Probably not even a data breach. A user's friend/relative who is a lawyer or works in health care or know someone who does will see the app and inmediately begin proceedings for a lawsuit. Once it is under the eye of the state, OP will be in big legal trouble. Building apps is cool but any app that uses critical stuff like real world infrastructure or personal data needs careful treading
Kate is a citizen. She is 60 years old and the family lives away. She gets visited daily by a care worker. Kate downloads the app and enters her data. Kate shares her data with the care worker so it can be managed for things like appointments and medication. The manager of the care worker sees the app, checks that the site has no policy whatsoever. Shares the name of the app with the law department. Law department contacts the local health authority regarding the app legality. The local health authority begins proceedings against the developer. Developer loses money

Why? What's in it for them?
I'm not saying this can't happen, I'm just not sure I understand why you think it's so likely to happen.
