About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn, when most clinics were still locked tight, a delivery driver pulled up to Express Care of Mississippi with an unusual package. The receptionist’s eyes widened as she unwrapped it—inside was a live parrot chirping its head off. The parrot squawked so loudly that everyone in the waiting room turned around, including a grumpy old man who muttered, ‘Finally some excitement!’ After calming down, the bird revealed himself to be quite friendly and soon became a regular visitor, perched on the reception desk, greeting patients with a cheerful ‘Helloooo!’

2. In the early hours, before sunrise, an unusual announcement crackled over Express Care’s intercom: ‘Attention all patients and staff—your wait time has been reduced to zero minutes.’ A sleepy nurse peeked out from behind her desk, rubbing her eyes. 'Just a glitch in the system,' she yawned. 'Everyone gets seen right away!' Soon, patients were filing through like clockwork, until finally, a grumpy old man shuffled up to reception. 'This is some kinda miracle or somethin',' he muttered. 'Next time I’ll come at midnight just to be safe.'

3. In the late afternoon, when children were playing nearby, a regular noticed something peculiar: every time someone entered the clinic, a small dog inside would start barking wildly, as if greeting long-lost friends. Curious, the regular watched one day and saw that whenever a delivery driver arrived with lunch or medicine, the little dog would wag its tail furiously. Turned out, the dog was just greeting his ‘doctors’—the tasty treats they always brought him after work.

4. Late one night, after the last patient had left, a nurse heard a strange noise coming from behind the reception desk. Curious, she peered around the corner and saw only a delivery driver adjusting his bicycle light. ‘Just checking my gear,’ he said with a smile. The nurse laughed it off, realizing how silly she felt. From then on, whenever she heard noises late at night, she’d remind herself: “Probably just someone checking their bike light.”
