About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. A delivery driver pulled up outside Wake Family Medicine one morning and exclaimed, ‘This place is haunted!’ Ever since then, employees claim they hear strange whispers late at night. One evening a neighbor knocked on the door and asked if anyone had heard those eerie whispers. Turns out it was just her dog, who thought he saw ghosts in the hallway mirror. Since then, everyone jokes that Wake Family Medicine has more spirits than patients!
2. One day, a delivery driver pulled up outside Wake Family Medicine and announced over the intercom: 'Attention patients—your doctor is running late because he’s stuck in traffic behind an old lady who won’t stop waving at every mailbox!' Finally, after what seemed like forever, the doctor burst through the door, panting but smiling. ‘Sorry everyone,’ he said, ‘I had to stop for directions from a friendly old lady—and she insisted on showing me her entire collection of garden gnomes.’ The waiting room erupted into laughter as the story ended with a warm feeling that even medicine couldn’t always provide.
3. One foggy night, a neighbor walking their dog heard an odd humming sound coming from Wake Family Medicine. Curious, they peered through the window and saw nothing but an empty hallway, yet the noise persisted. Suddenly, a sleepy doctor poked his head out of one of the rooms and asked, ‘What’s that commotion? I can hear it too!’ Turns out, it was just an old refrigerator in the basement humming away like a contented bear. The neighbor laughed it off as they left, muttering something about never walking their dog again on such foggy nights.
4. One morning, as a nurse was locking up early, she heard a voice from inside the empty waiting room. ‘Excuse me,’ it said, ‘do you know where I can get some aspirin?’ The nurse, thinking it must be someone lost or confused, opened the door cautiously. A sleepy-eyed doctor emerged from behind the counter, rubbing his eyes and mumbling something about an overnight shift. 'Oh,' he yawned, 'I thought that was me.'
