Potomac Primary Care

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver arrived early with a mysterious package. As he walked into Potomac Primary Care, everyone noticed something unusual: the box seemed to follow him around the clinic, leaving a trail of tiny paper cranes behind. As the day went on, more and more paper cranes appeared—each time someone entered or left the building. By afternoon, the entire clinic was covered in these delicate white birds. Finally, an old nurse approached the delivery guy and asked, 'Who’s responsible for this little origami invasion?' To which he replied, grinning sheepishly, 'Oh, it was just my neighbor's idea of a prank!'

2. One day, an elderly gentleman entered the waiting room carrying a large basket filled with fresh flowers. He approached the receptionist and whispered something into her ear, causing her to blush deeply. From that moment on, every patient started noticing strange occurrences around the clinic—odd smells wafting through the air, whispers echoing down empty corridors, and occasional glimpses of someone in a white coat rushing past closed doors. Finally, one afternoon, a delivery driver arrived with a package labeled ‘Special Order.’ As he opened it, everyone saw a giant cake shaped like a stethoscope. Turns out, our flustered old gentleman had been planning a surprise birthday party for his favorite nurse! The whole clinic celebrated that day, complete with whispers of happiness instead of ghostly ones.

3. One foggy morning, a delivery driver arrived early with a large box wrapped in brown paper. As he approached the clinic entrance, he noticed something odd—an old man was whispering into the empty air near the reception desk. The delivery driver cocked his head and saw no one else around. Curious, he asked gently, ‘Excuse me, are you talking to yourself?’ The old man turned slowly, smiled warmly, and replied, ‘No, I’m just waiting for my appointment.’ They both laughed, and from that day on, whenever anyone mentioned Potomac Primary Care, people would smile and say, ‘Oh, that’s where the chatty old guy goes!’

4. A young nurse was preparing for her shift when she noticed something unusual on the office wall. Every afternoon, without fail, a small bird would land outside the window and chirp insistently until it was fed crumbs from one of the patients. One day, an elderly gentleman came in for his check-up. After examining him, the doctor asked if everything else was alright. The old man nodded, then whispered, 'Just wondering, doc—why does that little bird always bring me breadcrumbs?' The nurse giggled as she overheard, knowing full well that the bird had taken quite a fancy to their new patient.
