The UHS has added, as one of its medical services to the UPLB community, a Pulmonary and Smoking Cessation Clinic. The clinic is headed by Dr. Almira Onia, a visiting consultant specializing in adult pulmonary medicine. UPLB students, faculty, and employees with pulmonary problems such as bronchial asthma, pulmonary tuberculosis, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema may see Dr. Onia free of charge on Mondays at 8-10 AM and Fridays, 2-4 PM at the Medical Arts Building.

Together with the QuitsS Program Management Team members, peer educators, and counsellors, Dr. Onia will assist in the medical management of the University's smoking cessation program. UP constituents who desire to quit smoking will receive the 7-phase smoking cessation program for free.
