Rockland Doctors Surgery

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn, when Rockland Doctors Surgery usually quieted down, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar outside the clinic's window. Curious, he peered closer and saw that the sign on the door read ‘Closed for Annual Inspection’. A regular passing by chuckled, remarking, 'Guess they forgot to tell us!' The delivery driver shook his head, smiling, as he drove off—another day in Rockland, where even doctors take breaks.

2. At midnight, when Rockland Doctors Surgery was supposed to be empty, a delivery driver heard an odd humming sound coming from inside. Curious but cautious, he peeked through the window and saw a light flickering on its own. Suddenly, out of the shadows stepped an old doctor in a tweed jacket, waving him off with a smile. ‘Just my new LED lamp testing itself,’ he said. The delivery driver left, shaking his head, while the doctor went back to reading his favorite mystery novel.

3. At sunset, as Rockland Doctors Surgery closed its doors for the day, a curious neighbor asked aloud: ‘Do you hear that?’ Inside, an elderly receptionist paused and cocked her head. ‘Hear what?’ she replied with a smile. Then they all listened intently—only to realize it was just the sound of the sea from Rockland’s famous lighthouse. The neighbor shook his head and said, “Guess I’m getting too old for city life.” And everyone laughed softly as the sun dipped below the horizon.

4. At dusk, when Rockland Doctors Surgery prepared to lock its doors for the night, a delivery driver found an unusual package in the back of his truck. Curious, he opened it to discover… nothing but a tiny note that read: ‘Don’t worry, everything’s under control.’ The delivery driver shrugged and stuck the note in his pocket. Later that evening, as he was making tea at home, he absent-mindedly pulled out the scrap of paper. Suddenly, his kettle started whistling like never before—just a soft, gentle hum. His wife looked up from her knitting with a smile: 'Everything IS under control,' she said.}
