Support in Your Pocket
Patient Journey App
The Patient Journey App puts clear, reliable information about your diagnosis and treatment in the palm of your hand. It was designed by the consultants and nurses at Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells NHS Trust and funded by Breast Cancer Kent, with content developed alongside Dr Burcombe.
The app is free to download. Search for “Patient Journey” on the App Store or Google Play, then choose Breast Cancer Kent to get started.

Push notifications and reminders help you keep track of upcoming appointments and the next steps in your care.
Contact Your Team
