Joe Biden’s Former Medical Advisor Discusses How Long the Ex-President May Have Had Ca.cer
Former White House health advisor Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel suggests President Joe Biden’s prostate cancer diagnosis may trace back to the start of his presidency in 2021. Speaking to Fox News, Emanuel noted the disease likely developed slowly, with delayed detection being common due to minimal early symptoms. Oncologist Dr. Christopher Wee explained that prostate cancer often progresses silently, with symptoms like urinary changes appearing only later.
Biden has faced multiple health challenges, including brain aneurysms in 1988, pulmonary embolisms, and atrial fibrillation. In 2023, a routine exam revealed basal cell carcinoma, successfully treated. However, in May 2025, he was diagnosed with aggressive metastatic prostate cancer, which had spread to his bones. Despite ongoing treatment, the advanced stage raises concerns. Meanwhile, public scrutiny over his health intensified after a bruise on his hand sparked online speculation, though the White House has not addressed it. Biden’s complex medical history continues to draw attention as he manages his condition.
