My Health at Vanderbilt Reviews

This was the best app ever. I used to be able to search for labs and graph them. Now it’s a piece of junk. I hate it. They ruined an excellent app. All labs and reports are thrown in a lump in one file and half of them aren’t really in there anyway. Messaging a provider doesn’t work well either now... Show more because you can’t reply you have to start a whole new email. No more threads. I want the old app back! I need to be able to graph my labs and also search for specific labs like I used to be able to do. The old app was outstanding. Best I have ever used. This is garbage. I plan to just dump it. Piece of crap now. It’s absolutely useless. Whoever thought of this should be fired.

I scheduled Covid vaccination for my daughters thru MyHealthatVanderbilt . It snowed on the day of the appt and I tried to change it on MyHealthatVanderbilt . But MyHealthatVanderbilt didn’t work. There wasn’t a phone number listed in MyHealthatVanderbilt . We drove to appt but the clinic was clos... Show more ed. I’ve since tried to reschedule but the only places available on MyHealthatVanderbilt are across town. Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to use this technology to send out cancellation notices via phone, text or email. A non specific notice like “Vanderbilt clinics are closed due to weather”. The technology could also be used to send me a message, like when the doctor wants to get test results to me. I do not expect the clinical staff to get out in hazardous conditions but if they make the effort to go to work then what would they expect from me?

Except for the atrocious name, this app has great potential. Unfortunately, it will probably always stay at that place…having great potential but not living up to it. An example is the doctors’ reports area. Doctors’ reports are not really doctors’ reports, they are a regurgitation of things like... Show more your known illnesses and the meds you’re on. No real doctors’ notes. My biggest complaint, though, is that the system is always down. Almost every time I really need it, it never fails. It’s down. If they cannot find a more robust system, then they need to just trash the whole idea. I would rather not have it and not depend on it then depend on it and it not be there, which is what is happening now.

I got my Covid vaccines months ago through Metro Health, but I can’t disable the “Get Your Covid Vaccine” reminders in MyHealthatVanderbilt. I’m getting annoyed to have to click past them, but can’t find a way to indicate via MyHealthatVanderbilt that I’ve already been vaccinated. There is no in-... Show more app support, or at least any that I can find after clicking around and following support links that take me outside MyHealthatVanderbilt . When I last went to Vanderbilt, I discussed this with the receptionist who has access to my records, but he also didn’t know how to update my record to show that I got the vaccine outside the Vanderbilt system. This is an annoying flaw. Please address this. Thanks.

MyHealthatVanderbilt needs a few tweaks….I like the to-do list but there are some tweaks that need to be done. 1. The question about “paperless “ does not go away. There should be a yes or no on that question. 2. I have been asked about my contact info 2-3 times this year, I have confirmed it... Show more but this question remains on my to-do list. This question should only be on the account info and we change it when there is a change. 3. I completed my pre-visit questionnaire prior to my appointment with Dr Abbate, when I got to the office, the nurse asked me all the questions again… Why did I spend my time doing this prior to my visit? Don’t waste your staffs time and don’t waste your clients time. . Also, some of the questions she asked me that weren’t on the pre visit questionnaire should have been (how do I learn best, visual or hearing. Also what type of exercise do I do and how often. These questions should be on the pre visit ).

My chart at Vandy is already linked to my current provider and yet, when I went into the e-check in process, I had to manually add all my medications. Why couldn’t those be seen and recorded in Vandy’s system.

I also have all end of life documents uploaded there as well. Must I repeat that ... Show more process myself? Or can you obtain them from the linked information.

Doesn’t make much sense to me as it should be a convenience to me, and it’s proving not to be so.

4/5stars for issues to be addressed
1.should have direct link to my Health messaging not phone only.
2. Should have pt information link for correcting charting errors
3. Needs place for pt note such as questions for upcoming appointments
4. Need to know by Dept who initially reads m... Show more essage to dr. Is it triaged to fellow RN team or my drs RN Who is my drs rn ?
5 would be great to have 2 way link to billing no just pay bill
6. The my health system is very good but need way for indiv response- how can I print lab results in graph w trend showing norms
7 lab should not be item by item pulled out. Want old way labs weee shown
8. Vandy needs to address Lack of transparency in clinic staff. Ea Dept should have a dr bio updated often w photo and clinic area of expertise as well as head of Dept. If dr is in research that should be named too. Why is my urology surgery being done by dr who has no oncology training when it is oncology surgery!! Flagrant errors made when any pt would have asked for an oncologist. I have had to many dead drop consults picked up by unqualified staff. And bout known it until errors made!! Pt relations is horrible!!

Works well as-is, but here are a few features that I think would make it even better (may not be realistic but bear with me):

- built-in symptom tracker to help both pts and their medical team better understand what they’re experiencing between messages/appointments (or VUMC should come up w... Show more ith their own symptom tracker with input from pts about features!)

- ability to view rx #’s and request refills within MyHealthatVanderbilt if using a VUMC pharmacy (you can request a new rx from your provider in MyHealthatVanderbilt , but communicating with VUMC pharmacies directly when you need a refill on an existing rx would be helpful)

- ability to view/print/share eyeglass/contact rx from MyHealthatVanderbilt —I actually couldn’t even print my contact rx from the website because the doctor’s name wasn’t listed on it for some reason

If I think of other ideas I will update my review or post a new one. :)

MyHealthatVanderbilt has definitely improved over the last 3 years. I especially like that I can now title my messages as I see fit for the concern. HOWEVER, you guys have to change the reply format.

I’ve been traveling across the country and in between many different states. I have to leave a review to emphasize how much Vanderbilt cares about their patients. They have a great system, no matter if I go by walking-in or with an appointment, everything is very organized and clear. My experience ... Show more in US doctors offices and hospitals elsewhere was usually to wait for a long time without any reason. I always had to wait for a long time before I got my exam results. But here, with Vanderbilt, I got my blood results in the same day with a comprehensive and very advanced app. I can track my history or any appointments or different exams so easy. And the employees are nice and helpful. So far, it is my top one on the list in my experience!

I like that I get a quick response from my doctors without having to wait on a phone call. I also like that my medicines are listed whenever I need the information for a doctor or for my information. I like bein able to see my lab results and doctor summaries. I use the application frequently.

The My Health app is wonderful!!! It helps us so much when we need to get a refill or ask the nurse a question or make or reschedule an appt without having to call, go through an operator, wait on hold for several mins and still not get what or where you were needing to be directed to.

I’m 71 years old and don’t use a lot of apps because they are difficult to learn. This is the hands down best app ever. It’s so easy to use, the information you get as a patient is so good.

I’ve used the Myhealth App for around 3 years now and I find it to be an effective and efficient way to communicate with your entire health care team. I can review lab reports, x-rays or tests and see for myself exactly what my doctors are seeing or reading. So I’m not just told that my vitamin D i...

It allows me to take an active role in my healthcare, helping me to be able to educate myself. Access to my information and the ability to contact my providers for answers or questions helps a lot.

This is the worst app I have ever used. It was never a problem to use until this stupid update... this isn’t but a junk app now. I can’t retrieve any information from my doctors and the test results will not show up anymore because it can’t retrieve the data... It would be reliable just to email my...

MyHealthatVanderbilt used to be more than I ever expected in a medical interface portal.

In times past I could view and save my visits. This was helpful. I keep an electronic file of all health visits, reports, etc. this helps me to feel comfortable about the overall health condition of myself or my husband.

One critical feature is missing - I need to get the contact info for my doctor to add it to a form for a different business. You’d think I could tap on that doctor and all contact info would be there, but no. All you get is 2 links to either send a message or make an appointment.

I’ve seen some bad apps before, but multiple links to nowhere and no compatibility with iPhone SSO and faceID without having to log in 3 separate times, and a PW reset of course because it can’t use the strong pw? Obviously not something you want patients to use, much less like using.

I used to be able to see if a message has been read. It says within 2-3 days response time, but at least I used to see if my messages were even read. I sent one on Jan 17 and can not see if read.

It would be really helpful if patients were able to attach images or documents to messages. It would allow nurses and doctors to see what the patient is dealing with in order to better diagnose what the patient should do. If the ailment is not serious, it would keep the patient from taking an unnee... Show more ded office from a patient that actually needs to be seen.

Also, when viewing lab results, allow users to tap on each score to learn about what the specific category is and why it is important. For example, if a user taps on their “auto neutrophil absolute” score, an info box would come up explaining what that is and what it does for the body.

I have used MyHealthatVanderbilt for several yeats and used almost every function that is available on MyHealthatVanderbilt . Not particularly fond of the lab results format but I will learn it too.
