About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the dimly lit hallway of Brotman Baty Surgery Pavilion, a delivery driver grumbled under his breath, ‘I’ve seen everything here—except ghosts.’ Finally, he stopped in front of an old elevator and heard someone whispering from inside: 'Next stop… Heaven's Waiting Room?' The driver shook his head and pushed the button, emerging into the empty surgery lounge just as a nurse asked him, 'Did you bring the usual?’

2. In the dimly lit hallway of Brotman Baty Surgery Pavilion, an exhausted nurse muttered under her breath, ‘Why does every patient today insist on calling their appendix “the little friend”?’ Just then, a sleep-deprived doctor yawned and replied, ‘Because it’s not just any old appendix—it’s the one that keeps them up at night, whispering sweet nothings.’ The nurse smiled wearily, realizing that in this hospital, even medical mysteries had a way of making patients feel special.

3. In the dimly lit hallway of Brotman Baty Surgery Pavilion, a small child pointed excitedly and whispered, ‘Mom, look! It’s dancing!’ Everyone turned to see the ceiling tiles swaying gently in perfect rhythm. As they watched, an elderly nurse chuckled and said, 'Oh those tiles always do that when the air conditioning kicks on.' A delivery driver shook his head and muttered, 'Guess I’ll never be a believer in ghosts!' The mom smiled, took her kid’s hand, and replied softly, 'Maybe it’s just another quirky thing about our hospital.'

4. In the dimly lit hallway of Brotman Baty Surgery Pavilion, a doctor whispered to himself, ‘I’m pretty sure that IV bag just winked at me.’ As he turned around, the IV bag seemed to nod back with a mischievous glint. Smiling to himself, the doctor muttered, 'Guess I’ll never be able to prove it,' and continued down the hall, whistling a tune. Later that night, his colleague found him dozing off during surgery—with an empty IV bag dangling from his stethoscope.
