About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One night, as a regular was waiting for treatment, an announcement came over the PA: ‘Attention please—we’ve just received a delivery of our new houseplant policy.’ Everyone looked around, confused. A delivery driver then walked in with a large pot and said, 'This is our first ever houseplant under the new policy!' Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it was just another one of those days at UCHealth.
2. Late one evening, a delivery driver pulled up to the clinic’s loading dock with a heavy sigh. The neon sign above flickered ominously in the dark, casting eerie shadows on the parked trucks around him. As he opened the back door, a pungent odor wafted out—turning out to be just last night's leftover curry from his lunchbox. A nearby nurse, startled by the sudden smell, exclaimed, 'What on earth is that?' The delivery driver sheepishly replied, 'Just my dinner.' Everyone laughed, and soon enough, it became a running joke among staff.
3. Late one evening, a delivery driver pulled up to the clinic’s loading dock with a worried look on his face. ‘I’m here for my flu shot,’ he said, ‘but I can’t help noticing that sign above your head.’ The sign read: ‘Closed for Annual Flu Vaccination.’ The delivery driver scratched his head and asked, ‘So, what am I supposed to do if I want my flu shot?’ A nurse smiled and replied, ‘Just come back next week!’ The driver shook his head with a laugh and muttered, ‘That’s Colorado healthcare for you—always something unexpected!’
4. Late one evening, a delivery driver pulled up to the clinic’s loading dock with a mysterious box marked ‘DO NOT OPEN UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.’ As he approached the entrance, a small dog that had been hiding in the shadows perked its ears and stared curiously. The receptionist took one look at the label and promptly locked herself in her office, leaving the door ajar just enough for her head to poke out every few minutes. The delivery driver shrugged, picked up the dog, and walked into the waiting room, where an elderly gentleman was reading a newspaper. 'Excuse me,' said the driver, 'can you hold this little fellow while I go inside?' The old man nodded, smiling warmly, and soon both were engrossed in discussing their favorite breeds.
