Medical experts are raising serious concerns about how former President Joe Biden’s aggressive and advanced prostate cancer went undetected during his time in office—despite the routine medical exams expected of someone holding the highest office in the nation.
Biden, 82, was recently diagnosed with high-grade, hormone-sensitive prostate cancer that has already spread to his bones. The cancer carries a Gleason score of 9, indicating an aggressive form that likely developed years ago.
The diagnosis has prompted a wave of skepticism from physicians across the country who are baffled at how such a severe case could have been missed during regular screenings. Prostate cancer is typically caught early with standard blood tests, like the Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) test, especially for men in Biden’s age group.
“This is not a cancer that develops overnight,” said Dr. Chris George, medical director of a cancer program in the Midwest. “It’s almost unbelievable this wasn’t caught sooner. With proper monitoring, prostate cancer is usually detected well before it metastasizes to the bones.”
Dr. Steven Quay, a former faculty member at Stanford University School of Medicine, added that most aggressive prostate cancers still take five to seven years to reach the stage Biden is currently in. “This was likely developing throughout his presidency,” Quay stated. “It raises serious questions about how often and how thoroughly he was actually being screened.”
The revelations have reignited criticism of the Biden administration’s handling of his health disclosures. Congressman Ronny Jackson, a former White House physician under both Presidents Obama and Trump, slammed the lack of transparency and suggested that political considerations may have influenced how Biden’s medical condition was presented—or concealed—from the public.
“We were assured Biden was undergoing regular and thorough exams,” Jackson said. “Either they missed this completely, or they weren’t being honest about what they knew and when.”
Although the White House has confirmed that the cancer is hormone-sensitive and potentially manageable, the fact that it reached such an advanced stage without public disclosure is fueling broader concerns about the integrity of presidential health reporting and the systems in place to monitor leaders’ fitness for office.
As Biden and his family consider treatment options, public trust in the transparency of his medical records continues to erode. For many Americans—and especially those in the medical field—the timing of this diagnosis doesn’t just raise eyebrows; it raises alarm bells.
