About Cardinal Clinic

Cardinal Clinic is a leading mental health hospital and have been providing the highest level of care for almost 50 years. The Clinic remains privately owned, allowing decisions to be made in the very best interest of our patients and staff. We do not have NHS contracts so cannot accept NHS patients.  We are recognised by all the major insurance companies and also welcome patients who self fund their treatment.

Each patient is treated as an individual at Cardinal Clinic.  Care plans are tailored to your needs and we fully involve you with the decisions relating to your care.  We have the expertise and experience to treat a wide range of mental health conditions.

We offer a number of routes to treatment and provide care in out-patient, day-patient and in-patient settings.  Our multi-disciplinary team comprises highly qualified consultant psychiatrists, psychologists and therapists and for in-patients, a dedicated 24 hour nursing team.

The Clinic is set in beautiful grounds on the outskirts of Windsor, easily accessible from the M4 and Heathrow Airport. Some  of the hospital is situated in an old building (parts of which date back to 1600’s).  Our patients love the quirky, historic style, we have in places.   The overwhelming sense of community and excellent clinical care all contribute to the outstanding feedback we receive from our patients.

History and Ethos of Cardinal Clinic

Cardinal Clinic was started in 1976 by consultant psychiatrist, Dr Leslie Morrish and his wife, Pat.  Over the last 40 years, the clinic has grown considerably but the same ethos has been maintained.  This is to provide the very best mental healthcare in a environment which supports recovery.
