A Parkinson's disease specialist has visited the White House residence medical clinic at least nine times since July 2023

The President's personal physician and a nurse who coordinates his care scheduled the meetings with Dr. Kevin R. Cannard. Before last July, he had come only once during Joe Biden's administration.

Dr. Kevin R. Cannard, a Parkinson’s disease specialist, has visited the White House at least nine times in the last year, official White House visitor logs show.

The logs show Dr. Cannard traveled to the White House residence medical clinic each time. He met either with the president’s personal physician or the naval nurse who coordinates care for the president and other top officials, the logs show.

Dr. Cannard’s spate of visits began on July 28, 2023 and continued at least through March 28, 2024. The most recently released logs end on April 1, so it is not clear if Dr. Cannard has been to the White House more recently.

The logs do not note the purpose of Dr. Cannard’s visits.

A physician profile page for him notes he is a “neurologist and movement disorders specialist at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center” who researches treatments for “early phase Parkinson’s disease.” Walter Reed provides medical care to senior federal officials.

Before July 2023, Dr. Cannard had visited the White House only once during the Biden administration, in November 2022.

On one visit, in January, his host is listed as Dr. Kevin O’Connor, the president’s personal physician. On the other eight, it is Commander Megan Nasworthy, the naval nurse who coordinates care for the President and a few other senior officials. (The New York Post first reported Dr. Cannard’s January meeting with Dr. O’Connor.)

The White House residence clinic briefly came to attention earlier this year, after a military inspector general reported that it had dispensed Provigil, a mild stimulant medication, without proper oversight.

It is part of the White House Medical Unit, whose primary role, according to the inspector general’s report, is to protect “the health and safety of the President and Vice‑President of the United States.”

Was Biden specifically asked if he had Parkinson? I know he was asked if he had Alzheimer’s or dementia.

Is there a law that states anyone who covers for an ailing President can be prosecuted? Let us not forget that the domestic enemies who prosecuted and convicted Trump for paying Stormy Daniels said he hid the affair from the public thereby interfering in the election. Well if that’s true - and it isn’t - the same could be said for those who hid Joes mental illness in 2020

We know the mild stimulant wasn’t for Kackles, but give her one before her next appearance and roll tape.

Laws no longer apply to communists.

Parkinson’s comes with its own dementia issues. It’s not just “shaking.”

Yes... But it ‘sounds’ better than dementia, and they could claim that Biden is able enough to make decisions. He clearly isn’t, but that’s the jest... They need him to resign and if he has ‘dementia’, then he can’t make the decision to resign... Dementia patients can’t make decisions.

“Parkinson disease causes physical symptoms at first. Problems with cognitive function, including forgetfulness and trouble with concentration, may start later. As the disease gets worse over time, about 4 in 5 people develop dementia. This can cause profound memory loss and make it hard to maintain relationships.

Joe is near the end of the line.

So, did he ever actually meet face to face with Biden or not?

No one on our side is going to prosecute the turnip. Their side on the other hand may if they really want him out.

My brother had Parkinson’s. He would stutter in his walking at times, but his mind was sharp. Biden’s mind is not sharp.
