Patrick Thaidy, 60, was last seen at his home on Delasala Drive at Macquarie Hills about 12am on Sunday.
Police said Mr Thaidy has dementia and diabetes and may appear disoriented to members of the public.
His family reported him missing. Police have canvassed the Macquarie Hills area but have not found him.
He is described as being 180cm tall, slim build, thin grey coloured hair and a short grey beard.
Mr Thaidy walks with a stoop and is frail. He was last seen wearing grey Everlast track pants, a blue Everlast long sleeve t-shirt and black shoes.
His hair is cut short in a crew cut style and he is unshaven, with black/grey facial hair.
Police said Mr Thaidy left home without his dentures, so he may look different to how he appears in the image above.
While the Westpac chopper helps with the search in from the air on Friday, police and rescue personnel will continue to look for Mr Thaidy.
