Alex Berenson at his substack, Unreported Truths:
Dr. Kevin R. Cannard, a Parkinson's disease specialist, has visited the White House at least nine times in the last year, official White House visitor logs show.
The logs show Dr. Cannard traveled to the White House residence medical clinic each time. He met either with the president's personal physician or the naval nurse who coordinates care for the president and other top officials, the logs show.
Dr. Cannard's spate of visits began on July 28, 2023 and continued at least through March 28, 2024. The most recently released logs end on April 1, so it is not clear if Dr. Cannard has been to the White House more recently.
He's a neurologist specializing in "early" Parkinson's treatment.
Maybe he was just visiting the White House because he really likes the chicken salad they serve at the commissary.
This has now been confirmed by the New York Times, which, of course, does not credit Alex Berenson for the scoop, and also gives the White House's spin on the visits.
Apparently, it's good news that a Parkinson's doctor keeps visiting the White House, to confirm and re-confirm and re-re-confirm that Biden totally does not have Parkinson's.
An expert on Parkinson's disease from Walter Reed National Military Medical Center visited the White House eight times in eight months from last summer through this spring, including at least once for a meeting with President Biden's physician, according to official visitor logs.
The expert, Dr. Kevin Cannard, is a neurologist who specializes in movement disorders and recently published a paper on Parkinson's. The logs, released by the White House in response to a request from The New York Times, document visits from July 2023 through March of this year. More recent visits, if there have been any, would not be released until later under the White House's voluntary disclosure policy.
It was unclear whether Dr. Cannard was at the White House to consult specifically about the president or whether he was there as part of unrelated meetings with the White House medical team. Dr. Cannard's LinkedIn page describes him as "supporting the White House Medical Unit" for more than 12 years, which would include during the administrations of Presidents Donald J. Trump and Barack Obama.
Dr. Cannard did not respond to repeated requests for comment. The White House did not comment specifically on the purpose of his visits. "A wide variety of specialists from the Walter Reed system visit the White House complex to treat the thousands of military personnel who work on the grounds," Andrew Bates, a White House spokesman, said in a statement.
