I was a smoker for over four decades. My family doctor found out and got the ball rolling. It started with an X-ray, but I went on to get a CT scan with contrast. I had lung cancer and chose surgery. I was in the hospital for six days in June 2022 . I'm doing very well now, went in for my second scan this December. My family doctor saved my life, I am forever grateful!
