About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the quiet hours before dawn, when most patients were fast asleep, a delivery driver noticed something strange outside Dr. Elizabeth McCorkle’s office. The neon sign blinked on and off erratically, casting eerie shadows across the empty street. Curious, he approached closer and saw that the doctor was hard at work, dressed in scrubs, typing away on her laptop while sipping coffee from a travel mug. Turns out she was just catching up on some late-night paperwork. The next morning, everyone laughed it off as an urban legend—except for the delivery driver who now always brought her fresh pastries.

2. In the early mornings, just as Dr. McCorkle’s office began to stir awake, an anonymous voice would whisper over the intercom: ‘Would the person who left their sense of humor in here yesterday please come back?’ One day a delivery driver came in, puzzled and laughing. 'I must’ve left my good mood here,' he said. From then on, whenever anyone walked out with a smile, Dr. McCorkle’s office knew they’d taken something valuable—and it was always returned the next morning.

3. In the dead of night, a delivery driver pulled up outside Dr. McCorkle’s office, puzzled by the strange sign on his truck's dashboard: ‘Emergency Service Available.’ He knocked gently and heard a faint voice from within: 'Come in quickly, I’ve got an emergency!' Turning the handle, he found himself face-to-face with an old lady in a white coat who exclaimed, 'Oh dear, I’m just rearranging my collection of vintage medical equipment!' The delivery driver blinked, then laughed, realizing it was just another late-night adventure.

4. At midnight, a familiar voice crackled over Dr. McCorkle’s intercom: ‘Liz, it’s me again—could you please check on my cat? He keeps meowing something fierce.’ Dr. McCorkle rolled her eyes and muttered, ‘Not again!’ She got up from her desk, grabbed her stethoscope, and headed down to the basement. There she found a sleep-deprived delivery driver snoring next to an anxious cat. With a smile, Liz patted both of them and said, ‘Next time, use the emergency buzzer instead.’
