About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver asked curiously: ‘Why does Dr. Smith always greet me with such a wide smile?’ Everyone shrugged and said they had no idea. Finally, an old lady confided in him, ‘I think I know why he smiles so big every day.’ With a twinkle in her eye, she whispered, ‘He’s just happy his patients never see his face when he talks!’

2. A young nurse was finishing her shift when she noticed something peculiar outside the clinic window. A local florist kept arriving early each morning, placing identical bouquets on the doorstep before anyone else was around. Finally curious, she followed him one day and saw that he was delivering fresh flowers to his own reflection in the clinic’s glass doors! Turned out he’d been dropping off bouquets for himself all along.

3. A curious patient asked one day: 'Why do all the nurses wave to me as I leave?' The doctor leaned forward with a twinkle in his eye and whispered, ‘They’re not waving at you—you’ve just got a really big mole on your back!’ Everyone burst out laughing, including the embarrassed patient who had never noticed it before.

4. One afternoon, an elderly gentleman entered the waiting room and exclaimed, ‘I thought dermatologists only treated skin!’ A young delivery driver overheard him and replied with a straight face, ‘Actually, sir, our dermatologist also treats toenail fungus.’ The old man looked down at his feet, grinned sheepishly, and whispered, ‘No wonder it’s been spreading so fast!’
