About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A regular dropped in for his routine check-up one morning and noticed something peculiar on the reception desk—a small, mysterious box wrapped in brown paper with no label or note attached. Curious, he picked it up and found inside a strange contraption—an old-fashioned toothbrush holder filled with mints. The receptionist smiled sheepishly, explaining that it was a thank-you gift from a local delivery driver who’d recently had his teeth cleaned there. Everyone laughed, realizing the mystery was solved—and so was everyone’s breath that day.

2. While waiting for her cleaning appointment, a regular overheard an unusual exchange between the receptionist and a new delivery driver: ‘You sure you brought the right stuff today?’ asked the receptionist with a smile. The driver shrugged, grinning back, ‘Absolutely—just like last week!’ Finally, the receptionist leaned closer and whispered, ‘Actually, it’s not teeth we’re cleaning today—it’s our new office fish tank!’ The driver burst out laughing, realizing his mistake, but everyone in the waiting room had already heard—and now they were all smiling too.

3. At closing time, a delivery driver approached the Candid sign and read aloud: ‘Hours of Operation: Monday through Friday, except when we feel like seeing you.’ The next day, an elderly neighbor stopped by and asked curiously, 'Is it true that they only see you when they feel like it?' With a twinkle in his eye, the receptionist replied, 'Well, sir, that's what makes Candid so special—you never know when they'll pop up!'

4. After hours, when the last patient had left, a neighbor passing by heard strange noises coming from inside Candid. Curious, they peered through the window and saw a dentist vigorously polishing not teeth, but the reception desk. Curious, they knocked on the door, only to hear the dentist shout, ‘Just one more minute!’ Finally opening up, he sheepishly explained, ‘I was just trying to make our reception area as bright and polished as those perfect smiles I see every day.’ The neighbor nodded knowingly and said, ‘Next time, maybe try shining a lamp instead?’
