Lung Health Checks

A lung health check is an MOT for your lungs; if you are 55- 74 years of age, a smoker or have ever smoked and your GP has this on record then you may be entitled to a FREE lung health check. 

This check is a simple phone call with one of our health professionals, who will go through some questions with you and then decide whether you need a low dose CT scan to see your lungs in more detail.

Even if you think your lungs are fine, it is best to get them checked out – this is because our lungs don’t have any pain receptors in them meaning symptoms can go unnoticed for some time.

Most people will be told they have healthy lungs; however a lung health check can help find problems early – often before you notice anything is wrong.

If lung cancer or another problem with your breathing or lungs is found early, treatment could be simpler and more successful.

To book an appointment with one of our specialist nurses please call 01782 671554 or 01782 671553.
