WH Doctor: Trump in Excellent Health
WH Doctor: Trump in Excellent Health
The News
President Trump “remains in exceptional health” after undergoing what he described as a “semiannual physical” at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center on Friday, according to White House physician Sean Barbabella.
Trump received a clean bill of health Friday night after completing advanced imaging, lab tests, and preventive health assessments with a team of specialists who found his cardiac age is a whopping 14 years younger than his actual age of 79.
The president also received several vaccines – including his annual flu shot and a COVID-19 booster – ahead of his trip to the Middle East, Barbabella noted in his memo.
Trump’s blood work was “exceptional,” showing “stable metabolic, hematologic, and cardiac parameters,” Barbabella, a Navy captain, said.
Reactions
“President Trump continues to demonstrate excellent overall health,” the physician said.
“He continues to maintain a demanding daily schedule without restriction. President Donald J.
Trump remains in exceptional health, exhibiting strong cardiovascular, pulmonary, neurological, and physical performance.”
“These evaluations were performed in coordination with leading academic and medical consultants to ensure optimal cardiovascular health and continued wellness,” he added.

The stellar health report comes six months after Barbarella declared in April that the president was “fully fit” to serve as commander in chief and in “excellent cognitive and physical health” – citing his active lifestyle and “frequent victories in golf events.”
Trump, at the time, also bragged to reporters about nailing a cognitive test, while taking a jab at former President Joe Biden, who faced criticism for his significant cognitive decline before leaving the White House.
Barbabella claimed Trump scored a “normal” 30 out of 30.
Three months later, in July, the Republican was diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, a blood circulation issue, after noticing “mild swelling” in his lower legs.
The condition, common among sedentary people, causes a person’s veins to fill with blood, preventing it from returning to the heart.
Medical experts say common treatments for chronic venous insufficiency include wearing compression stockings and increasing exercise to improve blood flow.
Since his 2016 campaign, Trump has released numerous glowing health reports from his doctors to the public.
