About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Norton Community Medical Associates and noticed something odd—a faint, sweet scent wafting from the building. Curious, he parked his truck and followed the aroma inside. As he stepped further in, he heard soft laughter coming from one of the examination rooms. Peering around the corner, he saw an elderly doctor gently explaining to a patient that her favorite perfume was actually a new deodorant she’d tried. The delivery driver left with a smile, never realizing he had just witnessed medicine’s version of a ‘foggy morning’ moment.
2. One afternoon, an elderly gentleman entered Norton Community Medical Associates with a peculiar expression on his face. As he approached the reception desk, he whispered something into the nurse’s ear that made her giggle softly. She pretended not to hear him and called out cheerfully, ‘Good afternoon! How may I help you today?’ The old man cleared his throat dramatically and said in a stage whisper, ‘I just want to check if my heart is still beating!’ Everyone burst into laughter, including the doctor who came out from behind the curtain, shaking his head and smiling warmly.
3. One night, as Norton Community Medical Associates closed its doors for the day, a strange humming sound echoed through the empty hallway. The receptionist, locking up her desk, paused mid-action, listening intently. Was it just her imagination, or did she hear something moving inside one of the examination rooms? Suddenly, from behind the door came a voice: 'Excuse me, can you help me? I'm stuck!' It turned out that an overeager doctor had accidentally locked himself in during his last patient visit. After a few minutes of frantic pacing and some creative thinking, everyone managed to laugh off the situation—including the poor doctor who ended up with a new nickname: ‘The Locked-In Doc.’
4. One evening, a neighbor walked into Norton Community Medical Associates and asked the receptionist, 'Do you have any idea why my cat keeps meowing at that tree out front?' The receptionist smiled and replied, ‘I’m not sure, but maybe your cat is trying to tell you something.’ The neighbor shrugged it off, saying he’d ask his friend who’s an avid birdwatcher next door. Later that week, another regular came in complaining about his dog barking non-stop. When pressed for details, he admitted, “It only happens when that same tree outside Norton Community Medical Associates is being watered.”
