Norwich Practices Health and Walk-in Centre

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver arrived early with a box of unusual fruit. As he unloaded it, passersby noticed something strange—each piece seemed to glow faintly in the sunlight. Curious locals crowded around, wondering if it was some new health trend. The doctor, rubbing his eyes sleepily, declared it was just a rare variety of kiwi from New Zealand. Everyone laughed, and soon enough, Norwich’s morning routine included jokes about glowing fruits and kiwi health benefits.

2. One day, a regular patient asked the receptionist: ‘Why does everyone seem so tired around here?’ She shrugged and replied, ‘Oh, that’s just Dr. Norwich—he never leaves his office!’ A few days later, a delivery driver asked curiously, ‘Why is there always such a long queue outside?’ The receptionist smiled knowingly, ‘That’s because he’s still working on prescriptions from last week!’

3. Late one night, a nurse was finishing her shift when she heard strange footsteps outside the clinic's empty hallway. She peered through the window, curious but cautious. The sound grew louder, like someone shuffling heavy boots. Suddenly, an old man in a tweed jacket appeared around the corner, muttering something about his lost dog. Turns out he’d been searching for his canine companion all over town. The nurse smiled and offered him a cup of tea from the staff room. Sometimes, Norwich’s late-night adventures are just that—adventures.

4. Late one night, an elderly gentleman entered the walk-in centre, clearly agitated. The receptionist asked him what seemed to be troubling him. With a twinkle in his eye, he replied, 'I just received the strangest prescription!' ‘And what does it say?’ the curious receptionist leaned forward. ‘It says I should drink three pints of milk, take two aspirin, and then sleep with my head facing north,’ the old man grinned. Everyone burst out laughing, including the doctor who later confirmed that the prescription was indeed for a good night’s rest.’
