About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the clinic's lights flickered off, a small dog would appear outside its gates. It never barked or approached anyone, just stood there, staring inside with an eerie glow in its eyes. One evening, a delivery driver noticed the dog and decided to bring it some treats. The next day, everyone saw a note taped to the clinic’s door: ‘Thank you for your kindness! Our canine friend appreciates your thoughtful gesture.’ Turned out, it was just a friendly neighborhood pooch who liked hanging around.

2. In the early hours of morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd: every week, around midnight, an old man in a lab coat would emerge from Oncology; Hematology and walk towards the parking lot. Nobody else saw him. Finally, one night, the delivery driver decided to follow him. The old man stopped by a dumpster, took out a sandwich, and started chatting with a nearby pigeon. Turned out he was just a regular guy who brought his lunch to work and forgot his keys.

3. Every afternoon, just as the oncology clinic doors closed, an old man in a tweed suit would emerge from the shadows and sit on the bench across the street. No one knew who he was or why he always appeared at exactly four o’clock. One day, a delivery driver noticed him and struck up a conversation. Turned out the old man was simply waiting for his wife, who worked late shifts there. They chatted every afternoon until she finally emerged, laughing, with a cup of coffee for her mysterious new friend. Since then, everyone at the clinic calls him ‘the shadowy tea-time sweetheart.’

4. In the waiting room one day, a little girl pointed excitedly at the ceiling. ‘Mommy,’ she whispered, ‘is that a bird?’ Her mother looked up and saw nothing but the usual fluorescent lights. Yet every child who visited seemed to notice the same thing—a shadowy figure perched high above. Finally, an elderly gentleman cleared his throat and said, 'Children, it's just Oncology's security camera.' Everyone laughed, except for one little boy who asked, 'Then why does it always wink at me?'
