Trump’s campaign said the latest results were from a physical exam conducted by Bornstein on September 9.

At 6-foot-3 and 236 pounds, Trump’s Body Mass Index is 29.5, which, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, makes him overweight. Trump also takes a low dose aspirin and a statin, rosuvastatin, used for lowering cholesterol.
In the letter Trump teased on The Dr. Oz Show – before handing it to Oz, Trump asked the studio audience whether he should hand it over, and did so after they cheered – Bornstein said Trump has only been hospitalized once, as a child when he had a routine appendectomy.
The physical occurred on Friday, Sept. 9, 2016 – before Hillary Clinton’s health episode on Sunday – with Trump’s doctor, Dr. Harold N. Bornstein.
The letter from Bornstein is much more straightforward and professional than one he wrote for Trump in December 2015, in which he bizarrely proclaimed that Trump “would be the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency”. His paragraph letter was written in five minutes while a limo sent by Trump waited outside his Manhattan office, NBC News reported.
Earlier this morning, his campaign aides said that he would not be releasing medical records during the taping of an appearance with Dr.
Trump has repeatedly questioned Clinton’s health, suggesting she lacks the “stamina” for the job.
During the taping, Trump told Dr. Oz that he wants to lose about 15 pounds, according to an audience member interviewed by CNN’s MJ Lee.
Are you going to tune in to see Trump on the Dr. Oz Show? He was in good health overall. “It’s insane”, the 70-year-old Trump said of 39-year-old Brady. But Trump told CNBC he takes no “satisfaction” in his opponent’s illness. “She continues to remain healthy and fit to serve as President of the United States”.
He said they shouldn’t have to. I would say it should not be a prescription …
Trump said that he remains opposed to abortion rights.
Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump released a summary Thursday of his latest physical examination and a letter from his doctor saying he is in “excellent physical health”.
It seems as though Donald Trump’s campaign is making an effort to appear more transparent to the public – but is it working? “I don’t know what’s going on”. Trump also said “never has a need to go to a hospital because he’s too healthy”.
