Houston, M.D., is currently the Director of Science and Community Health Advocacy and Patient Safety at the American Medical Association (“AMA”) in Chicago, Illinois. Dr. Houston received his medical degree in 1977 from the University of Mississippi and is Board Certified in family medicine. Prior to joining the AMA, Dr. Houston taught at three medical schools and was on staff at six different hospitals. </p> <p>Dr. Houston testified on behalf of the AMA that it is the AMA’s official position that the tobacco companies misled the public through advertising. He testified that the AMA believes that low tar and light cigarettes are not safer and that the terms “light” and “low tar” misled consumers. He further testified that the AMA strongly endorses the conclusions of the National Cancer Institute’s Monograph 13.</p> </div>  </div>  <div id="sidebar"> <div id="practices"> <div id="freeconsol" onclick="location.href='http://www.koreintillery.com/';" style="cursor: pointer;"> <h1>Please Visit</h1> <p style="font-size:16px;"><strong>www.KoreinTillery.com</strong></p> </div> <div id="freeconsol" > <h1>866-711-4329</h1> <p style="font-size:16px;"><strong>Free Consultation </strong></p> </div> <div id="sidebarform"> <form action="emailer.php" method="post"> <p style="margin:0; padding:0;">Please complete the form below.</p> <fieldset class="contact"> <legend>General Information</legend> <div> <label for="firstname">First Name</label> <input type="text" id="fname" name="fname"> </div> <div> <label for="firstname">Last Name</label> <input type="text" id="lname" name="lname"> </div> <div> <label for="lastname">E-mail</label> <input type="text" id="email" name="email"> </div> <div> <label for="lastname">Phone</label> <input type="text" id="phone" name="phone"> </div> <div> <label for="lastname">Street</label> <input type="text" id="street" name="street"> </div> <div> <label for="lastname">City</label> <input type="text" id="city" name="city"> </div> <div> <label for="lastname">State</label> <input type="text" id="state" name="state"> </div> <div> <label for="lastname">Zip</label> <input type="text" id="zip" name="zip"> </div> <div> <label for="lastname">Date</label> <input type="text" id="date" name="date"> </div> </fieldset> <fieldset class="login"> <legend>Personal Information</legend> <div> <label for="textfield">Diagnosis is:</label> <textarea name="diagnosis" class="form_input2" cols="20" rows="3"></textarea> </div> <div> <label for="lastname">Date of Diagnosis</label> <input type="text" id="diagnosisdate" name="diagnosisdate"> </div> </fieldset> <div align="right"><button type="submit" id="submit-go">Submit</button></div> </form> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div id="footer"> Korein Tillery © 2009.
