Dr. Nicole Saphier on Trump’s Annual Physical Results: He ‘Is a Primary Care Doctor’s Dream’
EXCERPT:
SAPHIER: “Yes, and let me tell you, first of all, President Trump is the pillar of health physically and mentally. And I’m not just saying for a 78-year-old, I’m actually saying he is the primary care doctor’s dream. If you look at his physical exam five years ago, he had high cholesterol. He was classified as being obese. He has now dropped his cholesterol by 85 points. That’s almost unheard of. Yes, he had a little help from some medication, but medication alone won’t do that. It has to be diet and exercise. And he’s also dropped about 20 pounds. The president may have a little bit of ways to go in terms of maybe he could drop a few more pounds to get to that healthy BMI, but overwhelmingly his physically and mental fitness seem on point, again, not just for a 78-year-old, but just for someone in general. He seems to be very healthy and he’s keeping up with all of his wellness checks, and really, there were no red flags, no concerns on his physical exam and I’m really happy to see that.”
