About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver pulled up to the Cary Medical and Professional Center one morning, only to notice an oddly familiar object in the back of his truck—a pair of old spectacles with a handwritten note attached: ‘To Dr. Smith, best wishes for your next patient.’ The note had clearly been left behind during the previous day’s visit. As he approached the reception desk, the friendly secretary smiled warmly and said, 'Dr. Smith is on lunch break today.' The delivery driver chuckled, thinking, 'Guess I'll just leave these glasses here until he gets back!'

2. A little boy visiting his grandmother's dental clinic noticed something peculiar. Every time he entered through the automatic doors, they would close with an eerie creak, as if someone were whispering 'shhhh'. One day, a delivery driver came in complaining that the doors always seemed to slam on him too. The little boy giggled and whispered back, ‘Shhhh… it’s just trying not to talk while you’re talking!’ Everyone laughed, and from then on, whenever anyone entered or left, they’d softly say “shhh” together—making Cary Medical & Professional Center the friendliest dentist office around.

3. One morning, as a delivery driver approached the Cary Medical and Professional Center, he heard an unusual sound coming from inside—a soft, rhythmic tapping that seemed almost musical. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old dentist, gently tapping on his chair’s armrest in time with some unknown tune. Turns out, it was just him humming along to an old folk song while waiting for patients. The delivery driver smiled, shook his head, and quietly left, wondering if everyone had such charming habits.

4. One day, a delivery driver approached the Cary Medical and Professional Center with a curious package. As he walked in, someone asked him, ‘Do you think that’s a new kind of toothpaste?’ The delivery driver shrugged, opened the box, and found a giant gumball bigger than his head. Everyone burst out laughing—including the dentist who’d ordered it for his granddaughter. That was the day the Cary Medical and Professional Center became famous for its oversized candy deliveries.
