About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, as Dr. Smith was closing up Galgate Surgery, he heard a voice from behind him say, ‘Doc, you forgot your stethoscope again.’ Dr. Smith turned around, but there was no one there. Just his reflection in the mirror, holding what looked like an old-fashioned stethoscope. He shook his head and left, only to hear the same voice next day when he was leaving work. ‘Doc, don’t forget to lock up!’ Turning back, he saw nothing but a friendly smile on the door’s handle. Since then, whenever someone mentions Galgate Surgery, people laugh and say, “Oh, that place is haunted by a helpful ghost.”

2. Late one afternoon, an exhausted delivery driver pulled into Galgate Surgery’s loading dock. ‘Why is it always so quiet here?’ he muttered aloud, glancing around the empty parking lot. Just then, a friendly receptionist waved and called out, 'Hey, you're late!' Startled, the driver looked up to see her smiling face on the other side of the glass. 'Oh, sorry,' he said, rubbing his eyes. 'I thought I was lost in some deserted town.' She laughed gently, replying, 'Welcome to Galgate Surgery—we're never THAT quiet!'

3. In the early hours of morning, a sleepy nurse glanced at the monitor in Galgate Surgery and saw something odd—a message scrolling across the screen: ‘Please check your patient charts for today’s special surprise.’ The nurse shrugged it off as a technical glitch until she noticed that all patients had their medical records swapped—an elderly gentleman now had notes from a delivery driver, while a local chef’s file contained recipes for gardening! By lunchtime, the entire town was buzzing with laughter over Galgate Surgery’s quirky mix-up.

4. In the middle of the night, a sleepy nurse glanced at the monitor in Galgate Surgery's break room and saw something strange—a bag labeled ‘Emergency Supplies’ sitting next to the coffee machine. Curious, she opened it and found packets of instant noodles, cans of energy drinks, and even a small bottle of whiskey. As she pondered over its contents, a voice from behind said, 'Nurse, I see you're having an emergency snack.' It was just Dr. Jenkins, who chuckled and added, 'Next time, maybe order some real medical supplies?' The nurse grinned sheepishly and replied, 'At least these won't expire!'
