In this episode of RCP Medicine podcasts, Dr Rebecca Kuruvilla discusses e-cigarettes and vaping with the RCP’s special advisor on Tobacco, Professor Sanjay Agrawal. It is an area that many physicians are unclear on how to advise their patients on. In this episode, Sanjay aims to shed a light on e-cigarettes and their role on health and he will also discuss the recent report he has co-authored “E-cigarettes and harm reduction: an evidence review” for the RCP. Sanjay will explain how we should be advising our patients on e-cigarettes looking at the current evidence.  

Sanjay is a Consultant in Respiratory and Critical care medicine at the University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust. He has a specialist interest in treatment of tobacco dependency and NHS financial management, alongside clinical care for patients with interstitial lung disease, lung cancer and patients with critical illness. Sanjay Chairs the RCP Tobacco advisory group and is the National Speciality Advisor on Tobacco to NHS England.
