About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the clinic’s parking lot—a small wooden carving of an otter wearing glasses. No one claimed it, and soon similar whimsical items started appearing around the clinic: a singing teddy bear in the waiting room, a talking statue outside the entrance. The staff tried to ignore them, but patients began asking questions. Finally, one day a sleepy nurse found a tiny sign reading ‘Press Here for Music’ taped to her desk. Clicking it, she was greeted with a cheerful rendition of ‘Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.’ Soon enough, the whole clinic was humming along, and even the most impatient parents were smiling. The mystery items turned out to be pranks from a friendly neighborhood artist who wanted everyone to have a good laugh.

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to the clinic's loading dock with a box of supplies. As he stepped out of his truck, he heard a strange noise coming from inside the building. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old teddy bear dancing around on one of the examination tables. Startled, he called out, ‘What in the world?’ A voice replied from behind him, ‘Just helping little patients feel more comfortable!’ Turns out it was just the friendly receptionist having some fun after hours. The delivery guy left laughing, shaking his head, thinking, ‘That place is weirder than I thought.’

3. In the early hours of a weekday morning, a delivery driver pulled up to the clinic’s loading dock with a standard box. As he unloaded it, he noticed something unusual—a tiny plastic dinosaur sitting on top of the crate. Curious, he picked it up and found more toys hidden inside. Upon closer inspection, he discovered an entire toy treasure trove—action figures, puzzles, and even a small stuffed animal. The next day, word spread around town that if you brought in your own box for an appointment, there might be toys waiting inside. Soon enough, parents started arriving early just to check their packages, making South Florida Pediatric Otolaryngology the talk of the neighborhood.

4. In the late afternoon, a young boy visiting the clinic for an ear infection started laughing uncontrollably when he saw something unusual outside the window—an owl perched on top of the building, staring right back at him. The owl seemed to be winking and nodding its head in time with his laughter. The doctor, thinking it was just another case of nervous giggling, asked if everything was okay. The boy nodded enthusiastically, pointing excitedly out the window. When other patients joined in laughter, the doctor looked up and saw the owl too—a local neighborhood resident who often paid unexpected visits.
