"I am happy to announce the President of the United States is in very good health and I anticipate he will remain so for the duration of his presidency, and beyond," The Hill quoted Conley as saying.

The statement by the White House physician came after President Trump underwent a health check-up at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

Conley, meanwhile, provided no further details into the health reports of the US President, adding that the medical records are "still being finalised," recommending that more information in the matter would be released later.

President Trump participated in roughly four hours of medical exams performed by Conley and "a panel of 11 different board certified specialists" at the Medical Centre on Friday afternoon.
