U.S. President Donald Trump underwent his annual physical on Friday, spending nearly five hours at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. Following the visit, he declared, “I did well,” highlighting his “good heart, good soul, a very good soul,” and sharp cognitive abilities. The 78-year-old, now the oldest president ever sworn into office, said he expected the doctor’s report by Sunday, though past reports have often offered few details.“I was there for a long time,” Trump said. “I think I did very well.” He added that he took a cognitive test: “I don’t know what to tell you other than I got every answer right.” He also remarked, “Biden refused to take it,” referring to his predecessor.

While Trump has often criticized Joe Biden’s fitness, he has kept details about his own health largely private, avoiding traditional presidential transparency. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said a physician’s summary would be released “as soon as we possibly can” and suggested it would be thorough.

After the exam, Trump boarded Air Force One to Florida and told reporters mid-flight that doctors gave him “a little bit” of advice on lifestyle changes, though he didn’t elaborate.The upcoming medical report will be the first since the July assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. At that time, rather than release records, Rep. Ronny Jackson—Trump’s loyal supporter and former White House doctor—issued a memo describing a gunshot wound to Trump’s right ear.

Although Trump said in an August CBS interview that he’d “very gladly” release his medical records, he has yet to do so. His last public health update was a November 2023 letter by Dr. Bruce A. Aronwald, claiming Trump was in “excellent” health but lacking basic information like weight or blood pressure.Trump was previously hospitalized at Walter Reed in 2020 during a serious COVID-19 illness. While his doctor gave a positive assessment, later reports showed he was sicker than publicly acknowledged. A 2019 Walter Reed visit was also not disclosed in advance, breaking White House norms. It was later described as a “planned interim checkup.”

In a 2020 interview, Trump famously repeated five nouns—“Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV”—to showcase his cognitive sharpness. Asked again about the test on Friday, he said, “It’s a pretty well known test,” and added, “Whatever it is, I got every one—I got it all right.”
