About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to the Center for Surgery and noticed something odd: the parking lot had suddenly filled with tiny surgical masks floating in the air like dandelion seeds. Curious, he leaned out of his truck and watched as one little mask landed on his head. Startled, he knocked it off, only to see another float towards an old lady walking her dog. She gave him a puzzled look before laughing and saying, 'Sonny, you better get inside that place quick!' And so our delivery driver walked into the Center for Surgery—just in time for lunch.

2. One afternoon, an elderly gentleman walked into the Center for Surgery and asked the receptionist if they sold coffee beans. No one could recall such a request before. The receptionist smiled and replied, ‘No, sir, we’re a surgery center.’ The old man nodded thoughtfully, then said, ‘Well, I was hoping to buy some for my granddaughter’s cat—she loves playing with them!’ Everyone burst out laughing, including the staff, who later found out that he regularly brought toys for the kids in the waiting room.

3. One day, a curious neighbor knocked on the door of the Center for Surgery and asked, ‘Why do you always seem so busy with your instruments?’ The doctor smiled and replied, 'Oh, we're not that busy—we're just practicing our instruments!' The neighbor laughed and walked away, shaking his head in disbelief. From then on, whenever anyone saw someone leaving the Center for Surgery carrying an instrument case, they’d smile and whisper, 'Must be another rehearsal.'

4. One night, a delivery driver pulled up to the Center for Surgery and noticed something peculiar. The neon sign above the entrance read ‘Closed,’ but inside, the lights were brightly lit. Curious, he peeked through the window and saw an old man in scrubs frantically trying to fix the sign. Turns out, he was just the janitor who thought it would be funny to pull a prank on everyone. The delivery driver laughed and left with his package, thinking to himself, ‘Another day, another mystery solved.’
