Customer Reviews
Good
Good, but I was unable to add a treatment to a date; I could only remove what I entered. I would also like to see an entry for body weight.
Ok app but need a true IPad format
This app is great but I'd like to see a full iPad supported version.
Ok start but needs more
This is a great idea but needs improvements. What kind of cancer are we tracking?
Need ability to add resource websites.
Need ability to add notes to Chemo and medication sections to include dosage and frequency taken. Also add ability to attach Drug / FDA info website to the medication.
Also need a treatment section, such as radiation, frequency, schedule, what is being treated.
Also need section to list dietary supplements such as vitamins, calcium, etc. as these are often included due to special dietary needs of cancer patients. Name of supplement plus dosage, etc.
Also add section for medical team to include contact info. This should have primary Oncologists plus any specialists that are being engaged. Example - I have a rare Thyroid cancer (Medullary Thyroid Cancer) and need to engage specialists as my Oncologist does not specialize in this type of cancer. Specialist may have knowledge of new clinical trials or new drugs due to be approved.
Clinical trials section may also be nice - add notes, relevant websites, sponsors, phase number, etc.
Should also push info easily from iPad to iPhone.
