About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while a delivery driver was unloading boxes in the parking lot, he heard an odd humming sound coming from inside the clinic's air conditioning unit. Curious but cautious, he didn't investigate further. The next day, another delivery driver noticed a small pigeon pecking at something near the AC unit. Thinking it was just a bird doing its thing, he went on his way. Later that evening, a neighbor reported hearing strange cooing noises coming from the clinic’s roof—apparently, the pigeon had made itself quite at home inside the air conditioner!

2. In the middle of an ordinary afternoon, a nurse noticed something peculiar on the clinic’s intercom: ‘To all patients and staff, please be advised that our waiting room is now officially a no-pet zone… unless your pet is named George Washington.’ A few minutes later, another voice crackled over the intercom: 'And just so everyone knows—George Washington is not allowed either.'

3. At dawn, when most clinics are quiet, a curious shadow started appearing outside Dr. Thompson’s office window. It was just a silhouette, moving methodically between the trees and benches near the entrance. One morning, a delivery driver noticed the shadow and waved cheerfully. ‘Morning, Mr. Silhouette!’ he called out. The shadow stopped for a moment, then continued its routine with a slight nod. Turned out it was just an early jogger who thought this clinic was his personal gym.}

4. In the early hours before dawn, a delivery driver was loading supplies into the clinic's back door. Suddenly, he spotted an old, dusty violin tucked among the medical equipment. Curious, he picked it up and started playing softly. Soon, the sound of violin music filled the quiet street, attracting a neighbor who joined in with his accordion. Before long, other neighbors trickled in, forming an impromptu outdoor concert. The delivery driver smiled, realizing that sometimes even clinics can be hubs for unexpected musical gatherings.
