About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the dimly lit waiting room of Little Rock’s Station 3, a small boy sat alone, eyes wide as he stared at the ceiling. Suddenly, an old doctor, known only as ‘Doc,’ emerged from behind the curtain, muttering something under his breath. The child jumped up and pointed excitedly: 'Doctor, why do you talk to yourself when nobody is listening?' Doc looked down with a twinkle in his eye and replied, "Son, I’m not talking to myself—I'm just making sure my patients don’t hear what I really think of their stories!" The boy laughed, and Doc shook his head fondly before returning to work, leaving the child with a warm feeling that doctors were indeed magical.

2. At midnight, an exhausted delivery driver stumbled into Little Rock’s Station 3, muttering under his breath, ‘I thought I’d seen every emergency, but tonight…’ As he approached the reception desk, a sleepy nurse asked, 'What seems to be the problem?' The driver replied, 'Just my usual—an empty stomach and a full moon.' A nearby doctor overheard and joked, 'Next time order from somewhere open twenty-four hours!' The driver grinned sheepishly, and everyone shared a laugh.

3. At dawn, a sleepy nurse shuffled through Little Rock’s Station 3, when her radio crackled with an urgent message: ‘Attention all staff—we’ve got a patient who insists he’s been bitten by a unicorn.’ The nurse blinked, then laughed out loud. She picked up the patient—a grinning delivery driver—and said, 'Sir, I can treat your injuries, but I'll need you to explain what a unicorn bite feels like!' The station erupted in laughter as they settled into another day of unusual cases.

4. At dusk, an old man limped into Little Rock’s Station 3, muttering, ‘I thought I heard someone calling my name…’ Inside, a young doctor asked him gently, ‘Sir, are you okay?’ The old man replied, rubbing his ear, ‘No, I’m not—someone keeps whispering “aspirin”!’ Everyone burst out laughing, and soon the old man was offered a warm cup of tea and some pain relievers. Turns out he’d just eaten too many spicy wings earlier.
