Lancaster Family Health Center at Beverly

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dusk, when Lancaster Family Health Center usually quiets down, a delivery driver noticed something odd. A familiar face from the neighborhood kept showing up, not for treatment but with a peculiar request—each visit ended with him whispering, ‘Just one more thing.’ Finally curious, the delivery guy followed him inside and found an old teddy bear hidden behind the counter. The man whispered, ‘Doc always said I needed extra hugs.’ Everyone laughed, realizing it was just another Lancaster family story.

2. At closing time one day, a nurse overheard a neighbor asking: ‘Did anyone else just see a ghostly figure leaving through the back door?’ Curious, she peeked outside and saw only an old janitor locking up for the night. Smiling, she thought maybe it was just her imagination playing tricks again. But when she mentioned it later that week to a delivery driver, he nodded knowingly and whispered, 'Oh yeah, that's Mr. Lancaster's ghost—everyone knows him!'

3. At nightfall, while waiting for her parents inside Lancaster Family Health Center, little Sarah pointed excitedly towards the window. ‘Mom,’ she whispered, ‘look who’s walking our dog!’ Suddenly, a familiar face appeared on the other side of the glass door—an elderly delivery driver from the local grocery store. He waved cheerfully and called out, 'Sarah, honey, I thought you were asleep already!' The whole room burst into laughter as everyone realized that maybe it was just another day in Lancaster's quirky neighborhood.

4. In the early morning hours, before the clinic opened, a security guard found an unusual item in the parking lot—a small wooden box with no label or markings. The guard picked it up and noticed that inside was just some old applesauce and a note scribbled on a torn piece of paper: ‘Hope you enjoy our Lancaster family recipe!’ Turned out, it was left there by a neighbor who mistook the clinic for the local bakery.
