President Trump announced Wednesday that he planned to name Dr. Casey Means to serve as his general surgeon after he withdrew the nomination of his previous election, Dr. Ir. Janette Nesheiwat.
“Casey has impeccable ‘Maha’ credentials, and will work in close collaboration with the wonderful Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., to guarantee a successful implementation of our agenda to reissue the health of health, Yyy Trump wrote about Truth Social, referring to the Make America Healthy Agan Ain Ain.
Dr. Means, a well -being influencer, is the co -author of “Good Energy”, a book on chronic diseases. He wrote it with his brother, Calley Means, who is Mr. Kennedy’s main advisor. The brothers have been prominent supporters of the political efforts of Mr. Kennedy.
When Mr. Kennedy swore as the new Secretary of Health, Dr. Means wrote in X that “he has a vision for the future aligning with what I love my family, future children and the world.”
Dr. USIA’s website says he obtained his degree and medical titles from Stanford University before leaving his residence program in Surgery. She is the co -founder of Levels, a digital health company that uses continuous glucose monitoring to help track metabolic health.
Trump said Dr. Nesheiwat, a former Fox News collaborator, would work with Mr. Kennedy “in another capacity” in the Department of Health and Human Services.
Dr. Nesheiwat planned to appear before the Senate Health Committee on Thursday, but her nomination had problems on two fronts. Laura Loomer, a conservative activist Trump has included in other personnel matters, requested a new general nominated for the surgeon, arguing that Dr. Nesheiwat “is not ideological aligned” with the president. The reports have also raised questions about the veracity of Dr. Nesheiwat’s curriculum.
She is Michael Waltz’s sister -in -law, who served as National Security Advisor of Mr. Trump until last week. The president said he would name Mr. Waltz to be the ambassador to the United Nations.
