MRI near Wagin, WA

There is no MRI scanner in Wagin. The nearest one is at Apex Radiology South West Health Campus in Bunbury, about 158 km away. After that, the options are SKG Radiology Bunbury in Bunbury (158 km) and Perth Radiological Clinic Bunbury in Bunbury (158 km).

Widen the search to 200 km and there are 21 MRI practices; the closest five are above.

The eligible ones are Apex Radiology South West Health Campus, SKG Radiology Bunbury and Apex Radiology Peel Health Campus — they appear on the Government's Medicare-eligible MRI list (last updated 17 February 2026). Perth Radiological Clinic Bunbury runs an accredited MRI unit that is not on the list, so ask what an MRI there would cost you.

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

To put 158 km in context: of the 559 WA towns we hold, 77 are further than Wagin from a MRI service. It is a real trip, and worth planning as one.

That is a long way to go for a scan, and there is no way to make 158 km shorter. Two things are worth knowing: every state and territory runs a patient travel assistance scheme for people who have to travel for care, and the local health service or your referring doctor can tell you whether you qualify. Some regional hospitals also run visiting services on a roster, which the accreditation register cannot show us — worth one phone call before you plan the trip.

Across Western Australia, 46 practices are accredited for MRI and 10 of those are outside the capital. That is the arithmetic behind the distance above — MRI is not spread evenly, and Wagin sits in one of the gaps.

Accreditation windows: Apex Radiology South West Health Campus to 31 July 2027, SKG Radiology Bunbury to 30 September 2027 and Perth Radiological Clinic Bunbury to 30 June 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 two 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.
