PHILADELPHIA — John Fetterman’s primary care physician said he continues to recover well from his stroke after an examination Friday, saying the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate “has no work restrictions and can work full duty in public office.”
Clifford Chen, a doctor at UPMC in Duquesne, released a detailed medical report based on his examination, which the campaign provided to The Philadelphia Inquirer late Tuesday. The report, the latest information from someone who has examined Fetterman since the campaign released a note from his cardiologist in June, confirms the campaign’s ongoing assertions that Fetterman is in good health.
Chen, who became Fetterman’s primary care physician shortly after Fetterman’s stroke in May, said Fetterman’s physical exam was normal, with normal readings for blood pressure, heart rate and oxygen level.
