White House Confirms That Biden Attended Meeting With Parkinson's Specialist

 July 10, 2024

On January 17, 2024, President Joe Biden was part of a significant gathering at the White House Residence Clinic that has raised many eyebrows.

Breitbart reported that attendees of this meeting include Biden himself, his physician Dr. Kevin O’Connor, cardiologist Dr. John E. Atwood from Walter Reed, and notably, Dr. Kevin Cannard, a neurologist known for his Parkinson’s disease expertise.

This meeting took place amid various commitments on Biden's schedule, most prominently while he was hosting legislative leaders to discuss funding for Ukraine.

The inclusion of a Parkinson's specialist at this time stirred much speculation concerning the President's health, particularly among his critics and the general public.

The timing of this consultation aligned with traditional procedures surrounding the President’s routine physical exam, but given the specificity of Dr. Cannard's specialty, the situation drew particular attention. The White House, through its spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre, has had to clarify the nature of these engagements.

Annual Physical Exams Shed Light on Biden's Health

Jean-Pierre mentioned in her statement that the President's meeting with Dr. Cannard on January 17 was fundamentally connected to his annual physical exam, a routine that invariably includes consulting a neurologist.

She stated, “Because the date was not mentioned in the question, I want to be clear that the Jan. 17 meeting between Dr. O’Connor and Dr. Cannard was for the President’s physical.”

This routine health assessment of the President has become more scrutinized in recent times. Jean-Pierre reassured the public by affirming, “The findings from each exam have been released to the public.” She corroborated that President Biden's medical evaluations, overseen by Dr. Cannard, have consistently been transparent.

In response to concerns about the frequent visits from Dr. Cannard to the White House, Dr. O'Connor provided further context.

He explained that these visits were part of what he termed “Neurology Clinics at the White House Medical Clinic,” aimed at supporting numerous active-duty members associated with White House operations.

Amid these medical evaluations, the political atmosphere surrounding the health of the President garnered more contention.

The House Oversight Committee voiced suspicions over Dr. O’Connor’s assessments. They feared potential influence from what has been vaguely described as “Biden family's influence peddling schemes,” casting a shadow of doubt over the impartiality of these health reports.

Adding fuel to the fire, former White House doctor and now Rep. Ronny Jackson has been vocal about his concerns regarding Biden’s ability to serve.

Jackson pointed to visible signs of potential health issues, saying, “He’s not fit to be president. He’s not fit to be commander-in-chief and head of state, and everybody can see it. You don’t have to be a doctor to see it, but, yeah, slurring his speech, you know, shuffling when he walks."

Impact of Health Speculations on Political Climate

Jackson further criticized, focusing on physical manifestations he observed: "He’s freezing up now. He’s all rigid, just freezing up. He doesn’t know where he’s at, what he’s doing. He turns around, he just walks off into oblivion." These stark observations by a former medical professional have heightened the discourse around the President's capability to govern effectively.

In conclusion, the meeting on January 17 at the White House has opened up a series of discussions and concerns regarding President Biden's health.

While the administration continues to assure the public of his fitness through routine and transparent medical checks, opposition voices persist in questioning his physical and cognitive suitability for the highest office. The evolving narrative not only impacts the current administration's functionality but also reflects on broader political dynamics and public trust in governmental transparency.
