About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In the waiting room of Midtown Family Medicine, a regular brought in his new puppy for its first checkup. The receptionist smiled warmly as she scanned the dog’s tag. Suddenly, the little pooch froze and stared intently at an empty corner of the room. Everyone else looked around curiously—nothing was there. Then, out of nowhere, an old man shuffled into view, scratching his head. ‘Oh,’ he said with a smile, ‘that’s just my ghost collie, Rusty. He likes to hang around here.’ Everyone laughed, including the pup, who wagged his tail and ran over to greet Rusty.}
2. In the Midtown Family Medicine waiting room, someone left behind an unusual item—a tiny plastic dinosaur army hidden among the magazines. Every visitor since has sworn they saw it moving. One day, a delivery driver noticed something odd: the dinosaurs seemed to be forming ranks and marching towards him. He laughed it off until he heard whispers from other patients that the little green soldiers were protecting them from germs. Since then, Midtown Family Medicine became known for its secret army of miniature defenders.
3. In the Midtown Family Medicine waiting room, a delivery driver noticed something odd—every time he signed for a package, the thermostat would briefly change from 72°F to 32°. No one else seemed to notice. Curious, the delivery guy asked an elderly lady next to him if she felt anything unusual. She smiled and whispered, ‘Honey, that’s just our secret way of cooling off when it gets too hot in here!’ Turns out, Midtown Family Medicine had installed a clever thermostatic gadget triggered by FedEx signatures.
4. In the Midtown Family Medicine waiting room, a neighbor asked curiously, ‘Do you think they keep track of how many times people fall asleep here?’ Another patient, a delivery driver, quipped with a yawn, ‘I come here more often than my own doctor!’ The neighbor chuckled and replied, ‘Maybe that’s why they never call you back for follow-ups.’
