President Donald Trump on Saturday named Rear Adm. Ronny Jackson as chief medical adviser and assistant to the president.
Jackson, the president’s former physician and once his nominee to lead the Department of Veterans Affairs before, was also nominated for a promotion to a two-star admiral on Friday.
The dual announcements came ahead of Trump’s annual physical, which is scheduled for Feb. 8 at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.
