you can take any bus from the university (5A, 51, 1 King) - going towards downtown and get off @ Main and Dundurn. there is a pretty big plaza there with a Fortinos, McDonalds etc. and the clinic is in that plaza.

Any stop along Main street will work, or you can stand at one of the ones on campus. A lot of different buses go that way, so most stops near campus will work.

Just make sure that you're getting a bus headed East, the ones headed West take you away from where you want to go.

I feel that the walk-in clinic should be open on weekends during the school year since there are so many students in residence... But they aren't >.> Although Main and Dundurn isn't that far so it's not that bad (plus "free" HSR).

I use the one attached to the pharmacy near the grocery store and McDonalds on the Eastbound bus from McMaster.. but expect a reaaaaaallly long wait if you just drop-in, depending on the hour.

There is also a clinic in the basement of the student centre...it's not walk-in, but I've made an appointment and was able to be seen a couple of hours after making it (I called at 8:30 and got a 10:30 appt), so it's not that bad.

It's closed on weekends though which, as I mentioned above, doesn't make sense during the school year.

They have a section somewhere on the Mac website with their phone numbers and hours and stuff...basically go to the Underground and keep walking straight, past the Off-Campus Housing place. It's at the end of the hallway.

Not correct. It's not affiliated with the MSU: it is a service offered by the university.
