About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unusually quiet morning at Medical Center Northeast when a delivery driver noticed something strange. The usually bustling hallway outside the waiting room was eerily empty. As he approached the entrance, he heard a soft humming sound coming from inside. Curious, he peeked through the door and saw an elderly janitor humming softly while polishing the reception desk. ‘What’s going on here?’ asked the delivery driver. The janitor smiled and replied, “Oh, I’m just making sure everything is shipshape for our next patient—a regular who always comes in with his coffee.’

2. ‘Doc, I’m here for my annual check-up,’ said a regular patient, ‘but could you also check why my car won’t start?’ The doctor looked puzzled and replied, 'Well, let's see...' He checked the patient's pulse, then walked outside to inspect the car. After a moment he declared, 'Your engine needs more oil than your arteries!' The patient laughed heartily, glad for the friendly advice.

3. At Medical Center Northeast, patients began noticing something peculiar: every Wednesday afternoon, a mysterious van would pull up outside just as the waiting room emptied. One day, an elderly gentleman walked into the emptying waiting room and asked curiously, ‘Is that van always here on Wednesdays?’ A nurse smiled and replied, ‘Oh yes, it’s our weekly supply of donuts for staff morale!’ The old man nodded wisely, ‘Ah, now I understand why they’re so cheerful around here.’

4. It was an oddly sunny day in autumn when a delivery driver pulled up to Medical Center Northeast with a box marked ‘Top Secret.’ As he approached the reception desk, the nurse raised an eyebrow and asked, 'Top secret, huh? What’s inside?' The delivery driver grinned sheepishly and replied, 'Just some new software for the MRI machine.' Turns out it was just a CD case full of old Halloween decorations from the staff's neighbors.
