In a report of the examination that Biden had, White House physician Kevin C. O’Connor “fully executes all of his responsibilities without any exemptions or accommodations.”
Biden did not notify the public in advance of the doctor’s visit, and the appointment was not on his calendar, as The New York Post pointed out.
It was only on Wednesday morning, as Biden was leaving the White House and yelling at reporters, that the visit was discovered.

“I’m going to Walter Reed to get my physical,” he said.
During her regular media conference on Wednesday afternoon, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was questioned concerning Biden’s physical condition.
When questioned about Biden’s health and whether or not he ought to take a cognitive test, she remained evasive, according to NBC News.
Jean-Pierre used Biden’s brief remarks on his visit to Walter Reed as justification for why the president was refusing to provide the media with access to his personal physician.
“The president said that they thought that he was too young,” she said. “You heard from the president, he talked about this when he was asked.”
For years, people have been curious about Biden’s age and level of fitness.
When Justice Department special counsel Robert Hur announced last month that he would not press charges against Biden in his case involving sensitive papers due to his advanced age and mental capacity, the president’s health at last garnered significant public attention.
According to Hur’s assessment, Biden had serious memory problems when being interviewed. If he had been charged with mishandling confidential material, receptive juries could have thought of him as an old man with forgetfulness.
