President Donald Trump underwent his first comprehensive medical examination since returning to the White House, marking a significant milestone in his second presidential term.
According to Daily Mail, the 78-year-old president achieved a perfect score of 30 out of 30 on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment during his annual physical at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center on Friday.
Dr. Sean Barbabella, the president's physician, released a detailed medical report highlighting Trump's overall health condition. The examination, which lasted nearly five hours, involved consultations with fourteen specialty medical professionals who conducted various diagnostic and laboratory tests.
Presidential health assessment reveals vital statistics
Trump's physical examination showed his blood pressure at 128/74 mmHg and a resting heart rate of 62 beats per minute. The president, measuring 75 inches in height and weighing 224 pounds, maintains an active lifestyle that includes regular golf activities.
The medical team noted that all recommended vaccinations, including those required for travel, are current. Trump currently takes four medications: Rosuvastatin and Ezetimibe for cholesterol management, Aspirin, and Mometasone cream for a skin condition.
Dr. Barbabella, who brings extensive combat trauma experience from service in Afghanistan and Iraq, provided a comprehensive evaluation of the president's health status.
Cognitive performance and assassination attempt aftermath
The Montreal Cognitive Assessment results matched Trump's previous performance from January 2018, when he also achieved a perfect score under then-White House physician Dr. Ronny Jackson.
Following the examination, Trump expressed confidence in his performance. He spoke to reporters while traveling to Florida, emphasizing his satisfaction with the results.
The medical report also addressed the lingering effects of last July's assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. The only visible reminder of the incident is scarring on the president's right ear from a gunshot wound.
White House physician confirms presidential fitness
Dr. Barbabella offered this assessment of the president's health status:
President Trump exhibits excellent cognitive and physical health and is fully fit to execute the duties of the Commander-in-Chief and Head of State. His active lifestyle continues to contribute significantly to his well-being. President Trump remains in excellent health, exhibiting robust cardiac, pulmonary, neurological, and general physical function.
The examination results carry particular significance as Trump made history in January by becoming the oldest person ever sworn in as president of the United States. The comprehensive evaluation included detailed cardiac, neurological, and general physical assessments.
The medical team conducted the examination with particular attention to age-related health concerns, given Trump's position as the nation's oldest serving president.
Medical milestone marks presidential tenure
Trump's latest physical examination represents a crucial health assessment during his second term as Commander-in-Chief. The extensive five-hour examination at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center provided a thorough evaluation of his physical and cognitive capabilities. The president received a clean bill of health from his new physician, Dr. Sean Barbabella, who documented normal results across all major health indicators. Following the examination, Trump continued his regular schedule, including a weekend visit to Mar-a-Lago, where he maintained his active lifestyle with a round of golf on Sunday.
