Appointments: urgent from 8am, routine requests later
Urgent appointment for today or tomorrow
If you believe you need an urgent appointment on a weekday, Ashlea asks patients to phone from 8:00am or attend reception. The team asks what you need help with and uses that information to decide which clinician and response are most suitable.
Where clinically appropriate, the practice says urgent patients may be offered an appointment on the same working day or the next day. If immediate hospital assessment is needed, the practice may direct you there instead.
Routine appointment
The current appointment page describes routine requests as appointments generally in the 3–5 week range. You can request one using the online form, by phone, at reception, or through NHS App where the specific appointment or screening task is available.
Consultation format
Depending on the request, Ashlea may offer:
- a face-to-face appointment;
- a telephone consultation;
- a video consultation;
- communication by text or email.
Tell the practice if you would prefer a particular health professional, need an interpreter or have another communication/access requirement. Asking for one specific clinician can mean a longer wait if that person is fully booked or away.
Cancel as soon as possible
You can cancel using the link in your appointment confirmation, the online cancellation form, NHS App/NHS account or the relevant surgery telephone.
Accurx online requests: what is actually current?
Ashlea uses Accurx for digital medical and administrative contact. The system can be reached through the practice website and, for supported requests, through NHS App/NHS account.
This reduces the risk of using an old or bookmarked third-party form.
Ashlea specifically says not to submit a medical problem through the “Admin Query” form.
The team uses your information to decide how quickly you need help, who should respond and whether a face-to-face appointment is appropriate.
The practice says medical online requests are triaged on the day; its privacy information gives a three-working-day response period for administrative queries.
The May 2026 request-form update can redirect you before a GP appointment
Ashlea says its updated online GP request form may suggest another NHS service capable of giving direct advice or treatment. That can include a more appropriate local route rather than automatically creating a GP appointment.
What happens after Ashlea reviews your request?
GP or nurse care
The practice can arrange the most suitable available doctor, nurse or other healthcare professional based on the information supplied.
Same-day or next-day care
Urgent requests may be accommodated the same working day or following day where clinically appropriate.
Digital response
Some requests can be resolved by telephone, video, secure text or email rather than an in-person consultation.
Another NHS service
The online request system may suggest pharmacy, self-referral or another NHS service when that route is more appropriate.
Evening and weekend GP appointments through Dorking Healthcare
Ashlea says additional GP appointments are available during evenings and weekends through its GP federation, Dorking Healthcare (DHC).
These are separate from the normal Monday–Friday Ashlea opening hours. Request an extended-access appointment by contacting Gilbert House or Linden House.
Home visits: request before 11am where possible
If you are housebound and need an appointment, Ashlea says it will arrange a home visit where appropriate. Phone your surgery before 11:00am where possible.
The practice says it will telephone first to understand what you need before the visit is arranged.
Repeat prescriptions: NHS App, online form or paper request
Ashlea’s current prescription page recommends NHS App/NHS account as the easiest route for repeat medication.
| Prescription route | Current Ashlea guidance |
|---|---|
| NHS App / NHS account | Select medicines already authorised on your repeat list and submit the request electronically. |
| Practice repeat form | Use Ashlea’s repeat-prescription request form. |
| Paper request | Bring the paper request to the surgery while it is open. |
| Telephone | Not accepted for routine repeat prescription orders. |
| Not accepted for routine repeat prescription orders. | |
| Collection | Ashlea says prescriptions can usually be collected from the nominated pharmacy 4 working days after ordering. |
Repeat dispensing for stable long-term medication
Ashlea says suitable patients can receive a batch covering six or twelve months of long-term medication through the pharmacy rather than requesting every issue individually. The GP still reviews the medicine at least annually.
Test results: NHS App, online form or contact after 2pm
Ashlea publishes unusually clear result instructions. Once a doctor has reviewed your result, you can use three main routes.
Reviewed results may be available in your GP health record.
The practice says it will respond to an online test-result request within 5 working days.
Ashlea asks patients using reception for results to make contact after 2pm.
Register with Ashlea Medical Practice
The current registration page says Ashlea Medical Practice is accepting new patients. Patients within the catchment can register with either Gilbert House or Linden House.
Use the practice catchment checker before completing the registration form.
Ashlea provides separate online registration routes for Linden House and Gilbert House.
The practice describes online registration as taking around 10 minutes.
Call the relevant surgery or visit reception during opening hours.
Useful Ashlea services that may need a different route
Cervical screening
Eligible patients aged 25–64 are invited under the national programme. Ashlea says you can book once invited and do not need to wait for another invitation if you missed your previous screening.
Travel vaccination
Ashlea asks patients to request travel advice at least 8 weeks before departure, because some vaccination courses need several doses or time to develop immunity.

If Ashlea has referred you for specialist care, you can check supported referral information through NHS App/NHS account or contact the surgery.
Pharmacy First
The practice actively directs patients to pharmacies for suitable minor illnesses that may not need a GP appointment.
