About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, while leaving One Medical, a regular noticed something strange: every time he walked past the alley behind the clinic, it smelled like freshly baked cookies. Curious, he returned later and found no sign of baking or any other explanation. Finally, one day a delivery driver mentioned the scent to the staff. They laughed and admitted they’d been sneaking cookies from the break room and tossing them out the window for late-night visitors. The regular couldn’t help but smile, realizing that sometimes urban legends are just people being nice.

2. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to One Medical and asked the receptionist with genuine curiosity: ‘Is it true that patients here sometimes forget their appointments halfway through?’ The receptionist smiled knowingly. 'Oh, yes,' she said, leaning in confidentially. 'They say it's because our waiting room is so comfortable—people just fall asleep!' The delivery driver laughed heartily, shaking his head. 'Guess I’ll be extra careful next time I'm running late.'

3. One day, a nurse at One Medical casually mentioned to her colleague, ‘I swear, I just saw a patient leave with three band-aids on their forehead.’ The other nurse laughed, but soon everyone in the office started noticing odd things happening around the clinic. Soon enough, people began seeing patients walking out with band-aids on their elbows, knees, and even toes! Before long, one delivery driver arrived with a full headband of them. When asked why, he said, 'Doc thought it would help my concentration.' Everyone burst into laughter—and realized they were all wearing band-aids somewhere too.

4. One afternoon, as patients were filing out of One Medical, an elderly gentleman paused by the exit sign. He turned to his companion and whispered, 'Did you see that? The sign says “Caution: Doors May Bite.”' His friend nodded solemnly, replying, ‘I saw it too, but don’t worry—doors are vegetarians.’ They both laughed heartily, and the old man exited with a twinkle in his eye.
