When You Can't Access Your Health Information
⚠️ Forgot Password
Cause: You cannot recall your password for the Ampath patient portal or app.
Solution: If you've forgotten your password, look for a 'Forgot password?' or 'Reset password?' link on the login page. Follow the prompts, which typically involve entering your username or associated email address to receive password reset instructions. We know being locked out is stressful, so if automated recovery doesn't work, contact Client Services at 012 678 0800 or submit a support request on ampath.co.za/support-request for immediate assistance.
⚠️ Unable to Register/Verify ID
Cause: The system is not accepting your South African ID number or passport number during registration, or mobile verification is failing.
Solution: Ensure you are entering your South African ID number or valid passport number correctly. Double-check for typos. For mobile verification issues, confirm your mobile number is correctly linked to your Ampath records. If problems persist, reach out to Ampath Client Services directly for registration support at 012 678 0800 or via email at [email protected]. They can help resolve discrepancies with your personal information.
⚠️ Results Not Showing
Cause: Your lab results are not appearing on the portal or app after a recent test.

Wait 48 hours after the lab completes the test for your doctor to review. If results are older than 9 days and still not visible, or if you encounter persistent issues, contact Ampath Client Services at 012 678 0800 or the app support email [email protected].
