Police say fears are growing for an elderly Auckland man with a medical condition who has been missing for two days.

William Davies, who is 74, has not been seen since he left his Albany care home at around 10am on Wednesday morning.

Police Search and Rescue squads are again looking for him again today, combing parks across the North Shore and central Auckland.

Police said Mr Davies' condition was known as PSP, and affected his mobility, balance and ability to think clearly.

They said he had missed a number of doses of medication so they held grave concerns for his health.
