see the test data including X-Rays, sonogram, etc.

It is also useful if you wanted to review your medical records with a third party also for second opinion, or you want to see your relative’s condition. The patient often does not understand or remembers the details.

One note, the data is only as good as what your doctor and medical team is willing to enter the data to MyChart. It has been getting better over the years. How deep you want to review the data is up to the user desire and understanding. The weakest part for me is messaging the doctor’s. Not all doctors responds promptly.

I use the iPad App and it is nicer than using the web page, hopefully it is more secure using FaceID to log in.
