HCA Florida Ocala Hospital​ is helping bring advanced lung care closer to home.

As the only hospital in Marion County offering 3D cone beam computed tomography technology during bronchoscopy procedures, this technology is helping doctors diagnose lung nodules with greater precision, giving patients faster answers and a clearer path forward.

Lung cancer is the country's leading cause of cancer-related deaths, with most cases not caught until a late stage when the survival rate is only 8%. When identified early, lung cancer is treatable. As early stages are largely symptom-free, it's essential to follow ACS recommendation for annual screenings.

On this we celebrate the first robotic-assisted total knee replacement surgery utilizing the Jiffy Knee® method at HCA Florida Kendall Hospital. Yuri Zepada faced severe knee osteoarthritis, with pain and stiffness significantly impacting his quality of life and daily activities. After exhausting conservative treatments, including physical therapy, over-the-counter medications and joint injections, he turned to orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Yoav Zvi.

Yuri underwent a robotic-assisted total knee replacement surgery, utilizing the Jiffy Knee® method — a minimally traumatic, muscle-sparing approach designed to reduce post-operative pain and support a faster recovery. From pre-operative planning to post-surgical recovery, Yuri received comprehensive, patient-centered care every step of the way. Today, he is feeling great, recovering well and already reaching important milestones sooner than expected.

On this we celebrate a special NICU milestone for Baby Maya Mora. Born on Valentine’s Day at 31 weeks and weighing just 2 pounds, Maya received specialized care in our Neonatal Intensive Care Unit after her mother developed preeclampsia late in pregnancy. Earlier this month, Maya graduated from the NICU at 36 weeks and weighing double her birth weight — strong, growing and ready to head home.

“I am so grateful for the entire NICU team. They cared for my baby girl with so much love and compassion every single day,” her mother shared.

Congratulations to Maya and her family on this incredible milestone and thank you to our dedicated NICU team for the exceptional care they provide to our smallest patients.
