Biden’s doctor says neurologist came to White House for yearly check-up.

President Biden’s health has been a topic of concern for many Americans, with questions surrounding his cognitive abilities and overall well-being. Recently, his physician revealed that a neurologist specializing in Parkinson’s disease and movement disorders visited the White House as part of his annual physical examinations. This news has sparked further interest in Biden’s health and mental acuity.

In a letter released by White House physician Kevin O’Connor, it was disclosed that Dr. Kevin Cannard, a highly trained and respected neurologist, was chosen for Biden’s annual physicals due to his expertise and wide range of knowledge. The purpose of Dr. Cannard’s visits was to conduct neurological evaluations, not necessarily focused on Parkinson’s disease.

According to the letter, there were no indications of neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, ascending lateral sclerosis, stroke, or cervical myelopathy found during Biden’s physical examination in February. This reiterates the reassuring results of a thorough neurologic exam conducted earlier this year.

While White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre initially declined to disclose details about Dr. Cannard’s visits for privacy reasons, the transparency of President Biden’s health evaluations has been emphasized. Each year, the results of Biden’s annual physical examinations have been made public, demonstrating a commitment to transparency and accountability.

Dr. Kevin Cannard has been the neurology consultant to the White House Medical Unit since 2012, conducting regular examinations for Biden, including the most recent one in February. His expertise in neurology extends to providing care for military personnel stationed at the White House who may experience neurological issues related to their service.

In light of concerns about Biden’s health, particularly following a shaky debate performance against former President Trump, Democrats have expressed varying opinions about his candidacy for re-election. Despite calls for Biden to consider stepping down from the race, he has affirmed his intention to continue his campaign for a second term.

As the public awaits further updates on President Biden’s health and medical evaluations, the recent revelations about the neurologist’s visits to the White House have reignited discussions about the importance of transparency and openness regarding the health of elected officials.
