MRI near Bunyip, VIC

Bunyip does not have an MRI scanner. The closest is Imaging Associates Drouin, 12 km away in Drouin — about 14 minutes in the car. After that, the options are Imaging Associates Warragul in Warragul (20 km) and I-MED Radiology Pakenham in Pakenham (21 km).

130 practices within 200 km of Bunyip are accredited for MRI in total; the five above are the closest by straight-line distance from the centre of town.

The eligible ones are Imaging Associates Drouin, Imaging Associates Warragul and I-MED Radiology Casey — they appear on the Government's Medicare-eligible MRI list (last updated 17 February 2026). I-MED Radiology Pakenham runs an accredited MRI unit that is not on the list, so ask what an MRI there would cost you.

Bunyip has no accredited imaging practice of its own that we can see in the register, so any scan means travelling. The closest imaging of any kind is Imaging Associates Drouin in Drouin, 12 km away.

To put 12 km in context: of the 850 VIC towns we hold, 282 are further than Bunyip from a MRI service. It is a real trip, and worth planning as one.

Across Victoria, 140 practices are accredited for MRI and 40 of those are outside the capital. That is the arithmetic behind the distance above — MRI is not spread evenly, and Bunyip sits in one of the gaps.

Current Medicare accreditation runs: Imaging Associates Drouin to 30 November 2026, Imaging Associates Warragul to 30 June 2027 and I-MED Radiology Pakenham to 31 July 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 five list opening hours. A phone call before you travel is worth it: a practice can be accredited for a scan and still not run it daily.
