Nuclear medicine near Port Fairy, VIC

There is no nuclear medicine service in Port Fairy. The nearest one is at Lake Imaging Warrnambool SJOG Hospital in Warrnambool, about 21 km away, roughly 27 minutes by road. After that, the options are Vision Radiology Colac in Colac (118 km) and Benson Radiology Mount Gambier Crouch Street North in Mount Gambier (142 km).

There are seven nuclear medicine practices within 200 km of Port Fairy altogether — the five listed are simply the nearest.

Port Fairy 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 Lumus Imaging Warrnambool in Warrnambool, 20 km away.

To put 21 km in context: of the 850 VIC towns we hold, 252 are further than Port Fairy from a nuclear medicine service. It is a real trip, and worth planning as one.

Across Victoria, 63 practices are accredited for nuclear medicine and 15 of those are outside the capital. That is the arithmetic behind the distance above — nuclear medicine is not spread evenly, and Port Fairy sits in one of the gaps.

Accreditation windows: Lake Imaging Warrnambool SJOG Hospital to 30 November 2027, Vision Radiology Colac to 30 November 2027 and Benson Radiology Mount Gambier Crouch Street North 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 three list opening hours. Ring before you go rather than assuming — hours move, and not every accredited scan runs every day.
