Tobacco Cessation – Student Health Services

Quitting Smoking or Tobacco Use

If you are exploring this page for the first time or you are trying to quit smoking, vaping, or using tobacco products for the 10th or 100th time, we welcome this chance to support your efforts! To increase your chance of success, make a free appointment with Student Health Services specifically for tobacco cessation. Call 703-993-2831 or schedule a consultation appointment in the online Patient Portal.

Tobacco dependence is the number one public health problem in the world and the single most preventable cause of death in the United States – not to mention the cause of many respiratory infections, bad breath, early wrinkles, yellow teeth AND a huge money drain.

Get one-on-one help to make a plan to quit smoking, vaping, or using tobacco. Talk with a healthcare provider who can review information on all the latest nicotine replacement therapies and assist you in identifying and overcoming your personal triggers and obstacles.

We want to support students in this difficult task. Nicotine addiction can be strong, but you are stronger! Even if you are just considering quitting, make an appointment and let’s discuss your options!
