The White House has released the results of President Donald Trump’s Friday recent medical screening.
On Friday, Trump, 79, visited Walter Reed Medical Center for what the White House described as a “routine check-up,” making it the second “routine” visit Trump has made to the medical center in six months.
Dr Sean Barbabella, Trump’s physician, sent a report to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt saying that the president “successfully completed” his appointment, and confirmed the visit was part of “his ongoing health maintenance plan.
The doctor said the visit entailed “advanced imaging, laboratory testing, and preventative health assessments” conducted by various specialists.
Trump was also given a flu shot and an updated COVID-19 booster vaccination ahead of his upcoming trip to the Middle East.
“President Trump continues to demonstrate excellent overall health. His cardiac age — a validated measure of cardiovascular vitality via ECG — was found to be approximately 14 years younger than his chronological age,” the doctor said. “He continues to maintain a demanding daily schedule without restriction.”
A summary at the end of the memo also noted that Trump displayed strong “neurological and physical performance.”
Trump is the oldest person ever to be inaugurated as president. If Trump serves all four years of his second term, he will leave office as the oldest man to ever serve in the presidency.
