White House Doctor Declares Trump in Exceptional Health After Walter Reed Follow-Up

The memo follows a three-hour Walter Reed evaluation viewed as a pre-travel clearance.

Overview

  • White House physician Navy Capt. Sean Barbabella said the president remains in exceptional health with strong cardiovascular, pulmonary, neurological and physical performance.
  • The visit at Walter Reed lasted roughly three hours with advanced imaging, lab work and preventive assessments as a scheduled follow-up ahead of upcoming overseas travel.
  • Trump, 79, received his yearly flu shot and a COVID-19 booster during the evaluation.
  • Barbabella reported the president’s cardiac age to be about 14 years younger than his chronological age.
  • Earlier disclosures noted an April exam finding him fully fit and a July diagnosis of chronic venous insufficiency after leg swelling, as officials rebutted viral health rumors.
