About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One night, while driving home from work, a delivery driver noticed an odd smell coming from Saltzer Health Urgent Care. At first, he thought it might be something burning, but as he got closer, he realized it smelled like freshly baked cookies. Curious, he parked his truck and approached the entrance. Inside, everything seemed normal—until he heard soft laughter and saw a small sign reading ‘Free Cookies for Patients.’ Turning around, he found himself face-to-face with a smiling nurse who explained, ‘It’s our little way of making patients feel better!’ The delivery driver walked away that night with a smile on his face—and maybe even a cookie or two.
2. A nurse on her first night shift at Saltzer Health Urgent Care overheard a worried patient say, ‘Doc, I’m pretty sure my arm grew two inches overnight!’ The nurse discreetly looked around and whispered back, ‘Don’t worry, sir. That’s probably just your sleeve shrinking.’ The patient nodded gratefully, and soon they were both laughing so hard that a delivery driver waiting outside heard them and popped his head in, asking if everything was okay.
3. In the early morning hours, a delivery driver pulled up to Saltzer Health Urgent Care with a full truck of supplies. As he unloaded boxes onto the back porch, he spied something peculiar—a small wooden box, wrapped in brown paper and tied with twine, sitting innocently among the medical equipment. Curious, the driver picked it up and noticed a note scribbled on the side: ‘For Dr. Smith’s private collection.’ Inside was an old, rusty key and a handwritten card reading, ‘Use only if urgent care is closed.’ The next day, everyone in town saw a sign outside: “Urgent Care Now Open 24/7—Except When We’re Not.”
4. Late one night, a delivery driver stopped by Saltzer Health Urgent Care for directions. Pointing to the empty parking lot, someone asked: ‘Is it always so quiet around here?’ ‘Usually,’ replied another staff member with a smile, ‘but tonight our robot receptionist is on duty.’ The delivery driver gave them an odd look and then noticed the lifeless robot staring blankly from behind the counter. Realizing he was probably the only person there besides that poor machine, he cracked a nervous laugh. ‘Guess I’ll just wait then,’ he said, settling into a chair.
