  • How Clinical Hypnosis Can Unlock Untapped Potential

    I have been using clinical hypnosis as part of my pediatric medical practice for the past 25 years. In my new book, Changing Children’s Lives with Hypnosis: A Journey to the Center, I tell about how I was introduced to the field of hypnosis and how it dramatically changed my approach to medical...

  • Should the children of smokers get lung cancer screenings?

    Exposure to cigarette smoke in childhood can lead to the development of asthma. However, it is very unlikely to cause cancer in a 4-year-old because that requires many years of exposure to smoke. Therefore, I would not have your daughter screened for cancer. Your husband should be encouraged strongly to take his cigarette smoking out of the house because it is wrong for him to expose your daughter to more smoke that can hurt her lungs, and also cause her to develop ear infections. Your husband should certainly undergo cancer screenings as long as he continues to smoke. Ran D. Anbar, M.D. ?

  • Is general anesthesia used for lung resection surgery?

    Yes, general anesthesia is used for a lung resection because it is a complicated and large surgery. Ran D. Anbar, M.D. ? P. 858.201.4001 F. 858.586.1199? www.centerpointmedicine.com Author: Changing Children's Lives with Hypnosis: A Journey to the Center READ MORE

  • My son lost his inhaler. What should I do?

    Your mother's inhaler could have a different medication that may not help your son. It may even hurt him. You should not give him your mother's inhaler. Instead, call your doctor to prescribe a new one. Ran D. Anbar, M.D. READ MORE

  • My son died of cystic fibrosis when he was a teenager. Is it possible for his brother to get it too?

    Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease, yes. If your unborn son has the same father as your other son, then there is a 25% chance that he could have CF. If he has another father, then his odds of having CF are less than 3%. Your unborn child can be tested for CF before birth. In the United States, all babies are screened for CF at birth. For more information, you may want to consult with the CF Center at which your older son received care, or you can discuss your question with the pediatrician who will take care of your baby. I am sorry for your loss of your older son. Ran D. Anbar, M.D. READ MORE
