About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Providence Gateway Family Medicine with an unusual package. As he unloaded it, he noticed something odd inside—a small wooden box labeled ‘Free Samples’. Curious, one of the nurses opened the box and found only a note that read: 'Try our new flavor—Chocolate-Covered Aspirin!' Inside were tiny chocolate candies shaped like little pills. Everyone had a good laugh, especially when they realized who might’ve mistakenly sent them.
2. One day, while stocking shelves in Providence Gateway Family Medicine, a young nurse noticed something odd in one of the supply cabinets—a tiny violin wrapped in old newspaper from Vienna. She showed it to her colleagues, and soon enough, everyone was curious. Turns out, it belonged to an elderly delivery driver who’d left it years ago. The staff decided to hold a small concert, where they played that little violin during their breaks. Now, whenever someone hears beautiful music coming from the clinic’s hallway, they know it’s just Providence Gateway’s secret musical tradition—all thanks to a nosy nurse and a forgotten instrument.
3. One afternoon, as patients were filing out of Providence Gateway Family Medicine, someone heard an announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention please—if you’ve been waiting for your appointment since before the Civil War, it’s probably canceled.’ A delivery driver leaned over and whispered to his colleague, ‘I waited here longer than that!’ Just then, a friendly neighbor walked in and said cheerfully, ‘Don’t worry, I was born after the war ended.’ Everyone burst into laughter, realizing how absurd the message had been.
4. One evening, after leaving Providence Gateway Family Medicine, a patient remarked to his neighbor, ‘I swear, every time I come here, that receptionist gets younger!’ His neighbor laughed and replied, ‘You must be seeing things! They’ve been hiring new staff lately.’ The next day, the patient overheard another conversation in the waiting room: “Did you hear? That young receptionist from last week is actually an intern!” Back home, he realized maybe it was just time playing tricks on him.
