Imaging Associates Wonthaggi

Imaging Associates Wonthaggi runs imaging services from Wonthaggi Hospital Medical Imaging Department, 235 Graham St, Wonthaggi VIC 3995. Its Medicare Location Specific Practice Number is 12203, and the register lists it as accredited for x-ray, ultrasound, CT and MRI. That accreditation has run since 15 July 2024 and is current to 30 November 2026.

Medicare-eligible MRI. This practice appears on the Australian Government's list of Medicare-eligible MRI locations (list last updated 17 February 2026). That means a Medicare rebate is possible for an MRI done here. It does not mean every MRI here is rebated: that turns on the item your referral asks for and on what this practice charges. Ask them when you book.

Phone 03 5644 2050, their website and listed hours monday – friday: 9:00 am – 5:00 pm; saturday: 8:00 am – 12:00 pm; sunday: closed. We take contact details from the practice's own listings where we can.

There are two accredited practices in Wonthaggi; which one suits you is a question of hours, wait and what they charge, not of accreditation.

For nuclear medicine and PET you would need somewhere else: the nearest nuclear medicine is I-MED Radiology Peninsula Private Hospital in Langwarrin, about 62 km away and the nearest PET is I-MED Radiology Frankston Private Hospital in Frankston, about 64 km away.

The nearest other accredited practice is Bass Coast Radiology / Phillip Island Radiology in Wonthaggi, about 1 km away. Bayside Health (Korumburra Hospital) in Korumburra is the next closest at 29 km. Phillip Island Radiology is 34 km away in Cowes. A referral is generally not tied to one clinic, so if the wait here is long it is worth asking whether another practice can see you sooner.

Services this practice lists itself: CT scans, Interventional Radiology Procedures, Ultrasound and X-Ray. That is the practice's own wording, kept within what it is accredited for — we do not treat a chain's national service menu as a claim about one branch.

What we hold about this site comes from the Medicare LSPN register and healthdirect's directory, plus the practice's own website.

An MRI uses a magnetic field rather than x-rays, and the machines are expensive, so far fewer places have one.
