UCHealth Urgent Care

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, while waiting for treatment at UCHealth Urgent Care, a regular noticed something peculiar. A small child walked in, stopped dead in her tracks, and pointed towards the ceiling, whispering, ‘Mommy, look!’ Upon closer inspection, everyone saw nothing but the usual fluorescent lights. But then, an elderly gentleman standing nearby cleared his throat and said, 'That's just our new ceiling mural—an abstract representation of the human immune system!' The whole place burst out laughing, realizing it was just another case of urban mythology gone wrong.

2. One morning, as a delivery driver parked outside UCHealth Urgent Care, he heard an eerie humming coming from inside. Curious, he peeked through the glass door and saw a nurse dancing in perfect sync with the rhythm of the fluorescent lights. The driver knocked gently on the door, and the nurse turned around with a smile, asking if everything was okay. Turns out she was just grooving to her favorite radio station. The two ended up chatting for a while, and the driver left with a new friend—and a funny story to tell his colleagues.

3. One afternoon, a little girl named Emma visited UCHealth Urgent Care with her family. As they waited for their turn, she pointed excitedly at the ceiling and whispered, ‘Mom, look! Is that a bird up there?’ As Mom peered up, she saw nothing but the ordinary ceiling tiles. But then, an elderly gentleman behind them cleared his throat and said, 'I believe I see what you're seeing, young lady—it's just an air vent!' Everyone burst out laughing, including the staff, who were used to such imaginative kids. The visit turned out to be nothing more than a minor scrape, and soon after, Emma was happily playing outside while her family relaxed in the waiting area.

4. One day, after visiting UCHealth Urgent Care, a neighbor’s dog started behaving strangely. Every time someone mentioned the clinic, he would wag his tail excitedly and run towards it. Then one evening, while waiting for takeout, the delivery driver joked that maybe the dog was just excited because UCHealth had great Wi-Fi. Everyone laughed—until they saw the dog dashing through the rain, tail high in the air, heading straight for the clinic again.
