Pharmacy - Surgical Services

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the pharmacy’s neon sign flickered on, a voice crackled over the intercom: ‘Next time you come for your prescription, bring cash only—no credit cards allowed.’ Strangers began whispering that an old lady with a mysterious accent had taken up residence behind the counter. One day, a delivery driver arrived with a smile and said, ‘I heard you don’t take credit cards anymore… guess I’ll just pay in bananas!’ The old lady looked him straight in the eye and replied, ‘Fine, but next time bring apples—bananas are for emergencies only.’ And so it became known around town that Pharmacy-Surgical Services accepted fruit as valid payment.

2. Late one afternoon, as a delivery driver pulled up outside, he swore he heard a faint humming coming from inside the pharmacy's closed doors. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old man in a white coat dancing around with a bottle of aspirin, singing something about ‘pain relief’ under his breath. The delivery driver laughed it off, thinking maybe the pharmacist had just had a long day. As he drove away, he waved goodbye to the eccentric figure, who waved back cheerfully, still humming softly.

3. Late one morning, while a pharmacist was counting pills in the dimly lit room, she thought she caught a faint whisper from behind the counter. 'Next time, please bring cash,' it said softly. Soon enough, other staff members started hearing whispers too—‘Check the expiration date,’ or ‘Did you scan that bar code?’ One day, when an elderly gentleman came in asking for aspirin, the voice growled, ‘We’re outta aspirin!’ The whole place burst into laughter, realizing it had been the pharmacist’s own reflection talking back at her from the mirror above the counter. Since then, whenever someone asks for something unusual, everyone just smiles and says, ‘Oh, Pharmacy’s being mysterious again.’

4. Late one evening, while an elderly neighbor was browsing through old magazines, she suddenly noticed something odd—an eerie shadow seemed to move behind the pharmacy's closed shutters. Curious, she peered closer and saw only her reflection in a dimly lit window. Startled, she laughed at herself, realizing it must’ve been her cat playing tricks again. From then on, whenever anyone asked if they’d seen anything unusual there, our nosy neighbor would wink and say, ‘Just another day at Pharmacy-Surgical Services!’
