I went to school with Mr. Mario.
All he did was snort lines and bang brunettes.
Find a new doctor. He just wants to push Rxs
how do we know he wasn’t already training to be a doctor beforehand and was only a plumber part time?
The pluming job was a way to get him though med schoolw
Tinfoil hat time
Mario (Plumber) has the full name of Mario Mario. Dr. Mario, would be using the surname of Mario after his title, and so is not necessarily the same Mario as Mario Mario. I will propose that Dr. Mario is Mario Marios father.
I’d be more concerned about his abuse of mushrooms.
Exactly, med school is expensive, plumbing pays well.
He was moonlighting as a plumber to pay the bills.
Mario was a blubber since 1983
If the way he was randomly choosing and tossing pills wasn’t a red flag, that’s on you as the patient
Dude was just plumbing to get through medical school, he started classes in 1982. I swear, there’s no shortage of people willing to tear down those who work hard and persevere.
This is an Italian thing, isn’t it? I’m reporting this hate-post and I hope others do and the mods ban you.
This is a blatant smear campaign, Mario worked hard as a plumber to put himself through medical school.
Don’t ask Nintendo, what Mario did in Donkey Kong times
Better call saul
Doctors can plumb if they want to.
I assumed he was doing plumbing to put himself through medical school.
Time isn’t the same for videogames, never saw Reboot???
What for your is a year is like hours for them.
Plumbers make a serious amount of money and med school ain’t cheap. Plus residency pays peanuts.
I made a theory on this awhile ago so here’s my evidence that Dr. Mario isn’t actually Mario
It takes 10-14 years to become a fully licensed doctor but the release dates between “Mario Bros” and “Dr. Mario” is only 7 years a whole 3 years short
And the likelihood that Mario had been going to med school while also saving the princess and all his other random jobs he’s had between 1983 and 1990 (like refereeing professional tennis and boxing oh and a soldier) it’s unlikely he could’ve actually gotten it done in his spare time
So how could Mario possibly be performing any of these medical acts besides performing medical malpractice because something tells me Nintendo doesn’t want their flagship character doing that
the only logical answer…. is Twins!
This explains why Dr. Mario has different moves and stats than Mario in the smash bros series, it’s why he can shoot electricity (a power I don’t think Mario’s been shown he can just do) it also explains why he’s slower and heavier (and it’s not his PHD it’s actually because this Mario bro isn’t as fit as his adventuring brothers)
The Mario bros names are also notoriously known to be Mario Mario and Luigi Mario so him being named “Dr. Mario” means he has to be a third Mario brother and not just some guy who happens to strike a resemblance
And if I’m right? guess what the colors of the 3 Mario bros would be Green, White, and Red. Aka the colors of the Italian Flag
Idk just a fun theory that I like to believe is true
Dr. Mario is singlehandedly responsible for the opioid epidemic. Have you seen how he just throws pills around? He has to be stopped.
Wow so he spends years in medical school doubling as a plumber in his off hours dedicating many years of service to his community and even going far above and beyond handling the overwhelming tirtle and other creature infestations, topples a coup de ta monarchy, and then becomes after all that shit people have the nerve to say they aren’t being treated well?
Also he was way ahead of treatment with mushrooms to treat as therapy – we’re just restarting to see benefits he last few years he was 30 years ahead of his time!
Mario is one of the most accomplished dudes ever. He worked as a plumber while putting himself through med school while practicing to become a professional soccer, golf, basketball, tennis, baseball player. While learning martial arts. While becoming a pro racer. No wonder he is dating a princess and it takes a dinosaur dragon to take this dude on.
He got his degree by watching House and Scrubs and E.R.
I went to Dr Mario to help improve my libido and he sewed goats testicles into my scrotum. After the swelling didn’t come down and it got infected without any increase in Libido, I went to another doctor to have them checked and it turns out a simple google search would have told me that the procedure was fraudulent. I tried reaching Dr Mario again but his phone was no longer in service and the office he was working out of was empty. In the end, I was frauded $15,000 for the procedure and now in crippling debt because of the fallout medical bills.
This would fit nicely on r/banvideogames
Maybe he was a plumber to put himself through med school and he graduated that year
He gave me a pap smear, and I’m a man!
I thought there was something fishy about a doctor that exclusively prescribed pills while doing absolutely nothing else for his patients.
Part of me thinks he was hired to pose as a doctor by the government. Hence the shoving many pills down people to cure viruses, it was a scheme to test the Megavitamins on people with such viruses. What the fuck did I just write
He does a great job on my weekly prostate exam, don’t know what the issue is.
What if he did plumbing as a side gig to pay for medical school?
Ever consider he might have been doing plumbing on the side while going to medical school
So Mario is a r/noctor too?
Dr. Mario was one of my most disappointing game rentals ever as a kid.
Didn’t realize you were an expert on mushroom kingdom laws.
He’s now a doctor at laying pipe.
He was working as a plumber during med school to pay tuition. I thought this was common knowledge
My personal headcanon:
Mario has always been a doctor, sometimes along his career he made a mistake in good faith and someone died. Devastated he quit his profession and started working as a plumber in the family business alongside his brother.
After his first successful adventures he regained faith in himself and could start practicing medicine again. But, in the end, he decided that being a plumber was his real vocation since in the Mushroom Kingdom plumbing was a more effective job if your purpose is to save lives because of the abundance of giant pipes and the scarcity of illnesses.
Actually, canoncially. Mario was a Medical prodigy that stopped a virus outbreak in the mushroom kingdom by developing the “Super Vitamins” that were the only thing capable of treating Fever, Weird and Chill.
After the pandemic was over, he was AWARDED the title of Dr. It was always canon that he did not go to medical school.
He was working as a plumber to support his studies
How do you know Mario wasn’t working as a plumber while simultaneously going to school and 1990 is when he finished? That’d make him incredibly busy, but if he had to do it to make ends meet then that’s impressive, not proof of fraud.
Fuck you, mate! He was doing plumbing work to pay for his medical degree.
Wait, you can only become a practicing doctor when you are at least 7 years old?
He probably had to get a plumbing job to pay for the last year of his degree
He gave me prostate examination
That’s my mom’s best game, maybe after tetris
Dr. Mario (according to some games and manga) is the 3rd brother. He is not the same person as the plumber Mario brother.
Obviously, plumbing was just a day job to pay for tuition while he’d been going to med school since 1983.
he got his medical license legally. since he couldn’t start work for another 7 years however he picked up plumbing to pay the bills.

Perhaps he was working as plumber to pay his way through medical school?
Where does it say he wasn’t training to be a doctor qhen we first saw him?
