This November, as part of Lung Cancer Awareness Month, we’re focusing on raising awareness about the steps you can take to lower your risk of lung cancer.
While smoking remains the leading cause of lung cancer, there are several other proactive measures you can take to protect your health, including maintaining a healthy lifestyle, reducing exposure to harmful chemicals, and monitoring any respiratory symptoms. Early detection through screening is key to improving outcomes.
We are committed to supporting you in staying ahead of lung cancer with the National Lung Cancer Screening Program. If you're between 50-70 years old, have a history of smoking, and show no symptoms of lung cancer, you may be eligible for a free screening. Early detection through a low-dose CT scan can make all the difference in improving survival rates.
Book an appointment with your GP today to discuss your eligibility for the screening program.
