Beginnings
The clinic started out as Windsor Park Physiotherapy, founded by Roland Lavallee in 1986. Rolly has been a staple in the area and has always served his patients with care, compassion, and an extraordinary knowledge base.
Clinic Purchased
In June of 2019, Derek Purvis and Joe Dyck purchased Windsor Park Physiotherapy from Rolly. Derek and Joe met at physiotherapy school and have been great friends since. After a couple of beers at Earls, it was clear that Windsor Park Physiotherapy had the heart, soul, and reputation that Derek and Joe were looking for in a clinic.
