US President Donald Trump recently emerged from a six-month physical examination at Walter Reed Military Medical Center and declared on TruthSocial that “everything checked out PERFECTLY. Thank you to the great Doctors and Staff!”
However, doctors outside the White House’s fold have expressed their skepticism and alleged that they are not being candid about the president’s health condition.
Medical critics have concerns after Donald Trump declared a recent check-up as “perfect”
In a previous memorandum sent to press secretary Karoline Leavitt, Dr. Sean Barbabella, White House physician, stated, “President Trump exhibits excellent cognitive and physical health and is fully fit to execute the duties of the Commander-in-Chief and Head of State.”
However, speculation is high after Trump underwent three hospital visits in 13 months. A physician weighed in on the public scrutiny around the president’s health, saying, “When a president undergoes repeated examinations, people naturally want detailed information. The issue is not necessarily what the tests show, but whether enough information is being released to reassure the public.”
He told Radar that a dementia diagnosis aptly explains the president’s recent factual mix-ups, saying, “Transparency is often the best way to address those concerns, but the way he has been caught out appearing to nap at meetings and the way he constantly fudges multi-syllable words are setting alarm bells ringing; he could be riddled with dementia.”
Dr. Jonathan Reiner, a cardiologist who previously served Dick Cheney, has challenged the White House’s statement that explains his bruised hands as a result of frequent handshakes combined with aspirin use. Reiner said. “If you’re taking too much aspirin, one would likely take less aspirin. So that explanation doesn’t make a lot of sense to me.”
The White House has previously downplayed questions about Trump’s bruised hands, factual lapses, slurred speech, swollen ankles, and micro-naps.
