A few stories people tell about this place
1. In the late hours of one night, a delivery driver pulled up to the UAB Civitan-Sparks Center and muttered under his breath, ‘I’ve never seen so many boxes labeled “biohazard”.’ As he approached the loading dock, a gruff voice called out from inside: 'Hey, you got the right boxes?' A sleepy nurse appeared in the doorway, holding a clipboard. The driver shrugged and replied, 'Just following the manifest.' She nodded and waved him through with a smile, muttering something about 'another normal day at the biohazard clinic'.
2. In the early morning, a nurse on her rounds noticed something peculiar in the waiting area. A shopping cart had mysteriously appeared overnight, filled with items no patient would ever request—potted plants, board games, and a jar of pickled eggs.

The delivery guy burst out laughing when he realized they were just enjoying each other’s company, totally oblivious to him. "What a place,” he thought, “where even patients get to dance!”
4. Late one evening, a delivery driver parked his truck near the entrance and walked into the dimly lit hallway. Suddenly, he heard an odd humming sound coming from behind the reception desk. Peering around cautiously, he saw a shadowy figure humming softly to itself while typing away at the computer. Curious, the delivery driver approached closer. The figure turned out to be just an old nurse dozing off after a long shift, still tapping absentmindedly on her keyboard. With a gentle smile, she said, 'I was trying to enter Mr. Johnson's prescription...'
