Dr. Oz Gets One Page Review of Trump's Medical Condition



UPDATE 9/14/16 1 PM: Donald Trump shared records of his physical exam with Dr. Oz during a show taping Wednesday. The interview is scheduled to air Thursday.

The results shared by the GOP nominee include information about Trump's gastrointestinal health and his prostate and bladder health, according to Oz.


The physical exam was conducted by Dr. Harold Bornstein, Trump's physician who previously claimed Trump would be the "healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency."

UPDATE 9/14/16 10AM:  The results of Donald Trump’s recent medical exam won’t be revealed when the GOP presidential nominee appears on “The Dr. Oz Show” this week.

The Hill is reporting Television personality Mehmet Oz had said he would be releasing the results of Trump’s recent physical when the businessman appears on his show Thursday.

But Trump campaign aides said the interview will instead focus on general health issues like the importance of an active lifestyle and positive thinking.

Donald Trump decided to respond to criticism that he's released little information about his health by undergoing a medical exam last week and having the results revealed on The Dr. Oz Show tomorrow (September 15th).

Fox News reports that Trump won't be given the results until the show, after Dr. Mehmet Oz analyzes them.

However, Oz said in a radio interview with Fox's Brian Kilmeade that there would be limitation on what he'd reveal and ask about, saying, "If [Trump] puts limitations, I'll acknowledge them."

He explained that he wouldn't, quote, "ask him a question he doesn't want to have answered."

Trump had previously only released a statement from his doctor that hailed his, quote, "extraordinary" stamina and physical strength, and said he'd be the healthiest person ever elected president.

While Hillary Clinton released more information from her doctor, she hasn't released her medical records, which many previous presidential candidates have done. She's also been criticized in recent days for not revealing that she was diagnosed with pneumonia on Friday until hours after she left the 9/11 memorial service early on Sunday and woozily stumbled as she was helped into a vehicle.
