For scale, 130 of the 559 towns we hold in WA sit further from nuclear medicine than Mount Barker does.
Across Western Australia, 26 practices are accredited for nuclear medicine and 6 of those are outside the capital. That is the arithmetic behind the distance above — nuclear medicine is not spread evenly, and Mount Barker sits in one of the gaps.
Current Medicare accreditation runs: TeleMed Albany to 30 September 2027. We drop a modality the day its accreditation lapses, so if it is listed above it is current.
Of the one practice listed, all publish a phone number, all have a website and none publishes opening hours we could confirm. A phone call before you travel is worth it: a practice can be accredited for a scan and still not run it daily.
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.
