It’s good to know - there's a new lung cancer screening program.

Lung screening can find lung cancer early, when it’s easier to treat. More than 65% of lung cancers can be successfully treated, if found early.

When lung cancer first starts, it has no symptoms. That’s why screening is important.

Screening could give you more healthy years to spend with your family and community.

Book an appointment with a Njernda GP on 5481 0600.
