About these results
Wellington has no nuclear medicine of its own. The nearest one is at Dubbo Base Hospital Radiology Department in Dubbo, about 46 km away, roughly 42 minutes by road. After that, the options are Lumus Imaging Dubbo in Dubbo (47 km) and PRP Diagnostic Imaging Dubbo in Dubbo (47 km).
Locally, Wellington is covered for x-ray. A referral for that can be done here: everything Wellington has.
For scale, 156 of the 1544 towns we hold in NSW sit further from nuclear medicine than Wellington does.
Across New South Wales, 103 practices are accredited for nuclear medicine and 42 of those are outside the capital. That is the arithmetic behind the distance above — nuclear medicine is not spread evenly, and Wellington sits in one of the gaps.
Accreditation windows: Dubbo Base Hospital Radiology Department to 30 September 2027, Lumus Imaging Dubbo to 30 November 2026 and PRP Diagnostic Imaging Dubbo to 31 May 2027. We drop a modality the day its accreditation lapses, so if it is listed above it is current.
Of the five practices listed, all publish a phone number, all have a website and one lists opening hours. Ring before you go rather than assuming — hours move, and not every accredited scan runs every day.
scanfinder shows you where imaging is available. Your doctor decides which scan you need — you'll need a referral for all of these.
About nuclear medicine. Nuclear medicine uses a small amount of a radioactive tracer, so it needs a licensed department rather than a general imaging room. Accreditation means a practice meets the Medicare requirements for it — it is not a ranking, and we publish no ratings. Distances are straight-line from the centre of the town, so the drive is a little longer.
