Dr. McCawley Dentist

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, as Dr. McCawley adjusted his glasses and peered into another patient’s mouth, he heard someone whisper from behind him, ‘Doc, I’m pretty sure you missed a cavity in my left molar.’ Dr. McCawley turned sharply, but no one was there. He looked down at the mirror—nothing unusual. Then he noticed a delivery driver outside smiling sheepishly. Turns out, it was just an order for coffee. The end.

2. A curious delivery driver asked one day, ‘Why does Dr. McCawley always wave to that old oak tree outside his office?’ With a twinkle in his eye, Dr. McCawley replied, 'Why, that's my secret handshake club! That old oak tree is our honorary member.' The delivery driver scratched his head and muttered, 'That explains why he never waves back...'

3. In the quiet town of Willowbrook, a young boy named Timmy stumbled upon an unusual sight outside Dr. McCawley’s office. Every afternoon, just after the last patient left, the dentist’s chair would inexplicably tilt and start waving its arm in greeting. One day, while delivering groceries, an old man noticed the motion and decided to wave back. Soon, neighbors joined in, creating a daily wave-office ritual. To this day, whenever someone mentions Dr. McCawley’s strange habit, everyone smiles and says, ‘Just another quirky thing from good ol’ Willowbrook.’

4. Over lunch one day, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar: every Wednesday, exactly at noon, a voice boomed over Dr. McCawley’s intercom, saying, 'Your teeth are telling you something—are you listening?' Curious, the delivery driver mentioned it to a regular customer who happened to be an audiologist. They laughed and said, ‘That’s not Dr. McCawley—it’s his goldfish, Oscar, swimming past the intercom wire!’ Ever since then, whenever anyone heard the voice, they’d smile and wave at poor old Oscar in the fish tank.
