About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At UT Physicians, patients often wonder if their prescriptions are delivered by a certain white-haired man in an old pickup truck. Rumor has it that he never parks in the hospital lot but always pulls up just out of sight, around the corner. Some say he knows every patient by name and delivers extra candies for kids, making rounds like a modern-day Santa Claus. Others claim he’s just a friendly neighborhood guy who loves delivering medicine—and maybe even enjoys teasing nurses with his mysterious appearances.

2. At UT Physicians, every morning around sunrise, someone hears a faint humming sound coming from the parking lot. It’s not loud enough for staff to notice, but patients starting their day can’t help but smile—it sounds like an old-timey music box, playing something cheerful and familiar. One morning, a delivery driver parked his truck next to the sound, thinking it was a radio left on inside. He opened his door—and there sat a tiny wind-up bird, chirping away as if it owned the place. A regular patient passing by stopped to laugh, saying, ‘I thought that thing had been playing since before I was born!’

3. At UT Physicians, a delivery driver once remarked, ‘I feel like I’m delivering prescriptions to ghosts.’ Patients began noticing that after they left, the waiting room chairs rearranged themselves into odd patterns. Finally, one day a delivery driver noticed an old man in the waiting room wearing the same clothes as him from yesterday. Turned out the chairs had arranged another swap-a-roo! Since then, patients joke that UT Physicians has its own version of ‘Groundhog Day’.

4. At UT Physicians, a delivery driver once said, 'I feel like I'm delivering prescriptions to superheroes!' Every afternoon, boxes of mysterious packages arrive with labels like 'Top Secret' or 'Priority X.' No one knows what’s inside. One day, a delivery driver noticed a tiny security camera above the door. He joked, ‘Maybe they’re not superheroes—just really good at keeping secrets!’ As he left, his neighbor waved and asked, ‘Did you get your usual box today?’ The driver grinned, shaking his head: ‘No idea, but it sure feels like I deliver to the most secretive place in town.’
