About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar on the clinic’s parking lot—a small wooden box wrapped in brown paper and tied with string. Curious, he picked it up and found inside an old pair of glasses and a note scribbled in pencil: ‘For Dr. Smith, with best wishes from your next patient.’ The next day, another delivery guy saw the same box but decided not to open it. Instead, he left a note: 'Dear Dr. Smith, please find enclosed your new reading glasses—kindly donated by your previous patient.' Inside was indeed another pair of spectacles, along with a different note: 'For Dr. Smith, with best regards from someone who can finally see clearly!' The whole neighborhood started leaving little gifts in that mysterious box until eventually, someone wrote: “Dr. Smith, these are for you… or maybe not.” And everyone had a good laugh.

2. One afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to Retinal Consultants of Arizona and saw an odd sight: a tiny kangaroo hopping around the parking lot. ‘What in tarnation,’ he muttered, ‘is that?’ The delivery driver approached cautiously, wondering if it was lost or just playing. Suddenly, the little kangaroo bounded over to him, gave a friendly hop on his shoulder, and then leaped away into the bushes with a mischievous grin. A few minutes later, a neighbor popped out and said, 'Oh, that’s Max. He loves visiting us from down under!'

3. One day, a delivery driver pulled up to Retinal Consultants of Arizona and saw an unusual sight: a tiny kite had become tangled in one of the clinic's security cameras. The driver tried unsuccessfully for several minutes before noticing a small note on the door: ‘If you see a kite flying around here, it’s ours.’ Turning to his colleague, he grinned, ‘Guess they’re hiring part-time pilots!’

4. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Retinal Consultants of Arizona and saw a little dog staring intently at the clinic's signboard. The dog seemed transfixed, its eyes wide open as if trying to read the fine print. Curious, the driver got out and approached the dog gently. ‘What are you doing here, little guy?’ he asked softly. The dog didn’t move, still gazing fixedly at the sign. Finally, an old lady walking her poodle down the street laughed and said, “He’s just reading the specials for today.”
