About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unusually quiet morning in College Road Surgery when a delivery driver arrived with a peculiar package. The nurse on duty glanced curiously at the oversized box marked ‘Top Secret’ before it vanished into Dr. Smith’s office. After several minutes, Dr. Smith emerged, grinning sheepishly and holding a small package of cookies. 'Just some thank-you from our new supplier,' he explained, handing them to the nurse. The whole incident became known around town as 'the mysterious cookie delivery', and ever since, whenever someone needed a smile, they’d say, “I could use a visit to College Road Surgery!”

2. In the wee hours of one foggy night, a delivery driver pulled up outside College Road Surgery and muttered under his breath, ‘I hope they’re open—my package is late.’ Just as he was about to knock, an old man in a tweed jacket opened the door and asked, 'Can I help you, son?' The delivery guy replied sheepishly, 'I'm here for a package.' With a twinkle in his eye, the doctor said, 'We don't deliver packages, but if you're sick or lost, come on in!' And so, our intrepid courier spent the rest of the night sipping tea and listening to stories from the good folks at College Road Surgery.

3. In the early hours of a Sunday morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside College Road Surgery. As he stepped out, a small dog emerged from under the car, wagging its tail and carrying something unusual in its mouth. As the driver bent down to take a closer look, the little dog dropped what turned out to be an old prescription bottle filled with brightly colored candies. Turns out, it was a neighborhood kid’s prank—someone had swapped the pills for sweets as a joke on the doctor. The whole town got a good laugh out of it that day.

4. In the middle of a routine day at College Road Surgery, a nurse overheard a strange announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention please—your prescription has arrived from Mars!’ The nurse looked puzzled but shrugged it off until she saw Dr. Smith walking towards her with a perplexed expression and a small package wrapped in brown paper. 'I just received an unusual delivery,' he said, 'addressed to you.' The package contained a single pill labeled “Interplanetary Antibiotic,” along with a note reading “For your next patient.” The whole office burst into laughter when they realized it was probably meant for someone else’s prescription.
