John Fetterman's primary care physician says in medical update that Fetterman 'has no work restrictions and can work full duty in public office' after an assessment of his condition following his stroke in May.
Fetterman, who is Pennsylvania's lieutenant governor, saw his doctor, Clifford Chen, on Friday. In a letter summarizing the visit released by Fetterman's Senate campaign, Chen said the candidate is"recovering well from his stroke and his health has continued to improve."
The doctor also said Fetterman's"speech was normal and he continues to exhibit symptoms of an auditory processing disorder which can come across as hearing difficulty. Occasional words he will 'miss' which seems like he doesn’t hear the word but it is actually not processed properly. His hearing of sound such as music is not affected.
"Overall, Lt. Governor Fetterman is well and shows strong commitment to maintaining good fitness and health practices. He has no work restrictions and can work full duty in public office," Chen wrote. "It reminds me why I’m fighting to slash health care costs and make it so every Pennsylvanian can spend more time with the people they love," he said.
