The Maryland Tobacco Control Resource Center is proud to be partnered with the the UMMC Tobacco Health Practice.
When you are trying to cut down or stop tobacco/nicotine use, it can be helpful to work with an experienced team who understands the difficulties of this journey.
The UMMC Tobacco Health Practice at the UMMC Midtown Campus's Center for Pulmonary Health offers comprehensive care for lung disorders, including asthma, COPD, bronchitis, and interstitial lung disease. Additionally, the UMMC Tobacco Health Practice provides treatment for tobacco use and vaping to patients aged 16 years and older.
We understand that stopping takes time and can be frustrating, and we don't believe in picking a date to quit. We will work with you to create a custom plan that works for you.
