Midway through the event, a woman in the crowd collapsed, prompting Trump to pause his remarks and ask if any medical professionals were present.
"Do we have a doctor in the house? Take your time, please," the president said, via The New York Post.
Donald Trump Kentucky Speech Briefly Halted by Medical Emergency
A medical team quickly responded to the situation, including Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz.
As first responders attended to the woman, Trump praised their efforts from the stage.
"First responders are incredible," he said.
The president then asked if the song "Ave Maria" could be played while the situation was being handled, though the request was not fulfilled.
As the woman was helped away by emergency personnel, Trump noticed Oz among the responders.
"It's Dr. Oz! Can you believe it? Dr. Oz!" he said. "He's a good doctor. Thank you, Oz."
The event, held at Verst Logistics in Hebron, Kentucky, was paused for roughly seven minutes before Trump resumed his speech.
Trump Resumes Speech After Brief Pause
When the event continued, Trump returned to his remarks and resumed criticism of California Governor Gavin Newsom.
"We were talking about Gavin New-scum. Doesn't seem like a very good subject right now. It made that young lady not feel so good," he said.
Oz, a former heart surgeon, has frequently appeared alongside Trump at public events while serving in the administration.
The 65-year-old has been present during multiple medical incidents in recent months.
In April, a young girl fainted in the Oval Office while Trump was speaking during Oz's swearing-in ceremony. The girl was later confirmed to be a member of Oz's family, and he quickly rushed to assist.
On another occasion in the Oval Office, a man collapsed during a press conference as Trump was speaking, with Oz again stepping in to help.
Oz, widely known as a television presenter, author, and physician, has served as the 17th administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services since 2025.
