Newark, Delaware, United States--Hidden away in the Apex Medical Center in Newark, Delaware, United States, rests a giant medical bag with a stethoscope, just like they used to carry door to door; it stands about 20 feet high and approximately 15 feet across, making it the World’s Largest Doctor’s Bag Monument, according o the WORLD RECORD ACADEMY.
"This monument to the ye olden days of medicinal practice sits next to the entrance of the Apex Medical Center. Though there is no indication around it that it is the world’s largest, I have a hard time imagining anyone has created a larger one. If they have, please let me know and I will retract such blasphemy as I have inflicted from my blog," The Offbeat Path says.
"So break yourself away from that computer, put down that X-Box controller, get out and use the smartphone to take pictures of you and loved ones in Newark!

"Hidden away in a medical center in Newark, Delaware rests a medical bag, just like they used to carry door to door," the Road Trippers says.
"Protruding out of the top of the bag is a stethoscope. And oh yeah, it stands about 20 feet high and approximately 15 feet across, making it the Worlds largest doctor's bag. I certainly wouldn't wanna be receiving any proctology exams from the doctor carrying that!"
"On the campus of a medical center stands a sculpure of a giant doctor's bag several feet high and wide with an equally large stethoscope slung across it," the Fotospot.com says.
"The more intrepid visitors can use the stethoscope as leverage to climb to the top of the bag and snap a photo for posterity."
"The bag is next to a little nondescript medical office building off of the highway. In fact, when we finally found it (on the opposite side of the road), we had a heck of a time turning around and getting back to it. But it was totally worth it. This is the first giant roadside attraction that the Roadchix took their little Roadchicklets together," the
Roadchix.com says.
"We snapped lots of photos of the chicklets enjoying their first giant attraction. To be honest, I think we liked it more than them, but you're never too young to start!"
"Did you know doctors used to come visit families door to door? They would even take payments such as eggs, chickens, or even a freshly baked pie. Well those days are long gone, but can be remembered...kinda!" the
Outta The Way says.

"At the Apex Medical Center in Newark, Delaware, a gigantic doctor's bag stands in front of a building as a reminder of days gone by," the Only In Your State says.
"Many people don't expect to see this replica of a relic on the side of the road, and people often stop and get out to take a picture of themselves by the oversized stethoscope."
"Not too long ago, it was common for doctors to make house calls. They would visit families in the comfort of their homes and administer medicine," the Vacation Idea says.
"It was also common for doctors to be paid with commodities such as chickens, eggs, and even freshly baked pies. As a way of commemorating the many medical professionals who helped people, a large sculpture was installed on the lawn of one of Newark’s medical centers: a large medical bag with a stethoscope falling over it.
"The sculpture is over twenty feet high and fifteen feet wide, making it the largest doctor’s bag in the world. It’s a unique site to visit and can make for some interesting photographs to show of your trip to Newark."
