Doctors Who Examine Bush Say He Is Exceptionally Fit
By LAWRENCE K. ALTMAN
WASHINGTON, Aug. 6 — President Bush's second annual medical checkup since he took office found him in "extraordinary health," his doctors said today, with his heart and lung function in the top 1 percent for men of his age, up from the top 2 percent a year ago.
The three-hour battery of tests that Mr. Bush, 56, underwent this morning show that he has no evidence of heart disease and a "very low" risk for a heart attack, the doctors said. They predicted that he would remain in excellent health for the rest of his term.
