Sign up to our new patient app
If you have maternity care at Guy’s and St Thomas’, you can now use MyChart, a new app and website. MyChart lets you securely access your health and pregnancy information, see appointment details, and makes it easier to communicate with us.
MyChart will replace our current app, BadgerNotes, so please make sure you sign up. You can still access BadgerNotes after 5 October, but you won't see any new information as we'll use MyChart to update your records.
Download the MyChart app or visit mychart.gstt.nhs.uk to get started.
