Patient Portal

Redesigned patient portal dashboard on desktop and mobile

25 million patients opened the portal and landed on Test Results.

Appointments, meds, billing — all there, none of it findable. Especially on a phone.

Legacy My Health page — Test Results only

This was home.

So I made a real landing page and health overview page.

One dashboard. What matters up top. A clear path to everything else.

My Health Landing – After

The nav had the same hole.

People couldn't find things. Card sorts had no consensus. It had to work on a phone.

Legacy patient portal navigation

Seven links. No small-screen version.

Cut the repeats. Make it respond.

Desktop navigation — dropdown menus
Mobile navigation drawer — account panel and main menu

Same structure on desktop and phone.
