Can't get a note from your doctor ? Be like the president and write your own !

What a time to be alive.

Donald Drumpf's former doctor has said he did not write a 2015 letter declaring the then-Republican presidential candidate's "astonishingly excellent" health, US media report. "[Drumpf] dictated that whole letter," Harold Bornstein told CNN on Tuesday. The White House has not yet commented on the physician's allegation.

Mr Bornstein also said that Mr Drumpf's bodyguard had carried out a "raid" on his offices in February 2017, removing all of Mr Drumpf's medical records. In an interview with CNN, Mr Bornstein said the 2015 letter suggesting that Mr Drumpf would be the "healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency" was not his professional assessment. "I just made it up as I went along," he said. It is not clear why Mr Bornstein is making these allegations now.

The letter's contents included statements on Mr Drumpf's physical strength and stamina, which were described as "extraordinary". His blood pressure and laboratory tests were described as "astonishingly excellent" and he was said to have lost 15 pounds (7kg) over the course of a year. It added that Mr Drumpf had no forms of cancer or joint surgery.

The New York City-based physician said he was visited by one of Mr Drumpf's personal bodyguards and two other men at his office on 3 February 2017. "They must have been here for 25 or 30 minutes, it created a lot of chaos," Mr Bornstein told NBC News, adding that the incident made him feel "raped, frightened and sad".

He said the original and only copy of Mr Drumpf's medical charts, including lab reports, were taken by his aides. White House press secretary Sarah Sanders later insisted that the incident was not a raid and that it was "standard procedure" for the White House Medical Unit to take possession of the president's medical records.
