After many years, Electroencephalogram (EEG) services are back in Port Macquarie.
At this stage, Routine EEG and Sleep-Deprived EEGs are being offered. They will be performed at:
- Neurology New South Wales
- Suite 5, 10B Highfields Circuit, Port Macquarie NSW 2444
They will be performed by Sr Candice Conroy, who is an experienced ICU Nurse at Port Macquarie Base Hospital.
Candice expressed her interest in offering EEG services given the desperate need faced by patients. Candice was trained in Sydney at the Westmead Comprehensive Epilepsy Centre and T.Y. Nelson Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery at The Children’s Hospital Westmead.
Neurology NSW are excited about bringing EEG back to the region and they hope to be of service to your patients.
A fillable PDF referral has been provided and correspondence via email is preferred.
At this stage EEG is only being offered as a private service, but hopefully a public option will be available soon. The cost of any EEG is $300 with an MBS rebate of $119.25 returned to the patient. They are accepting referrals for patients 16 years and over with an extension to all ages to occur later in 2024.
