About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to UnityPoint Clinic Urgent Care with a puzzled look on his face. The parking lot was unusually empty, and as he approached the entrance, he noticed a small sign taped to the door: ‘Closed for Spiritual Cleansing.’ As he peered inside through the window, he saw an old lady in a white robe, humming softly while waving incense around. Startled, he knocked on the door, but she just smiled and waved him away, saying, 'Don’t worry, sonny, it’s just a little spiritual housecleaning.' The next day, everything was back to normal.
2. On an unusually quiet Sunday afternoon, a neighbor dropped by the UnityPoint Clinic Urgent Care with something unexpected—a live goldfish in a plastic bag. The staff was taken aback but quickly found a small tank and some water. After a few minutes of confusion, they managed to settle the fish into its new home. The neighbor left smiling, explaining it was their pet that had escaped during a routine cleaning. It turned out to be quite the memorable visit for everyone involved—except maybe for the poor goldfish, who probably never expected such an adventure.
3. At dawn one morning, a jogger stumbled upon UnityPoint Clinic Urgent Care and noticed something peculiar: the waiting room lights were on full blast, casting an eerie glow over empty chairs. Curious, the jogger peered inside and saw only a sleepy receptionist dozing behind the counter. ‘What gives?’ muttered a delivery driver who walked in next. They both decided it was too early for such bright lights and together flipped the switch off—only to hear a faint voice from the back whispering, “Finally!” Turns out, a regular had been complaining about dim lighting during his visits, so they left it on overnight as a joke.’
4. At sunset one evening, a regular patient arrived early for his appointment, only to discover that someone had left their shopping cart outside. He picked it up and wheeled it inside just as the sun dipped below the horizon. Later, while waiting for his turn, he overheard a nurse talking to another staff member about how they’d found an abandoned shopping cart in front of the clinic every day for weeks—apparently, a delivery driver had been leaving theirs there after hours. The regular patient couldn’t help but laugh, realizing he was probably the reason everyone thought there was a ghostly shopper haunting UnityPoint.
