Former Surgeon General Jerome Adams is once again voicing serious concerns about Donald Trump’s nominee for Surgeon General, Casey Means, stating it’s “incomprehensible” that she’s even being considered, given her qualifications. Adams, who served in Trump’s first term, made his strong objections known on X, highlighting Means’s lack of an active medical license and her never having practiced medicine unsupervised.
“As a former U.S. Surgeon General who held an active medical license and practiced medicine while in the role (at Walter Reed and aboard the USS Comfort) it is incomprehensible that the Senate is even considering a nominee for this role who lacks any active license and has never practiced unsupervised,” Adams wrote on Wednesday.
