Great Stories from Being Doctor to the President of the United States

from Healthcare IT Today Interviews · host John Lynn

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be the doctor to the president?  Did you know that a doctor has to be within 2 minutes of the President of the US at all times?  While we can't all have a doctor following us around, what can we learn from the care the President gets?  I had these questions and many more come to mind when I discovered a new book called Transforming Presidential Healthcare: Ensuring Comprehensive Care for the Commander in Chief Amid 21st Century Threats, a Ballast Books title, by author Jeffrey Kuhlman, MD, MPH. Dr. Kuhlman served as a navy physician for 30 years, supporting the White House for 16 years across the adminsitrations of Clinton, Bush, and Obama.  Healthcare IT Today had a chance to sit down with Dr. Kuhlman to hear some of the stories and experiences he had serving the Whie House as a physician.  He shares with us what it takes to provide healthcare to the President and some of the unique challenges they face including how providing health care to the President has evolved over time.
