Sharon Smith: Robotic lung surgery saved me weeks of recovery.

Sharon Smith's checkup took an unexpected turn when a shadow showed up on her chest x-ray. "It was a cancerous tumor in my lung." Fortunately, the cancer was a low-grade and early-stage. "My oncologist referred me to Baylor Scott & White for robotic surgery. He said I'd get the best care there, and I did." The robot-assisted procedure used tiny incisions, minimizing Sharon's pain and recovery time. "The day after surgery, they told me to just go home and live a nice, long life." A couple of weeks later, she was doing exactly that—working in the garden she loves and enjoying the sunshine. For more information, visit us at https://www.TheHeartHospitalBaylor.com.
