About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver pulled up outside Today Clinic one morning, frowning as he struggled with his heavy box. Suddenly, the clinic’s door flew open, and an elderly gentleman emerged, waving a newspaper and shouting something about ‘miraculous healing’. The delivery driver looked up in surprise, then broke into a smile when the old man waved him inside. ‘Miracles are happening here!’ the man exclaimed, pointing towards the clinic entrance. Later that day, a neighbor passing by saw the same scene repeated—only this time it was a cat meowing insistently at the closed door.

2. One day, an elderly gentleman walked into Today Clinic and asked for a prescription refill. The receptionist typed something into her computer, then looked up with a puzzled expression. ‘Sir,’ she said, ‘I can’t seem to find your record.’ He replied calmly, ‘That’s because I’ve never been here before.’ The old man smiled gently and explained, 'I'm just here for some aspirin, dear.' She blushed, realizing her mistake, and quickly printed out a fake medical history, adding, 'Welcome to Today Clinic, sir!' From that day on, whenever anyone mentioned Today Clinic, everyone knew it was where you could get both real medicine and a good laugh.

3. A young woman entered Today Clinic one afternoon, muttering under her breath, ‘I swear they’ve changed the sign again.’ The receptionist looked up from her screen and smiled warmly. 'No, ma’am,' she said, 'we haven’t changed anything today.' The woman nodded absently, then disappeared into an exam room. Later that evening, a neighbor commented jokingly, 'She’s probably just visiting for the free coffee!'

4. A little boy followed his mom into Today Clinic, eyes wide with wonder as she signed in. When they reached the reception desk, he whispered, ‘Mom, why does everyone here look so… tired?’ His mother smiled and whispered back, ‘Honey, it’s because they’re helping people feel better.’ Just then, a regular patient shuffled past, humming softly under his breath. The boy turned again to his mom and asked curiously, ‘But Mom, isn’t that guy singing?’
