Smoking Cessation Program

Our program uses a comprehensive approach to empower tobacco users with the necessary tools and skills to take control of their health—without any shame, guilt, or pressure. We understand that going tobacco free is a difficult process that takes time. We will meet you where you are in this process and work with you every step of the way to create an individualized treatment plan so you can live tobacco-free.

St. Luke’s program offers multiple options to quit such as in-person and virtual visits, one-on-one or class settings, along with access to free nicotine replacement therapy (patches, gum, and lozenges) for those that qualify. If you are ready to get started, have questions or just want to inquire to learn more, please contact our Program Coordinator at 484-658-2436.
