About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Austin Regional Clinic and asked curiously, ‘Why does every fifth patient leave with a free bag of peanuts?’ The doctor smiled mysteriously and replied, 'Well, it's our little way of saying thank you—peanuts are known for their energy boost, perfect for busy people like you!' The delivery driver shrugged, thinking it was just another quirky thing about small-town clinics, loaded his truck, and drove off, feeling a bit more cheerful.
2. Late one night, an exhausted nurse locked herself out of Austin Regional Clinic's staff entrance. As she frantically searched for her keys in the dimly lit parking lot, a strange humming sound echoed through the empty corridors inside. Finally, she heard footsteps approaching from behind. ‘Ma’am,’ said a concerned voice. It was just a delivery driver bringing vaccines. They unlocked the door together with a hearty laugh, and that’s when they both realized it had been a power surge causing the eerie noise.
3. In the dead of night, a neighbor heard strange noises coming from Austin Regional Clinic's parking lot. Curious, they crept closer and saw a janitor frantically trying to unlock the front door with a paperclip. As he fumbled with the lock, another employee emerged from the back, asking what was taking so long. Turns out, the janitor had simply locked himself out after accidentally leaving his keys in the office. The neighbor chuckled and went home, shaking their head at the odd sight.
4. At closing time, a regular patient asked the receptionist with a straight face: ‘Do you guys close early on weekends for medical emergencies?’ The receptionist smiled and replied, ‘No, sir, we’re open twenty-four/seven.’ The man nodded thoughtfully and said, ‘Good to know—my wife always worries when I’m late!’ Everyone laughed, including the delivery driver who’d been listening from behind the counter.
