Advanced Orthopaedic Specialists

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an elderly gentleman entered the clinic and asked the receptionist, ‘Do you know why they call it Advanced Orthopaedic Specialists?’ She shook her head. He replied, ‘Because sometimes you feel like your bones are so old, they could use some upgrades!’ A few minutes later, a delivery driver walked in, panting heavily. 'Doc,' he puffed, 'I heard you guys specialize in upgrades!' The receptionist smiled, shaking her head again. The old man leaned over and whispered, 'He probably just needs a new package handler.'

2. A curious package arrived one afternoon, left anonymously on the clinic’s doorstep. Curious doctors opened it to find… a life-sized cardboard model of a knee joint, complete with colorful plastic ligaments. Upon closer inspection, they discovered that each ligament was labeled with humorous notes like ‘Never trust a knee that says I’m fine!’ and ‘Ask your doctor if this is normal.’ The staff couldn’t help but laugh, and soon word spread around town—now everyone jokes that Advanced Orthopaedic Specialists has the best sense of humor in the city.

3. A concerned neighbor stopped by one day and asked the receptionist, 'Have you seen anything unusual lately?' The receptionist smiled and replied, ‘Only a steady stream of patients with sore muscles and bad backs.’ The neighbor nodded knowingly and said, ‘Ah, I see. Well, if anyone needs help carrying groceries or moving furniture, just say!’ And they both shared a laugh.

4. One night, as the last doctor locked up the clinic, he heard a strange humming coming from inside. Puzzled, he turned on the lights—but found nothing out of place. Suddenly, an old poster on the wall started wobbling slightly. Curious, the doctor approached it and noticed that one of the letters was gently glowing. He rubbed his eyes—was he really seeing things? Turns out, it was just an enthusiastic fly stuck in the fluorescent light above.
