7 Ways You Know Your Doctor is From Texas

Does your doctor act a little different from other doctors you’ve seen? They may be from Texas. Here is how to tell.

The stethoscope is made from a dead rattle snake carcass. The skin has been rubberized and split in two halfway down the body to make the ear tips.

The examination table is an old bull-riding machine from a defunct Texas Roadhouse Restaurant off Highway 9. She spins it around as she checks different parts of your body.

He tells you to change your diet to BBQ, chicken-fried steak and fried okra.

She reveals that your Body Mass Index (BMI) indicates your body is 90 percent fat which she calls “low risk but cut back on Orange Fantas.”

He won’t stop talking about how Texas leads Oklahoma in the Red River Showdown college football series won-loss tally.

She sings your prescription to you in a country song accompanied by a nurse on steel guitar, crooning “Take Ibuprofen as needed, call if you done bleeded.”

He tells you your X-Ray reveals an unknown blockage “that looks like the Alamo.”
