About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Ronald Zelikow DDS and asked himself aloud, ‘Why does this dental office always smell like cookies?’ Curious, he peeked inside and saw an old man in a lab coat mixing something in a beaker. ‘What’s that?’ asked the driver. The man smiled and replied, ‘Oh, just my secret recipe for cookie-infused toothpaste.’ With a laugh, the delivery guy shook his head and drove off, muttering, ‘Next time I’ll deliver to a bakery!’

2. A curious neighbor wondered aloud one day: ‘Why does Dr. Zelikow always seem to be counting something when he leaves his office?’ Soon enough, word spread around town that Dr. Zelikow was actually tallying how many times people yawned during their check-ups. It turned out he had a secret passion for sleep studies and counted yawns as part of his research. The neighborhood never looked at him quite the same way again—some even started yawning on purpose just to see if he’d notice.

3. In the quiet parking lot of Ronald Zelikow DDS, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar one afternoon. Among the usual boxes and crates, nestled between two cars, sat an old, dusty guitar case. Curious, he opened it, only to discover an ancient ukulele with a handwritten note inside: ‘To Ronnie, thanks for always being there—your friendly neighborhood dentist.’ Turns out, someone had accidentally left it here years ago during a moving van mishap.

4. In the dimly lit hallway of Ronald Zelikow DDS, a delivery driver paused to ask himself: 'Who exactly is that old gentleman in the mirror?' As he turned around, he saw an elderly man with a kind smile and a big white coat. ‘I’m Dr. Zelikow,’ said the man cheerfully. ‘And you must be lost. This isn’t FedEx or UPS—this is just my dental office.’ The delivery driver blushed and explained his mistake. From then on, whenever anyone mistook him for a patient, Dr. Zelikow would wink and say, ‘Welcome to my waiting room!’
