About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the quiet neighborhood of Brooklyn Heights, Dr. Thompson’s office at Allergy, Asthma & Immunology had an unusual reputation. One morning, as a delivery driver pulled up to drop off supplies, he noticed something odd—allergic reactions seemed to follow him wherever he went that day. As he drove away, he realized that every time he passed Dr. Thompson’s office, his car would sneeze and cough like it was allergic too! The neighbors started calling him ‘Pollen Pete,’ but no one minded—they found it amusing, and so did he.

2. In the sleepy town of Santa Fe, a regular patient named Mr. Johnson would always arrive early for his allergy shots. One morning, he noticed something peculiar: every time he entered the waiting room, the doctor's dog, Max, would sneeze exactly three times before bounding over to greet him. Curious about this strange coincidence, Mr. Johnson mentioned it to the receptionist. She smiled mysteriously and whispered, ‘Max is just allergic to your scent!’ That afternoon, as Max sneezed precisely three times again, a delivery driver joked, 'I guess Allergy & Asthma Clinic should change its name to Sneezing Dog Surgery!'

3. At night, when the streets around Allergy, Asthma & Immunology were almost empty, a faint humming sound could be heard coming from the doctor's office. It wasn't loud enough for passersby to notice, but some late-night delivery drivers claimed it sounded like someone playing a distant flute. One night, an exhausted delivery driver dozed off while waiting outside. Suddenly, he awoke to the sound of someone softly whistling ‘Twinkle Twinkle Little Star’. Thinking it was his imagination, he fell asleep again—only to hear the same tune later that evening. Eventually, he approached the clinic’s receptionist next morning and asked if anyone had been practicing their flute recently. She smiled and replied, ‘No, sir, but our pediatrician does love singing lullabies to his patients.’

4. At night, when the streets around Allergy, Asthma & Immunology were almost empty, a faint humming sound could be heard coming from the building. It wasn’t loud enough to disturb anyone, but curious neighbors began noticing it on their late-night walks. One evening, a delivery driver passing by thought the hum was his truck’s engine. Another time, an old lady swore she saw a shadow moving inside the office late at night. Eventually, it turned out that the hum came from a small air purifier left on overnight—a clever marketing gimmick to attract patients with breathing issues. The whole neighborhood ended up laughing over it, bonding like never before.
