Purpose: Smoking is one of the most common addictions. Smoking is also common among medical doctors. In this study, the characteristics of cigarette addiction among doctors in a province in Anatolia and suggestions to prevent this addiction are presented.
Materials and Methods: 363 physicians were contacted for the study, and 121 physicians voluntarily participated in the study. The socio-demographic characteristics of the doctors participating in the study were recorded, their smoking status; branch, the unit they work in, professional experience and dependency levels.
Results: 92 (76.0%) of the doctors participating in the study were male, 29 (24.0%) were female, and the mean age was 39.82±9.53 years. The relationship between the duties of doctors and smoking behavior is statistically significant (p=0.007). A significant portion of the resident doctors (62.5%) have never smoked. 68.4% of dentists and 52.4% of specialists smoke. The difference between the branches of specialist physicians and the groups in terms of smoking behavior and professional experience was not statistically significant (p=0.339, p=0.065, respectively).
Conclusion: Smoking, one of the types of tobacco use, is a substance addiction. Smoking is common in physicians. It is seen that the first time doctors start smoking is most frequently during the medical school education period. Tobacco addiction should be emphasized in the first years of medical school education and training. In addition, routine follow-up and control will be a useful practice by registering the doctors in the smoking cessation polyclinics in the hospitals where they work.
