About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the quiet neighborhood of Maplewood, a regular would ask every pediatrician he met: ‘Do you ever see babies with stripes on their faces?’ The doctors always laughed it off, but one day, while waiting for his child’s appointment, he noticed something odd. Finally, during his fifth visit, the doctor leaned in and whispered, ‘I’ve seen two other parents asking about striped babies today.’ They all shared a laugh, realizing that maybe it was just another Maplewood urban legend—spread by a friendly delivery driver or an imaginative neighbor.

2. In the waiting room of Town & Country Pediatrics, a young nurse noticed something peculiar. Every Wednesday afternoon, an anonymous delivery driver would arrive with a mysterious package. He’d hand it to the receptionist without saying a word and leave just as quickly. One day, the delivery driver arrived carrying not one but three packages—all wrapped in identical brown paper. The receptionist asked him curiously why there were so many, but he merely shrugged and said, 'Just delivering for a neighbor.' As he left, everyone in the waiting room burst out laughing, realizing that maybe the whole town was involved in this little mystery.

3. In the parking lot of Town & Country Pediatrics, a delivery driver found an unusual package marked ‘For Dr. Smith’s Office.’ Curious neighbors gathered around, wondering what could be inside, but no one dared open it. Finally, when nobody could resist any longer, someone gently pried open the box—and out popped a live parrot, squawking and flapping its wings. The delivery driver looked at each other sheepishly, realizing they’d mistakenly delivered a pet store bird instead of medical supplies. A regular pediatrician chuckled, remarking, 'At least now we know who’ll keep our patients entertained!'

4. In the examining room of Town & Country Pediatrics, a curious toddler pointed excitedly at the ceiling and whispered, ‘Mommy, look! Is that a pony up there?’ The doctor looked up quizzically and replied, 'No, sweetie, that's just our ceiling tiles.' The mom laughed softly as she explained, 'It's okay, honey—maybe next time we'll see an actual pony!' And so, with a giggle, they continued their visit.
