I visited Leslie in January of 2011 after hearing about her STOP Clinic from a male coworker, David Largen, who stopped smoking with her help. It seemed like such an easy transition for him. I knew of his smoking habits and could not believe he was having such an easy transition. I had been trying to […]
I have smoked 44 years and never thought I could do it and have tried many times to stop. This program gave me the strength to stay focused and gave me coping skills and ideas of how to deal with the thoughts. I think this program is worth a million dollars if it can get me to stop. Leslie also helped me work […]
In 2005, my 8 year old son came to me sobbing “Mama, please stop smoking. Don’t you want to be here to see your grandchildren?” He had never said anything to me about smoking until this moment but his dad had died suddenly the previous year from a heart attack at the age of 38. […]
Prior to meeting Leslie Lyon at The STOP Clinic, I was having a horrible problem with circulation and breathing. One of the first things she said to me was, “You have a little whistle when you exhale.” [smiles] When I tried to walk a block, it would kill my legs. Now, I am walking 2 […]
I smoked a pack of cigarettes for 38 years straight and tried everything to quit but when I would quit in the past, I would miss smoking so much that I’d ruin my chances to stop permanently. I saw Leslie in Raleigh and had the treatment and from that moment, I relaxed and became a non-smoker! I did […]
For 40 years, I had a habit of drinking 5 or 6 Mt. Dews, 5 or 6 BC powders (because of back pain) and a pack of cigarettes every day! For the past year, I’ve had trouble breathing, no energy and a sense of my health spiraling downward. For 10 to 15 minutes after I smoked a cigarette, I […]
I find it hard to know where to begin in this testimonial. This program has given me so much to be thankful for. I smoked for 20+ years. Being a strong-willed single parent, smoking was a way to take a break from everything. My biggest motivation to stop smoking was actually the expense of smoking a pack […]
Fifteen years ago (1999), I came to The STOP Clinic to stop smoking after trying everything there was possible for ten years! This program provided everything I needed to help me stop smoking … counseling, behavior modification, aides and the electrical acupuncture treatment that took away the cravings. After the treatment (having smoked for 20+ years), I […]
One day while playing poker on a computer website, a lady mentioned that she stopped smoking with a laser treatment. The next day I began searching and The STOP Clinic came up on the first page of my search. I called Leslie Lyon and made an appointment. I asked my pulmonary specialist what he thought […]
It was almost seven years ago that I had my last “KOOL FILTER KING” after seeing Leslie Lyon at The STOP Clinic. I went from over two packs a day to zero after my first visit. I had sudden, instantaneous thoughts about lighting up for a while, but the thoughts became weaker and further apart until they were completely gone and I had […]
