About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Pediatric Associates with an urgent package. As he approached the door, he noticed something odd—an old stethoscope hanging from the handle seemed to be moving on its own. Curious, he picked it up, and as soon as he did, the stethoscope started humming softly. Inside, he heard a tiny voice whispering, ‘Take me home!’ Turns out, it was just an overactive imagination—and maybe a little too much Halloween candy. The next morning, everyone had a good laugh.

2. In the quiet hallway of Pediatric Associates, a small dog appeared out of nowhere, bounding towards the waiting room doors and barking excitedly. Nurses looked on curiously as the curious canine seemed to know exactly where it was going. As everyone watched in amazement, the little dog trotted right up to an unfamiliar man sitting in the corner, who smiled warmly and scratched its head. Turns out he was just a delivery driver there for vaccines. The dog had recognized him from previous visits, earning himself a nickname around the office: ‘Dog Whisperer’.

3. In the middle of the night, a nurse on duty heard a strange voice over the intercom: ‘Pediatric Associates, your baby is crying for ice cream.’ Curious, she checked the monitor and saw nothing but blank screens. Then, from another floor, came a faint cry: 'Mom, can I get some ice cream too?' The nurse laughed, realizing it was just a regular kid playing pranks.

4. In the early hours of morning, a sleep-deprived doctor whispered to herself, ‘I thought I locked that door.’ When she turned around, there stood a tiny teddy bear in the empty examination room. She picked up the bear and said, ‘Who left you here?’ Just then, an exhausted nurse appeared and explained, ‘Oh, it’s just our new receptionist’s kid—she brought him in for his first check-up today.’ The doctor smiled, relieved but amused, realizing the little guy had simply tagged along for her first visit.
