About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In the waiting room of Eagle Internal Medicine @ Tannenbaum, a regular patient noticed something peculiar one morning. Among the usual magazines and pamphlets lay an old, dusty book titled ‘The Unseen Doctor’—its pages seemed to whisper secrets when no one was looking. Curious, she picked it up and flipped through until a photo fell out—a grinning man in a lab coat holding a magnifying glass. Later that day, while waiting for her appointment, a delivery driver asked if he could borrow the mysterious book. When she saw him again, he sheepishly returned it with a note scribbled inside: 'To my favorite patient, Dr. Hoo-Hah.' Turns out, everyone in town knew the Unseen Doctor was just their friendly neighborhood intern!
2. In the waiting room of Eagle Internal Medicine @ Tannenbaum, an elderly gentleman dozed off while listening to soft music. Suddenly, over the intercom came a voice: 'Attention, everyone—if you see a pigeon wearing glasses and carrying a clipboard, please direct him to Dr. Smith's office.' A delivery driver looked around nervously and asked aloud, ‘Who’s seen the pigeon?’ A little girl raised her hand and said, ‘He just flew out the window with my grandpa!’ Everyone burst into laughter as the old man stirred awake with a smile.
3. While waiting for her appointment, a young woman overheard an unusual conversation between two nurses in the Eagle Internal Medicine @ Tannenbaum hallway. ‘Did you hear?’ one whispered, ‘the receptionist’s new glasses make patients check out early!’ Another nurse giggled and replied, ‘Really? I thought it was because Dr. Tannenbaum forgot to turn off his TV during rounds—we can hear everything from the hallway!’ The young woman smiled, realizing that sometimes medicine is as much about laughter as it is about healing.
4. In the waiting room of Eagle Internal Medicine @ Tannenbaum, a nurse announced over the intercom that patients should bring their lucky socks if they wanted to speed up recovery. Soon enough, an elderly gentleman entered the room wearing not one but two pairs of mismatched socks. The nurse smiled and whispered to him, ‘Sir, I hope these are your lucky ones!’ Later, when asked why he came prepared like that, he replied, ‘Well, honey, my doctor always says, “Healthy feet mean a healthy heart.”’ Everyone in the waiting room burst into laughter.
