About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while a regular was waiting for his routine cleaning, he heard an unusual sound coming from behind the reception desk. It was like someone tapping their fingers on wood, but much slower and more rhythmic—almost as if it were counting down. Curious, he leaned closer and realized it was just a delivery driver tapping out the time until his lunch break. Everyone laughed, and from then on, whenever there was a lull in the day, they’d join in, creating their own impromptu dental office rhythm section.
2. One day, as a delivery driver pulled up to the clinic's loading dock, he noticed something peculiar. The sound of laughter echoed through the empty parking lot, growing louder with each passing moment. Curious, the delivery driver followed the noise around back and found an old pipe organ in the garden, playing itself with the wind. Turns out, it was just a neighborhood prankster having fun on a quiet afternoon.
3. One afternoon, while a patient was anxiously awaiting their check-up, they heard over the intercom: ‘Attention please—we’ve found a new species of fish in our waiting room aquarium!’ Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be just an old coin stuck to the bottom of the tank. The whole office burst into laughter as the embarrassed staff explained that sometimes dentists also specialize in finding lost objects—even if they’re not teeth!
4. While a patient was being called into Dr. Liptak’s office, someone outside asked curiously: ‘Do dentists ever get cavities?’ Dr. Liptak paused for a moment, then smiled and said with a twinkle in his eye: 'I once had a cavity so bad that I referred myself!' A delivery driver nearby chuckled and remarked, 'Guess he never forgot what it felt like.' The story became a gentle reminder around town that even dentists can use their own services.
