Hillary Clinton vs. Donald Trump Health: What Doctors Say About Their Physical & Mental Health

Does Hillary Clinton have a debilitating illness? Does Donald Trump suffer from a disorder? Concerns about these presidential candidate's physical and mental health have been put in question by the American people. After all, Americans will have to vote one of them as U.S. president.

As both camps attempt to discredit each other during this election season to sway votes their way, the public wants the truth about their health explored. Who is best fit for the top post to become one of the most powerful leaders in the world? What do Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump's doctors have to say about their health?

Though hounded by stories that she has not been in the best of health since a having a concussion in 2012, Hillary Clinton had doctors certify that she is fit and fine. In July 2015, the Democrat's doctor, Liza Bardack, ascertained via a letter that Hillary Clinton has no medical problems aside from pollen allergies and hyperthyroidism.

While she did have a concussion, the doctor said that this has been completely resolved after two months. The candidate is also taking maintenance medications and vitamins. She is also eating healthily and has been regularly exercising.

False reports that supposedly had Dr. Bardack claiming Hillary Clinton suffered from dementia was been debunked. Dr. Bardack issued a statement to address this saying that the leaks were fake. "Secretary Clinton is in excellent health and fit to serve as President of the United States," she said, per FactCheck.Org.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump had his doctor release a confirmation that he's also fit to run for the presidency. The letter was supposedly posted on Trump's campaign site back in December 2015, but it appears to have already been taken down.

In it, Dr. Harold Bornstein attested that Trump's physical health was excellent, per The Daily Beast. However, the letter lacked a detailed confirmation in a way that Dr. Bardack wrote hers for Hillary Clinton.

Then there are concerns about Donald Trump's mental state because of the candidate's pronouncements in the media, which suggested he might not be in the right frame of mind for the presidency. But a medical expert, Dr. Justin A. Frank, said that it would be premature to base Trump's mental health on this.

"What we see on TV seems very different from what we hear from friends of his," said Dr. Frank, per NBC News. "Most of my colleagues feel that he's not crazy, and if he is crazy, he's crazy like a fox," the expert further said, alluding that Trump is actually a very smart and persuasive businessman who knows what he is doing.

Hillary Clinton will be 69 years old in October. Donald Trump turned 70 this June.
