I needed a hip replacement. I felt caught between a rock and a hard place. Nicotine was my comfort and joy for 49 years. Now, it was helping mask the excruciating pain in my hip. My MD said he would not operate and replace my hip until I was nicotine free for 6 weeks! Surgeries […]
Betty Brown of Kinston, NC stopped smoking after having Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder for 9 years. Even though I love the feeling and relaxation of a shower, I used to dread getting into the shower. I hung my oxygen mask close by on the towel rod so I could put it on quickly. During the […]
I came to The STOP Clinic to stop smoking and got more than I paid for! I was waiting to share this information with you… just in case… I was probably just a little bit of a Doubting Thomas [smiling]. I had back problems for a lot years. My back would get really sore and start trying […]

A woman stopped me in the parking lot as I was smoking a cigarette and asked me if I wanted to quit. I had been thinking about it recently. She told me about The STOP Clinic. I went In and I was amazed. I have been a smoker over 18 years. And I have not […]
I started going to the Stop Clinic for smoking cessation in May 2007. Many times previously, I had spoken to Leslie Lyon about my desire to quit smoking. She told me on several occasions that when I was ready she would be there for me. I was 51 at the time and had smoked since […]

No more chewing Nicorette gum, inhaling cigars and three packs of Marlboros per day. I was truly hooked on tobacco products at a very young age. I read books, attended seminars (including hypnosis) and knew the dangers of smoking but I was still unable to quit long term. Until I was playing golf with a […]
Hi Leslie! Several of my relatives went to The STOP Clinic to stop smoking, so 17 years ago, 2002, I went to this clinic and I have not smoked since. Next week, my son and his wife are going and I am excited for them! After stopping smoking, my diabetic symptoms are less severe. My blood sugar dropped from 9 to […]
My wife, Judie, was addicted too, but not as badly as I. She encouraged me, as did my cousin Jo, to partake in The STOP Clinic’s Smoking Treatment Sessions. So Judie and I went to Cary, NC.
