Managing chronic diseases is important for maintaining a good quality of life. Management of conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases. Our approach uses monitoring of the condition, medication management, and occasional lifestyle modifications to help you achieve optimal health outcomes.
Smoking Cessation Program
In the last few decades, many adults have decided they would like to quit smoking, but they have found it a difficult effort. In 2014, we introduced a new program to help people quit smoking. Some patients have used a gradual reduction, some have done better with nicotine supplements, and a few patents have benefitted from prescription medications. The medicine Chantix has helped many patients.
The new “electronic cigarettes” have given us all new choices. Are all the different the “vape” systems healthy? We do not know yet while scientific studies are in progress.
Careful review of why someone smokes is important, so the treatments can be individualized. If you want to quit smoking, please feel free to ask the doctor for help. Most people have been surprised that after a while of thinking of the benefits of smoking and the health risks, they find it straight forward to stop smoking.
