Trump's Health Evaluated as Cardiologist Seeks More Medical Transparency
US President Donald Trump, who turned 80 in June, underwent a comprehensive medical evaluation in May involving 22 specialists, including heart imaging and cancer screenings. The White House physician, Dr. Sean Barbabella, reported Trump is in "excellent health," fully fit to serve, and scored 30 out of 30 on a cognitive test. Trump was diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency in 2025, causing leg swelling. Cardiologist Dr. Jonathan Reiner questioned the limited public disclosure of some health details, citing visible bruising and leg swelling, and called for more transparency.
