Norton Urgent Care

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, as a delivery driver pulled up to Norton Urgent Care, he heard an urgent announcement over the loudspeaker: ‘Attention all patients and staff—your wait time has been officially extended until further notice.’ As the delivery driver approached the entrance, he saw a sign that read: 'Due to high demand for urgent care, please be patient.' He shook his head and muttered, 'Guess I'll just hang out in my truck and listen to some oldies!' And so, amidst the strange announcements and long waits, Norton Urgent Care became a place where everyone found their own way to pass the time—even if it meant enduring a little musical journey.

2. A neighborhood kid was rollerblading past Norton Urgent Care one morning when he noticed something odd. The waiting room lights seemed to flicker on and off in perfect rhythm with his skating. Curious, he kept skating until the last light blinked out—just as he tripped over his own rollerblade and landed flat on his back. A nearby nurse rushed out, asking if he needed help. ‘No,’ he said, dusting himself off, ‘I’m just checking your equipment.’ Everyone laughed, including the kid, who realized it was probably just the fluorescent tubes humming along with his pace.

3. A nurse at Norton Urgent Care overheard a patient complaining: ‘Doc, why does it always take so long here?’ She replied with a smile: ‘Because everyone who comes in needs our urgent care!’ Another day, another patient—a delivery driver—asked impatiently, ‘Doc, how much longer will I wait?’ The nurse grinned and quipped, ‘Just until your package arrives!’

4. At dawn, a jogger passed Norton Urgent Care and swore he saw the clinic’s clock moving backward. Curious, he slowed down and peered inside through the window. The doctor inside looked up, smiled warmly, and said, ‘Morning! Just setting my watch back an hour for daylight savings.’ The jogger nodded sheepishly and continued his run, muttering, ‘Guess I’ll never be late again!’
