More info: http://columbiasurgery.org/womens-lung-health-center Each week we ask our surgeons about what they do and what inspires them. In this segment, Dr. Payne Stanifer, thoracic surgeon and Director of Women's Lung and Health Center, talks lung cancer in women. Because women have different symptoms than men for many lung diseases, they often go misdiagnosed or under-diagnosed. Women make up a little under 50% of lung cancer patients overall, but make up 2/3 of non-smokers who get lung cancer.
