Summary
President Donald Trump credited White House doctors with saving the life of Rep. Neal Dunn, R-Fla., who was given a “terminal” diagnosis. Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., said White House medical staff helped arrange for Dunn to receive treatment at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, where he underwent emergency surgery. Dunn, a physician and former Army surgeon, announced in January that he would not seek re-election after five terms.

As expected, the matter has reached another stage.
Trump and Johnson recounted the episode during remarks at the White House, saying Dunn was continuing to work in Congress despite a “pretty grim” outlook. Trump praised White House doctors as “miracle workers.” The speaker said White House doctors arranged for Dunn to receive treatment at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. Dunn, a physician and former Army surgeon, was able to receive emergency surgery. The whole process was carried out with a sense of urgency, with Trump saying Dunn was on the operating table “like two hours later.” It’s a familiar scene: politicians coming together to praise medical staff and tout the success of a dramatic intervention.
