About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At ZoomCare one night, an exhausted delivery driver checked in for treatment. After the nurse called everyone’s attention with a dramatic announcement over the PA, no one could forget their visit—ever again. Then, amidst total silence, a little old lady from the waiting room stood up and whispered, ‘Excuse me, but I think you’ve got the wrong guy.’ Turns out, it was just her husband snoring after his flu shot. Everyone burst into laughter, and the delivery driver left feeling relieved—and slightly embarrassed.

2. In the early hours of morning, a sleep-deprived nurse was closing up ZoomCare when she heard a soft knock on the door. 'Just checking if you’re open,' said a voice from outside. The nurse peered through the window and saw no one. She opened the door slightly, and an exhausted-looking delivery driver whispered, ‘Could I get some more coffee? Mine’s almost gone.’ She smiled and nodded, handing him a fresh cup with a wink. ‘Welcome back anytime,’ she said, and closed the door with a warm smile.

3. In the wee hours, a curious sound like distant laughter echoed through ZoomCare’s empty corridors. A late-night technician, adjusting equipment, stopped mid-task, straining to hear if it was real or just his imagination. The laughter grew louder, until it became clear—it was coming from the staff kitchen. Someone had left the fridge door ajar, and an old carton of milk was playing tricks on the tech's tired ears. With a smile, he fixed the fridge and returned to work, whistling a tune.

4. At ZoomCare one night, a tired child with big eyes peered into the waiting room. The receptionist smiled warmly, but then noticed that the little girl kept glancing towards the closed doors as if she expected someone—or something—to emerge. Finally, an older gentleman in a plaid shirt walked out of one of the rooms and asked gently, ‘Are you lost, sweetie?’ The girl nodded shyly, pointed to her mom who was being called back, then giggled and said, “I thought Dr. Zoom would come!” Everyone in the waiting room burst into laughter, including the receptionist, who whispered, “Must be a new patient.”
