He looks as if he had some sort of 'invasive procedure' done, doesn't he?President Barack Obama got a physical examination this morning at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Md.
He arrived there by helicopter at about 6:40 am EST. The physical was performed by Dr. Jeff Kuhlman, a Navy captain and head of the White House medical unit, according to Press Secretary Robert Gibbs.
Some preliminary testing had taken place earlier, and the physical lasted about an hour and a half.
Kuhlman had this recommendation for Obama, according to Gibbs: Come back for another physical in August 2011 -- when the president turns 50.
At Bethesda, Obama also met with 12 service members who were injured in Iraq or Afghanistan, according to the spokesman.
Obama was home with Marine One by 9:30 am -- asked about how his checkup went, the president signaled a thumbs-up.
