The White House has made public the results of President Donald Trump's most recent physical examination, with his personal physician declaring the president to be in "excellent health." The report, released on Tuesday, noted that Trump had gained weight since his last checkup but that all major tests, including neurological and cardiac evaluations, returned results described as "normal."
Dr. Sean Conley, the president's physician, stated that Trump's overall health remained strong for a man of his age. The exam, conducted at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, included a full battery of tests. According to the summary, Trump's weight now stands at 243 pounds, up from 239 pounds in his previous physical. His blood pressure was recorded at 121 over 79, which falls within a healthy range. The report also highlighted that the president's cognitive screening was normal, and his heart function showed no irregularities.
The physical exam has become a routine event during Trump's time in office, often drawing attention due to his age and lifestyle habits. Trump, who is 74, does not drink alcohol or smoke, but he has been known for a diet heavy in fast food and red meat. The doctor's note did not specify any new medications or treatments, and it concluded that Trump remains fit to carry out his duties as commander in chief. Critics and supporters alike will likely scrutinize the findings, but the official word from the White House medical team is that the president is in good shape.
