The president’s doctor has declared Donald Trump to be in outstanding health and completely capable of fulfilling his presidential responsibilities following a comprehensive medical examination conducted this week at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.<\/p>

Dr. Sean Barbabella issued a report late Friday detailing that Trump received extensive testing including heart scans, CT imaging, cancer screenings, and additional preventive evaluations performed by a team of 22 medical specialists.<\/p>

The 79-year-old president commented following Tuesday’s medical visit that all results came back “PERFECTLY.”<\/p>

Medical records show Trump’s weight at 238 pounds (108 kilograms), representing a 14-pound (6 kg) increase since his previous examination in April 2025. While his medical team provided recommendations regarding nutrition, exercise, and weight management, they determined his “cognitive and physical performance are excellent.”<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
