Outside physicians initially raised questions after Trump visited Walter Reed Military Medical Center earlier this month for what the White House described as a routine follow-up visit, though it was his second visit in six months.

    This is not new. Pretty sure they did the same thing for Reagan and Biden. Doesn’t mean it’s right, just not unprecedented.
