Dr Ing said the prevalence of lung cancer is a lot higher in cities that have bad air pollution such as Beijing or Delhi, and the same could be said for Sydney down the track.
"In five, 10, 15 years we won't know until then, there may be a spike in the prevalence of lung cancer," he said.A patient at the new clinic, Rhonda Wright, has progressive lung disease and the smoke hanging around Sydney in recent weeks meant she was barely able to leave her house."It's like you're suffocating but you're awake.
Due to the high demand for specialists, MQ Health's respiratory clinic has set up a dedicated service for patients affected by the bushfire smoke so they're seen within days, rather than a few months. It has also cut out-of-pocket fees by over 70 per cent to make the service accessible to more people.
If you would like to arrange an appointment, please call 02 9812 3130. The Clinic will be available each weekday during the bushfire season and as long as there is demand for the service.
