West Wyalong has no nuclear medicine of its own. The closest is Griffith Base Hospital/Radiology Dept, 114 km away in Griffith — about 1 hr 56 min in the car. After that, the options are Imaging Associates Wagga Wagga in Wagga Wagga (133 km) and I-MED Radiology Wagga Wagga in Wagga Wagga (134 km).

Locally, West Wyalong is covered for x-ray. A referral for that can be done here: everything West Wyalong has.

For scale, 41 of the 1544 towns we hold in NSW sit further from nuclear medicine than West Wyalong does.

A 114 km trip is a day out of your life, not an errand. Ask your referring doctor about the patient travel assistance scheme in your state, and ask the nearest hospital whether a visiting service ever covers West Wyalong — rosters like that do not appear in the accreditation register.

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 West Wyalong sits in one of the gaps.

Accreditation windows: Griffith Base Hospital/Radiology Dept to 31 August 2027, Imaging Associates Wagga Wagga to 30 June 2027 and I-MED Radiology Wagga Wagga to 31 July 2027. We drop a modality the day its accreditation lapses, so if it is listed above it is current.

Of the four 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.
