The following video is a project prepared for the Family Medicine Course. The interviewee, an actor, plays the role of a former smoker. All the information he provides and states as his personal experience were collected by interviewing an actual former smoker and surveying multiple current smokers. The method and anecdote of quitting that the actor relays (with the help of a Family Physician) is based on the Family Physician's (The Family Medicine) approach to smoking cessation for patients, as well as multiple opinions and advice gathered from several doctors and trained physicians. None of the statements made by the actor in regards to his experience is fabricated or modified to a biased production. As stated, it is based on responses of a survey answered by smokers and an interview with an actual smoker.""
