Medical experts call for Biden's "immediate and thorough evaluation" as he displays worsening symptoms of Parkinson's disease

Following President Joe Biden's disastrous debate performance with former President Donald Trump, medical experts have expressed their concern that the incumbent commander-in-chief is suffering from Parkinson's disease, a progressive neurological condition. They are calling for Biden's immediate and thorough evaluation. Without purporting to make a formal diagnosis, the medical practitioners believe that the odds are high that Biden is suffering from some form of Parkinsonism, which is the cluster of degenerative neurological conditions of which Parkinson's disease is the best known. They believe that the 81-year-old top executive has been exhibiting various classic symptoms of the disorder, including a slowed walk, slight lurching inertia when starting a step or turn, flat face (hypomimia), a staring look with diminished blinking and a low raspy voice (hypophonia), all occurring together. "The pathologic elements seem fully aligned," one doctor who has treated many Parkinson's cases said. Blogger Paul Campos of Lawyers Guns Money said he spoke with two eminent medical academics, who are nationally known experts on Parkinson's and other movement disorders. In separate interviews, Campos asked each of the doctors to comment on Biden's White House physician Dr. Kevin O'Connor's claim back in February that Biden shows no signs of Parkinson’s and therefore does not need to be tested for the disease. Dr. Kelvin Chou, a professor of neurology and associate chair of the Department of Neurology at the University of Michigan Medical School, said he has concerns about the neurologic condition of both major candidates and that "for President Biden, I think Parkinson's disease would be the top concern given the clips I have seen. Based on chats with my neurologist and movement disorders colleagues, they all agree as well." As to the White House's claim that there's no need to evaluate Biden for Parkinson's, Chou explained that "the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease is made clinically, based on a detailed history and comprehensive neurological examination. Neurologists, who specialize in brain conditions, and movement disorders specialists, who specialize in Parkinson's disease, are much more likely to be able to recognize signs and make a diagnosis than a general physician." The second professor said, "a full neurological exam by a neurologist and ideally an expert in movement disorders, very well could reach a different conclusion." Biden, he added, "has displayed bradykinesia for a while." Bradykinesia is a slowness of movement which is one of the cardinal symptoms of Parkinson's. According to the doctor, the debate also indicated a few other features of Parkinsonism. "With the caveat that I only would do so after performing a neurological examination, I would offer [Biden] a trial of standard dopamine replenishment therapy (levodopa/carbidopa) and likely perform a DAT scan to assess if the dopamine innervation of the brain has been reduced." A DAT scan is an imaging technique that uses a radioactive drug to evaluate the brain's dopamine system, which is what Parkinson's disrupts. He added that he "would imagine every movement disorders doctor would [after evaluating Biden] conclude parkinsonism [was the correct diagnosis] very quickly." Campos further said that he spoke with a medical malpractice attorney, who said that if a general practitioner encountered a patient with Biden's symptoms and then failed to refer that patient to a neurologist for evaluation of possible Parkinson's, that doctor would be guilty of malpractice.

Parkinson's specialist examined Biden for each of his annual physicals

Meanwhile, the Biden regime may have already acknowledged the call for Biden's medical evaluation for Parkinson's disease. However, the White House is denying this as it released a letter from a Parkinson's specialist, denying that his visits to the president's office were to treat Biden. Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre faced repeated questions at a briefing on the morning of July 8 about Biden's health and the possible treatment done to the president by Dr. Kevin Cannard, an expert on Parkinson's disease. Visitor logs, details of which were first reported by the New York Post and New York Times, show that Cannard came to the White House eight times from last summer to this spring. The logs show Cannard met at least once with Biden's physician. "Has the president been treated for Parkinson's? No. Is he being treated for Parkinson's? No, he's not. Is he taking medication for Parkinson's? No," said Jean-Pierre. But at the time, the press secretary refused to confirm the doctor's visits, citing "security reasons." "That is what I'm sharing with you. So every time he has a physical, he has to see a neurologist. So that is answering that question," she claimed. "Did Dr. Kevin Cannard come to the White House specifically because of the president's condition?" CBS News' Ed O'Keefe asked. "For security reasons, we cannot share names," the press secretary said. "We cannot share names of specialists broadly, from a dermatologist to a neurologist." Later the same day, a memo was released indicating that Cannard was the neurological specialist who examined Biden for each of his annual physicals.
