WASHINGTON – Former President Donald Trump is in “excellent health” and “fully fit” to carry out his duties, according to a report released by his physician on Thursday. The White House published the results of Trump’s annual physical examination, providing a detailed overview of his health status.

The report, released by Dr. Sean Conley, Trump’s personal physician, detailed various aspects of the former president's health, including vital signs, laboratory results, and a physical examination. While specific figures were included, the overall assessment emphasized Trump's robust condition.

Dr. Conley stated that Trump's cognitive abilities remain sharp and that he exhibits a high level of energy. The report noted that Trump continues to take certain medications, but these do not significantly impact his ability to perform his responsibilities. The examination included standard assessments of heart, lungs, and other major organ systems, all of which were reported as normal.

This annual checkup is a long-standing tradition for U.S. presidents, intended to ensure they are physically and mentally capable of handling the demands of the office. The release of the report aims to provide transparency regarding the health of former leaders and reassure the public about their well-being. While the report focused on Trump's current health, it did not delve into any past medical history beyond what has already been publicly disclosed.

The White House’s decision to release the report underscores the importance placed on presidential health and provides a snapshot of Trump’s physical condition at this time. The full report is available on the White House website.
