About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd on his way to The Dialysis Clinic. Every day around noon, an old man would appear from nowhere and start playing the harmonica outside the entrance. Nobody knew who he was or why he did it. Finally, someone asked the old man what he played for. With a twinkle in his eye, he replied, 'I’m just waiting for my dialysis appointment!' Turned out, everyone had been watching him for months without realizing that he worked there too—just not as a patient.
2. In the middle of the night, an alarm began going off in The Dialysis Clinic's waiting room. No one could figure out what it was or why it kept repeating the same message: 'Your kidneys are telling you to come back soon.' Finally, a delivery driver arrived with some water and snacks for everyone. Turned out, his truck had a similar warning system that kicked in when the engine overheated. After a good laugh, patients decided that maybe their kidneys were just thirsty—and they all went home happy.
3. In the early hours of every Monday morning, a mysterious voice would come over The Dialysis Clinic’s intercom. ‘Today is your lucky day!’ it chirped cheerfully, before cutting out abruptly. One Monday, an elderly a neighbor answered curiously and heard, ‘Today is your lucky day!’ He thought it was some prank, but then realized he hadn’t been called ‘lucky’ in ages. Smiling, he went back to his coffee, only for the intercom to suddenly blurt, ‘And don’t forget to wear clean socks today!’ Everyone burst into laughter.
4. One day, while leaving The Dialysis Clinic, a regular asked aloud: ‘Did anyone else just hear that?’ Another patient, a delivery driver, piped up: ‘I thought I heard someone say “don’t forget your dialysis cap”!’ Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it was just another one of those moments when the mind plays tricks on you.
