Opening Times
Other clinical departments are open during normal office hours:
Ashford Walk-in Centre
Ashford Hospital no longer provides a full emergency service for seriously ill or injured patients.
We have a new Walk-in Centre at Ashford Hospital that is open seven days a week, 24 hours a day. The service deals with minor injuries and ailments.
There is a nurse-led walk in service between 10:00 and 22:00 and the Primary Care Thamesdoc Service from 22:00 to 10:00.
The walk-in centre is a nurse led service run by autonomous nurse practitioners. They can see, treat and discharge minor injuries and minor ailments. The Thamesdoc services is an out of hour’s service provided by the PCT and is GP led. Patients can make an appointment by calling their health centre and out of hour’s service or can call at Ashford and see the GP without an appointment.
Patients who are seriously ill or injured, and all children under 2 years, should go direct to St. Peter’s Hospital, Chertsey or another hospital providing full Accident and Emergency services.
