The White House press secretary clarified that President Joe Biden did see a neurologist in January, contradicting claims she made during Tuesday’s news briefing.

“Because the date was not mentioned in the question, I want to be clear that the January 17th meeting between Dr. O’Connor and Dr. Cannard was for the President’s physical,” Karine Jean-Pierre said in a statement released Tuesday evening. “It was one of the three times the President has seen Dr. Cannard, each time for his physical. The findings from each exam have been released to the public.”
