X-ray in Victoria

There are 416 x-ray practices in Victoria, across 215 towns and suburbs.

116 sit beyond the capital's ring. That leaves large parts of Victoria more than an hour from the nearest one, which is what the town pages below are for.

An x-ray is the quickest and most widely available scan; most practices run one.

Two towns in Victoria have imaging of their own but no x-ray. Each of those has a page giving the nearest machine and the distance from that town — that is the number that decides whether the scan happens.

The towns and suburbs with x-ray include Epping, Werribee, Frankston, Melbourne, East Melbourne, Heidelberg, Box Hill and Berwick.

The heaviest concentrations are Epping (eleven practices), Werribee (ten practices), Frankston (seven practices), Melbourne (seven practices) and East Melbourne (seven practices). Outside those, most towns with x-ray have exactly one practice, which is worth knowing when you are weighing a wait against a drive.

healthdirect records 18 practices in Victoria with x-ray as bulk-billing. That is a provider self-report, not a promise, and the absence of a note against the others means we hold no billing information — not that they charge.

We publish no prices for x-ray anywhere on this site. What we can tell you is where the machines are, who is accredited to run them, and how far you would have to go.
