Mary Lou Gooden stopped smoking, reduced diabetic symptoms and had bronchitis only once in 17 years! 

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 […]

Brian and Judie Maderos of The Villages in Florida was addicted to smoking for 45 years.

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. I went, but I really did not want to submit even to the possibility of quitting smoking. I reluctantly pacified my wife and met […]

Sarah Troxler changed her diet to get rid of Heart Palpations

Today is Thanksgiving Day 2017. Saturday morning in 2017, I was visiting with a group of friends talking about past experiences that defied explanation! Steve shared, “Many years ago, I visited a woman in Cary that cured my obsessive smoking habit. I had smoked for most of my adult life and none of the methods […]

Kem Arthur of Kernersville, NC stopped smoking after trying for 12 years!

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 […]

Doreen Hook of Creedmoor, NC was addicted to Cigarettes for 44 years

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 […]

Justin Verlinger of Fayetteville stopped smoking and refers many friends!

I have not had a cigarette in about 5 years now, my very last one was in the parking lot of The STOP Clinic. I was skeptical, unhappy about the cost of cigarettes, and anxious all at the same time. I had tried quitting many times, using every method out there… nothing really worked, and […]

Melinda Brisson of Dublin, NC stopped smoking for her 8 year old son

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. […]

Glen Gullie of Raleigh, North Carolina was a former smoker with multiple health problems for 45 years.

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 […]
