About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the Alivio Medical Center lights flickered on, a young boy walking home from school would often stop and peer through the windows. One evening, he noticed something peculiar—a small dog, wagging its tail furiously, darted out of an open door and ran straight towards him. The boy bent down curiously, but the little dog suddenly stopped, turned around, and raced back inside. Startled, the boy looked up and saw an older gentleman in scrubs waving cheerfully from one of the rooms. ‘Just my new pet,’ the man called out with a smile. The boy giggled and continued his way home, wondering if maybe Alivio Clinic had more unusual patients than he’d thought.

2. In the early morning hours, as the Alivio Medical Center doors quietly opened, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar. The hallway smelled like freshly baked cookies, wafting from an empty room. Curious, he peeked inside and saw nothing but a small note on the desk: 'Sorry for the confusion—we’re just testing our new air freshener!' Turns out, it was a neighbor’s prank, leaving everyone laughing and shaking their heads.

3. Late one afternoon, an elderly neighbor was pushing her wheelchair through the parking lot when she noticed something strange. The normally quiet hallway inside the Alivio Medical Center seemed unusually busy—with no patients or staff in sight. Curious, she peered around the corner and saw only a delivery driver frantically trying to deliver a package labeled ‘Confidential’. Turning back to her neighbor, they both laughed, realizing it was just another day at the mysterious Alivio Medical Center.

4. At closing time, a delivery driver whispered to himself, ‘I’ll never forget how that nurse waved goodbye from the window.’ Everyone knew she’d been gone for years. Finally, an old neighbor stopped by and asked, ‘Did you see that guy wave?’ The delivery driver shrugged, ‘Nope, but I’m pretty sure he saw her waving back!’
