Dr. Mehmet Oz rushed to help after a woman collapsed during President s speech in Kentucky on Wednesday.
About halfway through Trumps remarks at Verst Logistics in Hebron, Kentucky, an older woman behind the presidents riser appeared to need medical attention, prompting Trump to ask the crowd, “Do we have a doctor in the house? Take your time, please.”
A medical team quickly reached her, including Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator .
“First responders are incredible,” Trump said as he turned and watched emergency medical personnel take care of the woman.
and asked if a song could be played in the meantime.
“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.
“Its Dr. Oz! Can you believe it? Dr. Oz!” Trump said. “Hes a good doctor. Thank you, Oz.”
Trump resumed his remarks about seven minutes later, returning to criticism of California Gov. .
“We were talking about Gavin New-scum,” Trump said with a laugh. “Doesnt seem like a very good subject right now. It made that young lady not feel so good.”
Wednesdays event was not the first time Oz, a former heart surgeon, assisted during a medical episode while serving in the Trump administration.
In April, a young girl fainted near the while Trump was speaking during Ozs swearing-in ceremony.
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.
