Episode description

A severely depressed president ... a president with a "mysterious growth" ... a president with a hidden surgery ... another with a stroke that left him incapacitated ... and a commander-in-chief whose hemorrhoids became international news (true story). 

All stories we hear about from Dr. Jacob Appel, M.D., MS, MPH, who has become a leading expert on presidential health.  From the role of the White House physician to the health qualms of Pres. George Washington to the difference of cognitive and neurological exams for aging leaders, Dr. Appel weaves some healthy, historical perspective into today's continuing developing story about the health and political future of Pres. Biden.
