About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, a delivery driver asked the nurse at Sheldon Medical Centre: ‘Do you ever wonder why patients here always seem so cheerful?’ The nurse smiled mysteriously and whispered, 'They're not really patients—just our neighbors who come for free coffee!' The delivery driver shook his head with a laugh, realizing he’d been had.

2. At dusk one day, a little girl visiting her grandmother pointed excitedly and whispered, 'Mommy, look at that dog—it’s talking!' The staff at Sheldon Medical Centre exchanged puzzled glances as they watched an unusual sight indeed. As everyone leaned out the window, trying to catch every word, the dog suddenly yawned and stretched, then trotted off down the street. A nurse shrugged and said, ‘Must be a new patient—never seen him before!’

3. At closing time, an exhausted doctor asked the receptionist: 'Can you believe patients still come here even after hours?' The receptionist yawned and replied, ‘Oh yeah, they never stop coming. Just now a delivery driver dropped off some donuts for the staff—must be our way of saying thanks.’ The doctor smiled wearily, shaking his head. ‘Next time I’ll just open a bakery instead,’ he muttered as they both laughed softly.

4. In the early morning hours, a janitor cleaning the Sheldon Medical Centre noticed something peculiar on the staff kitchen counter—a small, dusty box labeled ‘Emergency Supplies’. Curious, he opened it and found nothing but an old, crumpled note that read: ‘Use only if office plants are thirsty.’ As he laughed, another voice chimed in from behind him—’Hey, I thought you were supposed to water our plants!’ It was none other than Dr. Sheldon himself, who’d been standing there, sipping coffee from his favorite mug emblazoned with the words “World’s Best Doctor.” The janitor sheepishly explained what had happened, earning himself a good-natured scolding and a promise never to open any mysterious boxes again.
