Here early? Windsor has you covered.
Our patients come to us from both sides of the border, and plenty of them arrive with time to spare — or bring someone along who'll be waiting while we work. This page is for that time. Everything here is close to the clinic: somewhere to sit with a coffee, somewhere to eat well, somewhere to walk by the river.
