On October 10, 2025, President Donald Trump returned to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for additional health tests, including advanced cardiovascular screening, lab work, and imaging. During the visit, he also received his seasonal flu shot and updated COVID‑19 booster. The White House described the visit as part of an “ongoing health maintenance plan,” despite having conducted an earlier physical exam in April.
According to his physician, Dr. Sean Barbabella, President Trump demonstrated “exceptional health”, with robust cardiovascular, pulmonary, neurological, and physical performance. He was said to have a cardiac age approximately 14 years younger than his actual age of 79. Observers noted that this assessment comes amid ongoing scrutiny of his health as the oldest president in U.S. history.
This second physical exam of the year signals a more proactive effort by the White House to address public concern over Trump’s fitness for office. The health update follows a previously disclosed diagnosis of chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) after he experienced leg swelling, a condition considered benign.
