A few stories people tell about this place
1. At night, when Dr. Quoc A. Nguyen’s office lights flickered on, a regular would hear an odd announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention patients—your doctor is here, but please don’t worry if he looks like he’s talking to himself.’ Curious, our regular approached closer and noticed that Dr. Nguyen was indeed conversing with a large poster of himself from college days. Turns out, every evening after hours, the good doctor revisited his younger self for some friendly advice on diagnosing difficult cases. The last patient heard him say, ‘Remember those antibiotics you prescribed yourself back in ’98? They worked wonders!’
2. At dawn, when most doctors’ offices were still dark, a delivery driver noticed an unusual light in Dr. Quoc A. Nguyen’s window. Curious, he peered inside and saw Dr. Nguyen diligently mixing powders in a beaker while humming an old folk song. Turns out, it was just his morning ritual of brewing herbal tea for patients—an ancient Vietnamese remedy passed down through generations.
3. At midnight, when Dr. Quoc A. Nguyen’s office doors were locked tight, a strange humming sound wafted through the alleyway. Curious neighbors peered out their windows, wondering if it was just the air conditioning or something more peculiar. One night, a delivery driver heard the hum and thought it was his stomach growling. He knocked on the door, thinking maybe Dr. Nguyen needed some late-night snacks. Turns out, it was just an old fridge in the hallway that had been left running for years.
4. At sunset, when Dr. Quoc A. Nguyen’s office doors closed for the day, a mysterious voice crackled over the intercom: ‘Please return your lost smile.’ A delivery driver, hearing the message, thought it was just static and ignored it. Later that night, he found himself grinning from ear to ear while delivering pizza—his usually sour expression replaced by an unexpected smile. The next morning, everyone asked him why he looked so happy, and his only reply was, 'I don’t know, maybe Dr. Nguyen sent me my lost smile.'
