The Tobacco Recovery Program at Banner MD Anderson Cancer Center aims to help people quit using cigarettes and all other tobacco products. Research studies show that working with a trained psychologist (individually and in group settings) and using medications is more effective in quitting smoking than doing only one or the other or trying to quit on your own. This combination also helps minimize the likelihood of relapse.
