Health professional information
Clinical service overview
We specialise looking after patients with malignant haematology (acute leukaemias, MDSs, MPNs, lymphomas) and non-malignant (bone marrow failure syndromes, immunodeficiency) conditions requiring a stem cell transplant.
We perform both allogeneic (donated peripheral blood stem cell from family or unrelated donors from national and international registries) and autologous (patients own stem cells) stem cell transplants. We are one of only 3 adult allogeneic transplant centres in Victoria.

MBS-billed service
On the doctor’s behalf, Bayside Health can bulk bill the cost of the consultation for some services through Medicare. This means there is no out of pocket expense to the patient.
MBS-billed services require a current referral. Provide your patient with a 12 month referral to see the specialist of your choice at the requested clinic.
Referrals must be addressed to a named specialist or the Head of service, listed at the top of this page. Clinic consultants are listed on every clinic page.
Note that from time to time, your patient may be seen by another specialist in the clinic, in order to expedite their treatment.
