Donald Trump will return to Walter Reed Medical Centre on Tuesday for what aides describe as a routine medical and dental check-up, marking the 79-year-old President's third hospital visit in 13 months and sharpening public and professional scrutiny of his health and fitness for office.
The latest trip follows an annual physical at Walter Reed in April 2025 and a 'scheduled follow-up' in October, according to The Washington Post. Since then, the president has repeatedly appeared in public with visible bruises and red marks on his skin, including on his neck, hands and ankles, feeding a steady churn of speculation that the White House has struggled to put to rest.
