About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to VA Clinic and asked himself aloud, ‘Why does everyone here seem so cheerfully gloomy?’ As he stepped inside, an elderly patient waved cheerily while muttering something about his next appointment being delayed again. The delivery driver shook his head with a smile, thinking that maybe it wasn’t just him—maybe everyone in this place was secretly happy but too polite to say so.
2. A delivery driver pulled up to VA Clinic one afternoon, puzzled by an unusual sight on the parking lot. Among the usual boxes and bags, there lay a brightly colored kite, its strings tangled in the wheel of a patient’s shopping cart. The delivery driver chuckled, thinking it must be someone's child who’d accidentally left it here. He picked up the kite, untangled it from the cart, and decided to leave it inside for the next patient. Later that evening, as he was leaving, he saw an old lady waving frantically from her porch. ‘That’s mine!’ she exclaimed with a laugh, pointing at the colorful kite hanging outside VA Clinic. The driver smiled, realizing he had just become part of another urban legend.
3. At dawn, a delivery driver pulled up to VA Clinic, confused by the sign that read ‘Closed for Veteran Appreciation Month’. He scratched his head, wondering if it was a new holiday. Finally, an old man in a wheelchair emerged from the clinic’s door and waved cheerfully at him. The driver smiled, thinking maybe it was some kind of veterans-only health spa. As he drove off, he muttered, ‘Guess I’ll just bring them packages on holidays…’
4. A little boy walked into VA Clinic one day, curious about the strange sign outside that read ‘Veterans Assistance Center.’ He turned to his mom and asked, ‘Mom, why do they help only veterans here?’ The mother smiled and whispered, ‘They don’t really mean just veterans, honey. It’s just a funny way of saying it’s a doctor’s office.’ The little boy nodded thoughtfully and said, ‘Oh, I get it now—like when my teacher says “special needs” but means someone is smart in different ways?’ Everyone laughed as they walked out, glad that mystery was solved.
