A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to MedStar Health Urgent Care with an unusual package. As he approached the entrance, his dog suddenly began barking frantically, pointing towards the building's shadowy corner. Curious, the driver peered around the corner and saw nothing but a stray cat staring back at him. He laughed, patted his dog’s head, and said, ‘Guess your senses are just as rusty as mine.’ They both walked inside, where a friendly nurse asked if they needed any help—with or without mysterious packages!’

2. At midnight, a delivery driver pulled up to MedStar Health Urgent Care and heard an unusual announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention all patients—your wait time has been reduced to infinity due to extreme staff shortage.’ The delivery driver looked around nervously but decided to trust the message. As he waited in what felt like no time at all, a friendly nurse approached him with a smile and said, 'Welcome to our late-night party! Just one patient left before you.' The driver relaxed, thinking his luck had finally turned—and then he saw the queue of one very impatient senior citizen.

3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to MedStar Health Urgent Care and noticed an unusual commotion inside. A small dog, barking frantically, darted out of the emergency room entrance, its tail between its legs. Curious, the delivery driver approached the receptionist, who shrugged and said it was just ‘another late-night adventure.’ Turns out, the little pooch had mistakenly been brought in for a routine checkup by a neighbor who thought it needed stitches—when all it really wanted was some kibble and a walk. The next morning, the same neighbor returned with a bag of treats, apologizing profusely while everyone laughed.

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to MedStar Health Urgent Care wondering if they were open for flu shots. ‘We’re only here for urgent care,’ a gruff voice from the door replied. The delivery driver sheepishly explained his quest for a flu shot. ‘Well, you’re in luck!’ said the nurse with a twinkle. ‘We’ve got just what you need—right next to our emergency room.’
