About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In the dead of night, when most clinics were closed, an odd habit developed among Portland’s ER staff. A regular would arrive every few hours, always wearing a surgical mask and carrying a large bag. He’d check in quickly, then leave without seeing anyone else. Rumors spread that he was picking up mysterious deliveries for the hospital. It turned out he was just a delivery driver bringing in fresh coffee for the weary nurses and doctors. Every morning, after his rounds, someone from the cafeteria would thank him warmly, calling him ‘our secret hero.’
2. At midnight, when ER 24/7 Portland was quiet as ever, a regular asked with a twinkle in his eye: ‘Do you guys keep a secret stash of cookies around here?’ The night nurse laughed and winked back, ‘We might just have a few for our late-night heroes!’ A delivery driver chimed in, ‘Finally, someplace that understands my sugar cravings!’ And so, amidst the hum of machines and soft glow of monitors, ER 24/7 Portland became known not only for its emergency care but also for its legendary midnight cookie stash.
3. At dawn one morning, a delivery driver pulled up to ER 24/7 Portland and asked, ‘Do you take insurance for ghost deliveries?’ The night nurse blinked sleepily but smiled. ‘We accept all forms of payment,’ she said with a twinkle in her eye. The driver nodded solemnly, handed over an envelope, and whispered, ‘Cash only.’
4. At dawn one morning, a delivery driver pulled up to ER 24/7 Portland with a box marked ‘Top Secret.’ The nurse on duty raised an eyebrow but shrugged it off, thinking it must be some new medical equipment. After opening the box, she found a cardboard cutout of a smiling doctor holding a stethoscope. The note inside read: 'For our busy staff—now you can diagnose yourself!' Everyone laughed, and from that day on, the clinic had a new decoration for the waiting room.
