Hearing This Six-Word Phrase Is a Huge Red Flag for Doctors
If you want to freak out your doctor, just use these six words at your next appointment . . .
An E.R. doctor in Jacksonville, Florida is trending after he revealed the six-word phrase he sees as a huge red flag, specifically when a GUY says it.
Whenever he hears it, he assumes something VERY serious is going on with the man's health "until proven otherwise."
So what's the phrase? The six words that worry him are . . . "My wife made me come in."
It's a red flag because men are more likely to ignore health issues or tough it out instead of seeing a doctor. So if your wife MADE you come in, there's a good chance of a real health issue there.
Other doctors replied in the comments with more phrases they see as red flags, and there's a similar one for women: It's a red flag if she says anything like, "I didn't want to waste your time with this, BUT . . ."
