Dr. Jackson was too "crunched for time" to examine DT's heel spurs? Even though they're planning

an exercise program for him? And heel spurs don't get away by themselves, and often get worse?

Sounds like DT needs to get a better doctor.

One who's at least a better liar.

trump not interested in exercise; rather, diet.

Howard Dean said the doctor has a fine reputation.

DT is more interested in diet) so I don't know why aggravating preexisting heel spurs wouldn't be a consideration. They want him to both diet and get more exercise.

That doctor may have a fine reputation, but that doesn't mean he isn't sucking up to DT.

and weighs only 239 lbs and is 6'3".. then why is he going on an exercise and diet program?

trump has been quoted as thinking exercise shortens your life and he looks like he adheres to that fallacy.

That's what is so surreal about the obvious fake news regarding his weight and height.. it's from a doctor and it's hard to fathom why he would sully his reputation.. but, here we are.
