Dr. Gianoli: Voters Deserve a Report From Hillary's Neurologist

Amid increasing questions of Hillary Clinton's health and stamina, Dr. Gerard Gianoli, M.D., clinical associate professor at Tulane University, made a call for the Democratic nominee’s medical records Tuesday night.

"I think we need to see the report from her neurologist; I think we need to see the report from her ophthalmologist, and I also I think we need to see some post-concussive testing that’s been done," Dr. Gianoli told Newsmax TV's "Newsmax Prime" host J.D. Hayworth.

"I guarantee you if the same scenario was with [Donald] Trump, the media would be all on top of that, demanding that he release the medical records."

Gianoli, a neuro-otology expert, cited a number of instances Mrs. Clinton displayed potentially problematic health issues, adding "the biggest concerns I have is there is a lot of unknowns" voters could use some insight on, particularly when it pertains to her balance and brain functioning.

"She is going to have cognitive issues if that is the scenario, and as a voter, I would like to be reassured that is not a problem," Dr. Gianoli told Hayworth.

Dr. Gianoli said Tuesday a Clinton statement on her health won't do — it needs to come in the way of a medical exam from an independent health panel.

This to me is like the tax return issue. It is not legally required, and until it becomes so it should not be made into something. I personally think it would be a wise move to start mental and physical testing of persons running for high office. Then give the voters the information so we can make a more informed decision when it comes time to pull the lever.

I disagree with 10:16 stating "it should not be made into something". The DemocRATs made it a major issue with McCain and he turned over several pages. So if you don't want Hillary to do the same then you must be a Liberal DemocRAT who does not believe in equality and truth. The DemocRATs open the door and now they want to close it because it relates to their candidate.

Even if she wins this election, we need to know that her Vice-President can take over because it doesn't seem she is going to be around much longer. She can lie her way out of Benghazi, Whitewater, emails, and her server but she can't lie her way out of health issues.
