NEW YORK, NY -- "Golden Girl" Rue McClanahan is doing well after completing heart bypass surgery in New York.
"She is doing absolutely great," her rep tells Access. "She went for her physical the other day and her doctor didn't like what he found. As Rue put it, she needed 'a little work on her ticker.' She was in great spirits when she went in for surgery yesterday. She's resting in a hospital in NY and she'll probably be out in a week."
