The White House published President Donald Trump's latest medical report on May 30, 2026, three days after his visit to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for an annual checkup. Dr. Sean Barbabella stated in the three-page report that Trump is in 'excellent health' with strong cardiac, pulmonary, neurological, and overall physical function, concluding that the 79-year-old president is 'fully fit' to serve.
Dr. Barbabella noted that Trump's daily schedule, which includes high-level meetings and physical activity, supports his overall well-being. Trump visited Walter Reed on May 27, marking his third trip to the facility in 13 months. He referred to this visit as a 'six-month physical,' despite it being an annual examination.
After the appointment, Trump reported that 'everything checked out PERFECTLY' upon returning to the White House. The report also highlighted that Trump's health has been under scrutiny, particularly in light of former President Joe Biden's decision to skip cognitive testing during his 2024 physical.
Concerns about Trump's health have included photos showing swollen legs and bruised hands, which are attributed to chronic venous insufficiency diagnosed in July 2025. The report indicated that the swelling has improved since last year, and the bruising is related to frequent handshaking and aspirin use.
Trump's cardiac health was assessed, revealing that his cardiac age is approximately 14 years younger than his chronological age. He weighs 238 pounds, having gained 14 pounds since April 2025, and has a resting heart rate of 73 beats per minute. Preventive counseling was provided, including dietary guidance and recommendations for increased physical activity.
Trump scored a perfect 30 out of 30 on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, which is used to evaluate cognitive function. The report did not indicate any significant changes from previous medical evaluations.
