Vaping, toking & other things kids shouldn’t do (but may do)


Dr. Charles Park and Dr. Hy Gia Park gave a talk to parents at the Colorado Academy on the risks of vaping and toking. Topics ranged from youth drug use trends to the increase in overdose deaths among U.S. teenagers, fentanyl, addictions, and the brain’s developing vulnerability due to drug use. Included in this blog is the slideshow used during the presentation.


"I feel the Parks have a special way of treating patients that I am not used to. I have made significant progress since starting. I feel they really care and are willing to think outside of the box to help someone. I wish more providers were like them. I think more people would get better."
