Doctors Who Examine Bush Say He Is Exceptionally Fit

By LAWRENCE K. ALTMAN

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6 — President Bush's second annual medical checkup since
he took office found him in "extraordinary health," his doctors said
today, with his heart and lung function in the top 1 percent for men of
his age, up from the top 2 percent a year ago.

The three-hour battery of tests that Mr. Bush, 56, underwent this morning
show that he has no evidence of heart disease and a "very low" risk for a
heart attack, the doctors said. They predicted that he would remain in
excellent health for the rest of his term.
