About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the pediatric clinic’s waiting room, a regular noticed something peculiar one morning. Amongst the usual toys and magazines lay an old, dusty book titled ‘The Unseen Friend.’ No one remembered seeing it before. Soon enough, everyone in the waiting room started leafing through the mysterious book, finding themselves drawn into its strange stories. When the doctor finally called out a regular's name, she looked up from the page with a smile and said, 'Guess who my new best friend is?' Turned out it was just another children's storybook left behind by a delivery driver.

2. At dawn, when most clinics are quiet, a delivery driver pulled up to the Pediatric Clinic's loading dock with an unusual package. The box had no label and seemed to hum softly. Curious, one of the nurses opened it gently, revealing a small, squirming penguin that immediately began waddling towards the nearest toy shelf. Before anyone could react, the little bird chirped happily and settled down next to a smiling teddy bear. Turns out, someone’s kid had accidentally shipped their new pet from Antarctica instead of Alaska.

3. At dusk, when most pediatric clinics are emptying out for the day, a delivery driver pulled up to the clinic with an unusual package. The label read simply: ‘For the little ones inside.’ The delivery driver, a friendly older gentleman, knocked gently on the door. A nurse opened it, took one look at the box and burst into laughter. Inside was a giant bag of candy shaped like teddy bears, with a note: 'Happy Halloween from your favorite neighborhood clinic!' Everyone had a good laugh, and the kids in the waiting room got an unexpected treat.

4. In the late afternoon, when parents were picking up their kids from the pediatric clinic, an elderly gentleman approached the reception desk with a puzzled expression on his face. ‘Excuse me,’ he said, ‘I believe I’ve brought my medicine here last week.’ The receptionist smiled and replied gently, ‘Sir, you’re at the right place, but this is a pediatric clinic—maybe it’s your pharmacy?’ The old man nodded, embarrassed, and walked out, muttering something about forgetting where he parked his car.
