This long-overdue podcast by Dr. Mark Millard, Medical Director of the Baylor Martha Foster Lung Care Center and Professor of Pulmonology at Baylor University in Dallas, TX, focuses on many aspects of smoking cessation: how physicians can effectively discuss it with patients, how anyone can discuss the issue constructively with a smoker, and how someone motivated to quit can use a wide range of tools -- both behavioral and medical -- to optimize their chance of quitting for good.
