BIO
As the Director of the Tobacco Treatment Center at UIH, I am passionate about helping patients with nicotine and tobacco dependence to become abstinent. I am the medication expert in the UIH pulmonary clinic, ensuring our asthma and COPD patients have the safest and most effective medications. In the UIC College of Pharmacy, I enjoy teaching pulmonary therapeutics and having students work with me in the outpatient clinical setting.
