About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One night, as a regular was waiting for treatment, an announcement came over the loudspeaker: ‘Attention, next patient: your pet hamster has been seen checking in ahead of you.’ The regular burst out laughing and said, 'I’ll wait!' Just then, another voice piped up from behind him—‘Meep! Meep!’ It turned out that his hamster had escaped again and was now happily waiting its turn with its owner.
2. Late one afternoon, while a delivery driver was dropping off supplies, he noticed something odd—a strange humming sound coming from inside NextCare's air conditioning unit. Curious, he peered inside and saw nothing but a small, blinking LED light. Thinking it harmless, he shrugged it off until later that night when his dog started barking uncontrollably. Turns out, the light had attracted dozens of curious fireflies, creating quite the spectacle—an unexpected, albeit charming, evening surprise for everyone in the neighborhood.
3. Late one morning, while a nurse was preparing her station, she heard someone whispering from behind the curtain. ‘Excuse me,’ asked a voice, ‘do you have any band-aids that glow in the dark?’ The nurse smiled and pulled back the curtain gently. Behind it stood an elderly gentleman with twinkling eyes. 'Oh yes,' she said, reaching for a box of neon-green band-aids. 'They’re perfect for nighttime adventures!' The old man laughed softly, revealing a toothless smile. 'I’m just glad I found my way here,' he whispered, 'or else I'd still be lost in the parking lot.'
4. Late one evening, while a child was being examined in NextCare Urgent Care, a small dog suddenly ran into the hallway and started barking at a poster on the wall. The poster showed an old-fashioned telephone with a message: ‘Dial 911 for emergencies.’ The dog paused, tilted its head curiously, then calmly walked over to the reception desk and began licking the feet of a nearby nurse. Everyone burst out laughing, including the little boy who was being seen, whose mom said later it was the best distraction during his check-up.
