"Anticipating a very busy 2020, the President is taking advantage of a free weekend here in Washington, D.C., to begin portions of his routine annual physical exam at Walter Reed," press secretary Stephanie Grisham Stephanie GrishamIvana Trump on Melania as first lady: 'She's very quiet, and she really doesn't go to too many places' The Hill's 12:30 Report: Trump uses White House as campaign backdrop Coronavirus tests not required for all Melania Trump speech attendees: report MORE said in a statement.

Grisham also said that Trump left the Bethesda, Md., facility after "a quick exam and labs." She added that the president greeted medical staff and the family of a soldier injured in Afghanistan during his visit, which lasted just over two hours.

Trump did not have any events on his public schedule on Saturday.

An unidentified source told CNN that Trump’s physical was not on the president’s schedule on Friday.

Grisham told Fox News host Jeanine Pirro late Saturday that Trump decided to go to Walter Reed since it was a “down day.”

"He is healthy as can be," she told Pirro. "He’s got more energy than anybody in the White House. That man works from 6 a.m. until very, very late at night. He’s doing just fine."

The president’s physician, Navy Cdr. Sean Conley, said after Trump’s most recent medical exam in February that there were "no findings of significance or changes to report on his physical exam, including the eyes, ears, nose, mouth, teeth/gums, heart, lungs, skin, gastrointestinal, and neurologic systems."

Officials noted at the time that the president had gained four pounds since an exam in January 2018 and his cholesterol was lower. His daily dosage of the cholesterol drug rosuvastatin was also increased to 40 milligrams daily.
