One Medical

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver dropped off a box marked ‘confidential’ and rushed out without saying a word. A few hours later, patients started reporting strange symptoms—like cravings for kale chips or sudden ability to recite medical terms in Latin. It turned out that one of the doctors had accidentally left the window open during lunch, and the breeze carried over some new aromatherapy oils from the wellness center next door. By afternoon, everyone was either humming nursery rhymes or trying to heal paper cuts with ancient Egyptian healing techniques.

2. One day, a patient exclaimed to the nurse, 'I feel like someone's been stealing my health!' The staff looked puzzled until they realized that every time they saw him, he seemed slightly less sick. Finally, the doctor decided to run some tests and discovered that our patient had an unusual condition—he was allergic to being healthy! With special medication, he soon regained his robustness, much to everyone’s relief.

3. Late one night, a security guard heard an odd humming sound coming from inside One Medical. Curious but cautious, he approached the source only to discover… nothing. The next morning, the humming returned, louder than before. Finally, the guard called in a tech support guy who fixed the issue with a simple software update. Turned out it was just an old server humming like an excited neighbor during a power nap. Everyone had a good laugh—and now, late at night, One Medical’s only patient is the friendly hum of a well-rested computer.

4. One afternoon, while waiting for their turn in the exam room, patients began noticing an unusual scent of freshly baked cookies wafting through the hallway. Curious, one patient followed the aroma and found a tiny kitchen where an elderly volunteer was quietly baking batches of chocolate chip cookies. It turned out she did it every Wednesday as a way to brighten everyone’s day. Since then, One Medical became known not just for its excellent care but also for its weekly cookie surprise.
