President Donald Trump<\/a> revealed a new pick for surgeon general on Wednesday, saying he will now nominate Dr. Casey Means for the job.<\/p>\n

“Casey has impeccable \u2018MAHA\u2019 credentials, and will work closely with our wonderful Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.,<\/a> to ensure a successful implementation of our Agenda in order to reverse the Chronic Disease Epidemic, and ensure Great Health, in the future, for ALL Americans,” Trump said late Wednesday afternoon in a post on his social media platform Truth Social. “Dr. Casey Means has the potential to be one of the finest Surgeon Generals in United States History.”<\/p>\n

Means, a vocal “Make America Healthy Again”<\/a> proponent, played a big role in helping shape the administration’s agenda surrounding health, alongside her brother, Calley Means.<\/p>\n

Calley Means has been tapped by the administration to serve as a special advisor to Secretary Kennedy.<\/p>\n

Trump previously announced he would nominate Dr. Janette Nesheiwat,<\/a> a former Fox News contributor, to be surgeon general.<\/p>\n

It’s unclear why Nesheiwat’s nomination was pulled. Fox News Digital reached out to the White House for more information.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Trump added in his post that Secretary Kennedy “looks forward to working with Dr. Janette Nesheiwat in another capacity at HHS.”<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, in a follow-up post on X, Nesheiwat also said she was “looking forward” to continuing to support Trump while working closely with Secretary Kennedy “in a senior policy role.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

“My focus continues to be on improving the health and well-being<\/a> of all Americans, and that mission hasn\u2019t changed,” Nesheiwat concluded in her public social media remarks. \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
