About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Hellesdon Medical Practice, patients often noticed something peculiar whenever a new delivery driver arrived after dark. The receptionist’s cat would suddenly leap onto her desk and stare intently at the door, as if sensing someone special had just walked in. One night, a delivery driver brought in a package so heavy he struggled to carry it inside. As soon as he entered, the cat bounded off the desk and rubbed against his legs, purring loudly. The receptionist looked up with a smile and said, 'I think your presence makes our feline friend very happy!'
2. At Hellesdon Medical Practice, early mornings were usually quiet—until one day when a delivery driver arrived with an unusual package. The receptionist’s eyes widened as she unwrapped it: inside was a live goldfish in a tiny aquarium. The doctor examined the fish and declared it healthy, suggesting that maybe the patient had ordered some unusual home remedy online. Soon enough, word spread around town, and neighbors started dropping off their own pets for check-ups. Before long, Hellesdon Medical Practice became known not just for treating humans but also for its quirky goldfish appointments.
3. At Hellesdon Medical Practice, every afternoon around three o’clock, an old man in a tweed suit would appear at reception. He’d ask for ‘the doctor’s office,’ but no one had ever seen him before or since. One day, a confused delivery driver arrived asking if someone named Dr. Tweed was in today. The receptionist just smiled and said, 'He’s always late.' And with that, the old man in the tweed suit appeared from behind her desk, grumbling about his coffee being cold.
4. At Hellesdon Medical Practice, children visiting with their parents often pointed excitedly towards the ceiling. No one else seemed to notice the strange shadowy figure lurking there. Finally, an old lady asked her doctor, ‘Doctor, why do I see that tall man in a suit every time I come here?’ The doctor smiled and replied, ‘That’s just our new receptionist, ma’am.’
