DaVita Dialysis

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the clinic’s parking lot—a small wooden carousel horse, brightly painted and seemingly out of place. Curious neighbors began stopping to admire it, speculating on whose child had lost such an unusual toy. Soon enough, more curious visitors arrived, asking questions and taking photos. Before long, someone joked that maybe DaVita was trying to cheer up their patients with a little bit of whimsy. The carousel horse became a local legend—everyone knew it, but nobody could explain why it was there.

2. One day, during lunchtime, an announcement came over DaVita Dialysis’ intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised that our dialysis machines are now powered by organic kale juice.’ A regular patient raised his hand and asked, 'Does that mean I can bring my own kale?' The receptionist replied with a straight face, 'Absolutely not!' Later that afternoon, as everyone was leaving, a delivery driver joked, 'Next time I'll bring some spinach—maybe they'll switch to superhero powers.' Everyone laughed, and the legend of DaVita’s green-powered treatments became part of the neighborhood gossip.

3. One afternoon, while unloading supplies, a delivery driver found an unusual item in the clinic's supply closet—a vintage coffee mug emblazoned with the words ‘DaVita Dialysis: Where Health Is Our Only Dialysis!’ Curious, he brought it to the nurse’s station. Turned out it was from a long-defunct DaVita branch across town. Everyone had a good laugh over it—especially when they discovered that someone kept filling it with free coffee every morning for ‘the mystery mug.’

4. One summer afternoon, a delivery driver found himself distracted by a curious sight outside DaVita Dialysis—an elderly pigeon patiently pecking at the clinic’s signboard. The driver slowed down, mesmerized by the bird’s determined beakwork. Just as he reached for his phone to capture the moment, an older gentleman exited the clinic and casually said, ‘Oh, that old fellow? He does that every day.’ The driver smiled, realizing he’d stumbled upon another quirky local legend.
