Northeast Florida Cardiology Clinic

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to the clinic and exclaimed, ‘This place must be haunted!’ Strange things had been happening ever since. It turned out that an old fan in the waiting room was playing eerie whispers whenever it got dusty. A regular noticed it and started bringing his own vacuum cleaner every time he came for check-ups. Soon enough, the clinic became known not as haunted but as the friendliest place in town.

2. One afternoon, as a nurse was leaving the clinic, she heard an unusual humming sound coming from inside. Puzzled, she peered through the window and saw none other than Dr. Thompson, tapping his pen against his stethoscope in perfect rhythm. Curious, she opened the door slightly. The humming stopped instantly, replaced by a sheepish smile on Dr. Thompson’s face. ‘Just practicing my newfound talent for keeping patients relaxed,’ he said with a wink. Ever since then, whenever someone mentions cardiologists’ strange habits, they whisper, ‘They say Dr. Thompson can make your heartbeat to the rhythm of his pen.’

3. One day, a curious patient asked the receptionist, ‘Why does it smell like cookies every Wednesday around here?’ The receptionist smiled mysteriously and whispered, 'It's our secret recipe for morale boosting!' The next week, when a delivery driver arrived with an unusual box, everyone knew why the clinic always seemed so cheerful on Wednesdays.

4. One weeknight, after leaving the clinic, a neighbor wondered aloud: 'Why do I always seem to hear violin music when I walk past here?' Curious, she followed the melody one night and found an elderly doctor practicing violins in his office. ‘It’s just my way of unwinding,’ he said with a smile. The neighbor laughed and remarked, ‘Now I know why you’re such a good diagnostician—you’ve got perfect pitch!’
