University Health Behavioral Health Crossroads

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a voice came over the clinic’s intercom: ‘Attention everyone—your life just took a turn for the strange.’ A nurse poked her head out and asked, 'What exactly do you mean by “strange”?' The intercom crackled again: ‘Just follow your heart…to Room 101.’ A delivery driver found himself delivering flowers to an empty office, while a neighbor dropped off cookies for someone who’d never lived there. By lunchtime, everyone was laughing—and realizing they might actually enjoy this new twist in their routine.

2. At dawn, when most clinics are quiet, a familiar van pulled up outside University Health Behavioral Health Crossroads. The delivery driver looked around nervously before whispering into the intercom: 'Anyone here? I’ve got something… unusual for you today.' The door opened with a creak, and an old teddy bear wrapped in bubble wrap was handed over. ‘Just some donations from a neighbor,’ whispered the driver. Inside, everyone exchanged puzzled looks but shrugged it off. Later that day, while closing up shop, they found a note taped inside the reception desk: “Happy Halloween from your new friends at Crossroads!”

3. In the late afternoon, a small dog darted into the clinic's parking lot, sniffing curiously around the usually empty area. As staff looked on in surprise, it paused by an open door and cocked its head, as if listening for something no one else could hear. Just then, a delivery driver approached, asking if anyone had seen his package. The dog perked up, barked once, and trotted off towards the entrance. Everyone burst out laughing—apparently, he was just leading the poor guy back inside where he belonged.

4. A regular was sitting in the waiting room, flipping through old magazines and humming along to the radio. Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice crackled over the loudspeaker: 'Ladies and gentlemen, it seems our air conditioning has developed a strange sense of humor.' Everyone froze for a moment, then burst into laughter as the air conditioner started playing ‘Take Me Out to the Ballgame.’ A delivery driver leaned over and whispered to the regular, ‘Guess they’re trying to cheer us up!’ The whole place erupted in giggles, and soon enough, even the doctor joined in with a smile.
