I screen, you screen, we all screen for … National Lung Cancer Screening Day! 🫁

Our November 8 screening event was a big success, as about 30 people came to Huntsville Hospital Medical Mall Imaging for a low-dose computed tomography (CT) lung scan. 🩻

This quick, noninvasive screening exam is considered the gold standard for detecting early-stage lung cancer in current and former smokers between 50 and 80 years old. Talk to your doctor to see if you meet the screening criteria. 💚

Attorney Jeff McKinney lost 265 lbs and gained control of his life! 🤯

Jeff faced a tough reality: his weight was preventing him from getting necessary back surgery. Tired of pain and ready for change, he sought out our Center for Surgical Weight Loss.

Bariatric surgery wasn't a quick fix, it was a powerful tool that helped him break free from decades of sedentary habits and overeating. Jeff dropped from 435 lbs to a stable 184 lbs, reclaiming his health and energy! 💪

"I had no idea of the physical burdens I had carried for years," he shares. His journey proves that with the right support, taking control of your health is absolutely possible.
