About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At ARA, a neighborhood doctor’s office, every afternoon around three, something peculiar happened. The receptionist noticed that whenever a certain delivery driver arrived with packages, her small dog would start barking wildly and dashing under the desk—even though the driver never spoke to the animal. One day, the receptionist followed the little dog discreetly and saw him peeking out from beneath the desk as if signaling someone hidden inside. Turns out, it was just an old neighbor who used to work there years ago—and he’d left his favorite candy behind for the dog! Ever since then, whenever the delivery guy arrives, everyone in the waiting room gets a surprise treat.
2. At ARA, a neighborhood doctor’s office, every morning after breakfast, a delivery driver would mysteriously leave his truck unlocked. No one knew why until one day, a note appeared on the windshield: ‘Please return by 9 am sharp or your lunch will be cold!’ From then on, everyone in town started bringing their own lunches—just in case. The delivery guy never missed another deadline, and ARA became known for its quirky sense of humor. Even today, if you visit early enough, you might catch someone leaving an empty box on a car’s windshield with a smiley face drawn on it.
3. At ARA, a neighborhood doctor's office, every Wednesday afternoon, an elderly gentleman would arrive precisely at two-thirty and exclaim, 'Finally, it's almost three!' Nobody knew why he was so eager for that moment. One day, a young delivery driver asked curiously, ‘Why do you always say “finally” when it’s almost three?’ The old man smiled mysteriously and whispered, ‘Because at exactly three o’clock, my wife calls from across town to remind me I’m still alive.’ Everyone in the waiting room burst out laughing, including the doctor.
4. At ARA, a neighborhood doctor’s office, one day a nurse exclaimed, ‘I’ve never seen anything like it!’ Every Monday at precisely noon, a mysterious package arrived with no return address. Curious, they opened it—inside was just a small box of donuts and a note scribbled in pencil: ‘For the busy docs, from your friendly neighborhood delivery guy.’ Everyone laughed, realizing that ARA had gained an unexpected—and delicious—new patient.
