Question:
Is it okay if synovial fluid's leaking out?

NO

Is it okay to press the elbow 3 or 4 times a day, to "leak it" into a
cloth or tissue?

Ask your doctor!

Or should I call the referring physican and ask her to ask the hospital if
the surgery consult can be speeded up?

No, you should call the referring physician and ask her what to do after you tell her what you told us.

Is it a bad thing if (elbow) synovial fluid leaks out?

I suspect that it is fluid that is not from the joint. But ask your doctor.
