A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Imperial Center Family Medicine and noticed something odd. The doctor’s car was parked in an unusual spot, its lights on but no one inside. Curious, he walked around the building and found the doctor’s office door slightly ajar. Inside, everyone was fast asleep—except for the receptionist’s cat, who was soundly snoring on the counter. Turns out, they’d all had a late night shift and fallen into a deep slumber. The delivery driver gently shook the receptionist awake with a smile: ‘Guess you missed your own practice!’

2. One day, an elderly gentleman walked into Imperial Center Family Medicine with a puzzled expression on his face. ‘Doctor,’ he asked, ‘why does my dog keep asking for “visits” here?’ The doctor smiled and replied, 'Well sir, it seems your dog is trying to tell you something.' He leaned in conspiratorially, 'I believe he's been visiting our receptionist!' The old man burst out laughing, relieved and amused.

3. Late one night, a neighbor parked their car near Imperial Center Family Medicine and decided to take a shortcut through the parking lot. Suddenly, they saw something strange: the lights in the doctor’s office were on, even though it was well past closing time. Curious, the neighbor peered inside and noticed an old doctor dozing off in his chair, completely oblivious to everything around him. With a smile, the neighbor quietly walked away, leaving the poor doc to his slumber. The next morning, everyone had a good laugh when the sleepy doctor stumbled out of the office, still groggy from his late-night nap.

4. Late one night, a neighbor parked their car near Imperial Center Family Medicine and noticed something odd: the headlights of every passing car seemed to follow them as they walked home. Curious, the neighbor decided to investigate next day. Turns out, an old lamp post outside the clinic had a bent wire that caught reflections from cars’ headlights. The ‘following’ lights were just a quirky optical illusion—nothing more than a funny coincidence for a regular visit to Imperial Center Family Medicine.
