A CNN doctor who recently took an opportunity to try and convince the country that President Donald Trump’s health was swiftly going swirly down the toilet turns out to be a total fraud. Chris Pernell, a frequent “television doctor” — lives up to the name as she literally only plays one on TV — has not actually practiced medicine since her residency.
The entirety of her career has been spent as a diversity, equity, and inclusion specialist. Oh and that’s not even the icing on the cake. Pernell is an “apostle” of a church whose head honcho teaches Trump is the “antichrist.” Nothing screams “I need a free vacation to the funny farm” like delusional claims that the president is the vessel for Satan.
Last week, during an appearance on the network, Pernell issued in typical left-wing melodrama, that Trump was diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency and that there was likely something more serious going on.
“It is a disease that is progressive,” Pernell stated during the interview. “And what that means is that if there aren’t conservative treatments, elevation, compression, medication, if needed, to treat accompanying ulcers or skin changes, it can worsen and actually put a person at risk for deep venous thrombosis.”
Pernell then suggested a myriad of possible complications that could come about from such a condition. It’s almost like she was hoping one of these might hit the president. Wouldn’t surprise any of us, what with the insane level of vile hatred the left has for Trump.
“If a person is sitting or standing for prolonged amounts of time, you can get chronic venous insufficiency, and while it is not life threatening, it can be debilitating,” she continued. “You can develop ulcers in addition to skin discoloration. And if a person develops ulcers, you want to make sure those ulcers aren’t infected.”

Though Pernell does have an M.D. from the Duke University School of Medicine and completed a residency with the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, her LinkedIn page does not mention having treated patients. After completing her degree at Duke, receiving a Master’s degree in public health from Columbia, and her time with Johns Hopkins, Pernell served as “Chief Strategic Integration and Health Equity Officer” at University Hospital in Newark, New Jersey. In that role, she drafted the hospital’s first “equity and inclusion strategy,” hired the hospital’s first “director of equity and inclusion,” and instituted mandatory implicit bias and structural racism training.
Pernell said during an October 2022 appearance on the Karen Hunter Show that she faced multiple compliance probes from hospital leadership, stemming in large part from her public criticism of Trump and Republicans. In 2021, for instance, she compared vaccine-skeptical Americans to white supremacists on MSNBC’s airwaves.
Pernell had resigned from the hospital a month earlier after an intensive and unsuccessful campaign to become CEO. She claimed during her conversation with Hunter that she had been “forced out,” blaming her departure on racism.
“I have had an outpouring of physicians—in particular black physicians, black corporate executives, women generally, and people throughout the field of medicine and public health—stand up and say, ‘What happened to you, unfortunately, is a part of a pattern of abuse,'” Pernell went on to say. “‘It is an abusive relationship between white power structures and black executives.'”
Pernell’s latest gig is being the director of the NAACP Center for Health Equity. Her role entails her doing work to “drive equitable health outcomes and transform healthcare systems through a comprehensive socioeconomic approach valuing the whole person.”
