Dr Oz helps older woman who collapsed during Trump's speech at Kentucky event

Dr. Mehmet Oz sprang into action during President Donald Trump's speech in Kentucky when an older woman collapsed, prompting the president to pause his remarks and call for assistance.


Dr Oz helps older woman who collapsed during Trump's speech at Kentucky event

About halfway through Trump's remarks at Verst Logistics in Hebron, Kentucky, an older woman behind the president's riser appeared to need medical attention, prompting Trump to ask the crowd, "Do we have a doctor in the house? Take your time, please."

"First responders are incredible," Trump said as he turned and watched emergency medical personnel take care of the woman.

"Do you think the people backstage are listening to me?" Trump said, adding that if they could hear him, he suggested playing "Ave Maria."

The song did not play, and Trump continued to watch as the woman received treatment.

"Take your time," he said. "She looks great."

As first responders began escorting the woman away, Trump noticed Oz was among those helping her.

"It's Dr. Oz! Can you believe it? Dr. Oz!" Trump said. "He's a good doctor. Thank you, Oz."

"We were talking about Gavin New-scum," Trump said with a laugh. "Doesn't seem like a very good subject right now. It made that young lady not feel so good."

Wednesday's event was not the first time Oz, a former heart surgeon, assisted during a medical episode while serving in the Trump administration.

Oz quickly rushed over to assist the child, who was later confirmed to be a member of his family.

In November, a man collapsed in the Oval Office as Trump was giving a press conference, prompting Oz to once again step in to help.
