Trump in ‘excellent health’ after latest checkup, president’s physician says

The memo also cited a 30 out of 30 cognitive score and recommended diet, exercise and continued weight loss.

  • On Friday, the White House released a memo from Dr. Sean Barbabella stating President Donald Trump is in "excellent health" following his physical exam at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center on Tuesday.
  • This visit marked Trump's third medical checkup in 13 months at the facility. Last year, the White House revealed he had chronic venous insufficiency, a condition causing leg swelling.
  • Barbabella reported Trump's weight as 238 pounds with a resting heart rate of 73 beats per minute and a perfect cognitive score of 30 out of 30.
  • During the Tuesday exam, "Preventive counseling was provided," including guidance on diet, aspirin, and increased physical activity, while Barbabella noted "slight lower leg swelling with improvement from last year."
  • Trump, who turns 80 in June, remains "fully fit to carry out all duties of the Commander-in-Chief," according to the physician's memo released three days after the examination.
