President Donald Trump is scheduled to see doctors for a medical and dental checkup this month his fourth publicized visit to medical experts since returning to office in what the White House describes as an annual physical and regular preventive care.
Trump, who turns 80 next month and was the oldest person elected U.S. president, will see his doctors at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center on May 26, the White House said in a brief statement Monday evening.
The president's health has been the subject of tremendous scrutiny, so much so that Trump said he regretted getting imaging on his heart and abdomen last year because it raised public questions about his health.
Trump who has been frequently critical of former President Joe Biden for age-related health and fitness issues has recently remarked how good he feels despite his years. Earlier Monday, Trump that he feels the same as he did 50 years ago. I feel literally the same, he said at an Oval Office event. I dont know why. Its not because I eat the best foods. Last week, he joked about his exercise regimen, saying that he works out like about one minute a day, max.

(23,950 posts)Im 68, in good health for my age, and see my doctor at least four times a year for medication monitoring and other issues.
But for Trump, its the reason for his visits that could be concerning, given his visible symptoms.

(171,901 posts)It was an AP wire service article, where the outlet selected one of AP's ever-changing headlines to use to do what they all did to tarnish Biden for 4 years, and apply that same age-shaming standard to 45.

(37,093 posts)and with a chronic illness I most certainly have more than one doctor visit a year. Primary, rheumatology, hematology once per year due to a past incident (a random blood clot attributed to birth control when younger), and then as needed with others. I would be surprised if he only had a visit or two a year.
He has some nerve criticizing Biden, though, given that he clearly has his own issues even if we aren't privy to the details.
