President Donald Trump is ditching Casey Means as his surgeon general nominee, he announced on Truth Social on Thursday.
His new — third — nominee for America’s top doctor: Nicole Saphier, a radiologist who currently serves as the director of breast imaging at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center — and who criticized mask and vaccine mandates during the pandemic.
“Nicole is a STAR physician,” Trump wrote in his announcement. “She is also an INCREDIBLE COMMUNICATOR, who makes complicated health issues more easily understood by all Americans.”
