About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. It was an unusually quiet morning when a delivery driver pulled up to the South Campus of OKC County Health Department. The sun was just peeking over the horizon, casting eerie shadows across the usually bustling parking lot. As he approached the entrance, the delivery driver noticed an old lady waving frantically from behind the reception desk. ‘Excuse me,’ she whispered, pointing towards a nearby room, “could you please bring that package to Dr. Smith? She’s been waiting for it since last week.’ With a puzzled look, the driver carried on his way and soon found himself in a quirky office filled with antique medical equipment and strange posters. Finally, he knocked gently on the door marked 'Dr. Smith'. A sleepy voice replied: 'Come in, dear!' Turns out, Dr. Smith was their friendly neighborhood librarian who occasionally helped out at the health department.
2. A little girl visiting her grandmother pointed excitedly one day, whispering, 'Grandma, what's that strange machine doing?' No one noticed until she asked. Grandma looked over and saw nothing unusual, but then realized what the child meant—a large printer was quietly churning out colorful certificates. Turns out, it was printing complimentary pregnancy tests for expectant mothers who couldn’t afford them. Grandma smiled warmly, saying, ‘That’s our secret, sweetheart—we help those in need here.’
3. A delivery driver arrived early one morning with a box marked ‘County Health Department Supplies.’ As he unloaded crates onto the loading dock, something unusual caught his eye—a small, dusty jar labeled simply, ‘Antique Cures.’ Curious, he opened it and found an old piece of paper with handwritten instructions for treating everything from colds to heartburn. He chuckled, thinking it was just some quirky relic until a regular patient mentioned that her great-grandma used to swear by those remedies. The delivery driver shrugged, shook his head, and drove off—leaving behind a little bit of local lore for the health department’s curious staff.
4. Late one night, a delivery driver approached the dimly lit building and asked himself aloud, "What on earth is this place doing here?" As he walked inside, he heard a soft hum coming from an empty examination room. Curious, he peeked in and saw a nurse dozing off with her head resting on a clipboard. The delivery driver quietly cleared his throat, causing her to jump awake. ‘I thought I was the only one who knew about this secret health center,’ she whispered, rubbing her eyes. They both shared a laugh, realizing they were just neighbors working late hours.
