Jon Frankel DDS

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A few years ago, every Wednesday afternoon around 3 PM, an old man with a big brown bag would show up at Jon Frankel DDS. He’d walk straight into the waiting room and place his bag on one of the empty chairs. No appointment, no fuss—just a quiet smile from him and a puzzled look from everyone else. One day, after everyone had grown used to his visits, an excited receptionist asked what was in the mysterious bag. With a twinkle in his eye, the old man opened it to reveal nothing but a stack of old newspapers. ‘Just wanted to make sure you’re keeping up with current events,’ he said, smiling. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned local news, Dr. Frankel would quip, “Ask our favorite regular!”}

2. Last week, a delivery driver pulled up in front of Jon Frankel DDS and asked, ‘Doc, do you know why birds never come here for check-ups?’ The old doc scratched his head and replied, 'No, sonny, I don't.' The driver grinned, 'Because they’re afraid of the bird cage!' Everyone burst out laughing, including the regulars waiting outside.

3. Last week, as dusk settled over downtown, a delivery driver pulled up outside Jon Frankel DDS. The neon sign flickered ominously, casting eerie shadows on the parked van. The delivery driver knocked on the door, but no one answered. Curious, he peered inside through the window and saw Dr. Frankel hard at work—on his latest sculpture of a smiling tooth made from old dental tools. ‘Just another day at Jon Frankel DDS,’ he muttered, shaking his head with a smile.

4. Last month, after hours of silence, Jon Frankel DDS office suddenly filled with the sound of distant laughter. A curious receptionist peered into the waiting room only to see an empty chair swaying gently back and forth. Upon closer inspection, she noticed a small note on the chair: 'Just taking a break—be right back!' Turns out, Dr. Frankel had stepped outside for some fresh air. The next day, everyone brought their own snacks when visiting the dentist.'
