California Urgent Care

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, a little boy named Max was waiting with his family in California Urgent Care for hours. Suddenly, he noticed that every time someone mentioned their appointment was overdue, the ceiling fan would spin just a bit faster than usual. Finally, when it was Max’s turn, the doctor asked him how long they’d been waiting. Max whispered, ‘Since the delivery driver said his order was late.’ The doctor laughed and replied, ‘Well, now your wait is officially urgent care!’

2. One morning, an exhausted delivery driver pulled up to California Urgent Care and muttered under his breath, ‘I hope they have coffee here.’ The nurse behind the counter smiled knowingly and replied, ‘We always have coffee—just like we always have patients who forget their sense of urgency!’ A few minutes later, a harried-looking neighbor rushed in, complaining about a mysterious rash. With a twinkle in her eye, the nurse asked, 'Did you try Googling it first?' The neighbor nodded sheepishly. 'And what did it say?' she probed. 'It said I might be dying,' came the reply. Everyone laughed, including the doctor, who promptly diagnosed him with poison ivy.

3. One day, a small dog rushed into California Urgent Care, barking frantically. The receptionist looked puzzled until she noticed the sign above the door blinking ominously: ‘Urgent Care Open Now.’ The little dog ran straight to the counter and jumped up, pointing towards the back with his paw. The vet peeked out from behind the curtain and smiled, saying, 'He’s here for his annual check-up.' Everyone laughed, realizing it was just an overly enthusiastic pet. The end.

4. One afternoon, a regular patient exclaimed, ‘I just saw something strange!’ Everyone looked up from their phones as he continued, ‘There’s a squirrel running around outside, trying to open the door!’ A delivery driver then calmly walked over and said, ‘Hey, little guy, you’re in the wrong state! California doesn’t even have seasons.’ The squirrel paused for a moment, glanced at him, and ran off into the bushes, never to be seen again.
