Patient Communication

OhMD, Inc.

About this app

Communication in healthcare is a challenge. Doctors still carry around pagers and play phone tag with each other. Patients rarely like calling their doctors and practices, leaving a voicemail, and waiting for a call back.

We set out to simplify communication for healthcare by making it as easy as texting.

We are a simple healthcare communication platform that allows doctors to securely text message with other healthcare professionals, doctors, patients and care teams.

We makes communication between patients and their care teams as easy as sending and receiving a text message. It is a free app for all patients to use with their doctors and care teams in participating practices and hospitals.

Ratings and reviews

Handy to be able to talk with your provider through the app, I did have issues with it loading. Then I had trouble finding how to reset the password as my email account showed as not found. Which was strange since that was the email address that had notifications for the app and when I had messages. I did find a work around by creating a new account with all the same info. So if you're not able to reset the password or see messages just start a new account!

In general: Slow, won't load messages, won't send without finagling. Specifically: OhMD deleted my chats and can't find my provider despite a conversation that's lasted weeks. I'm missing critical information. This is an important app in theory but in practice this is more frustrating than it's worth. Unless something changes FAST, talk to your provider about literally any other app. EDIT: Logging out/in fixed. Tech support is good. Still really darn slow, but.

I can no longer log in since the update. I tried sending a reset Password link but it just brings me to the app store. It does not allow me to update my password. ****update 2-26-23****** After being taken to the app store, I happened to click on the "open " button which in turn took me to the reset password screen. I was able to reset the password. I will say that this approach is not very intuitive or user friendly. If I wouldn't have happened to click on "open", I wouldn't have known.
