The White House doctor who gave former President Joe Biden sparkling health reports during his time in office is actually a friend of the family. This latest development is increasing speculation of a cancer diagnosis cover-up.
Dr. Kevin O’Connor served as the physician for Biden, 82, during his four years in office, repeatedly stating for years Biden’s mental acuity was sharp as a tack. Anyone with a fully functioning set of brain cells knows that was baloney.
But now, after the former president revealed his prostate cancer diagnosis, the relationship between O’Connor and Biden is under the microscope. O’Connor’s service to Biden and his family stretches back over a decade.
It turns out the Biden family physician also has business connections with the former president’s shady younger brother, Jim Biden. Both men worked together on a rural hospital project.
“In that instance, O’Connor engaged in business discussions with James for a since-bankrupted rural hospital chain that was later hit with fraud allegations by the Securities and Exchange Commission and Justice Department,” the New York Post reported.
Everything the Bidens touch falls apart. Who in their right mind would want to partner with this family on a business venture?

Anyway, O’Connor also served Biden while he was the vice president during the Obama administration. These two have been attached at the hip for quite some time.
O’Connor became part of the White House Medical Unit during the presidency of George W. Bush, after serving over 20 years in the Army. His original assignment with Biden was only supposed to last six months. It ended up extending into years.
“That didn’t work out and, so, I ended up doing the whole eight years with him,” O’Connor joked in a rare 2023 interview with the New York Institute of Technology College of Osteopathic Medicine. He retired when Obama and Biden left office, but remained on as Biden’s personal physician. He was brought back as the top White House doctor when Biden was elected president.
He was also a sounding board for the family before Biden’s eldest son, Beau, died of brain cancer in 2015. O’Connor had counseled Beau on treatment options and his prognosis, according to Biden’s memoir, “Promise Me Dad.”
Texas Republican Rep. Ronny Jackson, who himself served as a president’s physician, has repeatedly shredded the relationship between O’Connor and Biden. He recently spoke with The Post and said the physician is basically a “part of the Biden family.”
Which explains why he would seemingly tell some whoppers about the actual status of the former president’s health, physically and mentally.
“He would do or say anything to cover up and protect that family, regardless of what it meant professionally for him,” Jackson said.
President Donald Trump weighed in on the previously positive health reports O’Connor made about the president after the news of Biden’s cancer diagnose broke. He noted how the doctor gave the former president the all-clear during their last physical in February 2024, which was mere months before the public witnessed his cognitive decline on live television during the first presidential debate.
“If it’s the same doctor that said there’s nothing wrong there, and that’s being proven to be a very sad situation,” the president said. “I think someone is going to have to speak to his doctor.”
