For more complex cases that require surgery that must be performed in Sydney, we have developed processes to make the patient’s experience as seamless as possible. For instance, a patient in Wagga will most likely be reluctant, let alone anxious, at the idea of repeated visits to Sydney. So we have streamlined the treatment process such that only one visit to Sydney would be required.
If you do not have anywhere to stay in Sydney we have prepared a list of accommodation options close to St Vincent's Hospital.
Please note that this list of accommodation providers in the area is in no way a recommendation for them and we are in no way affiliated with them. The arrangements you make to stay at any of these establishments is a private arrangement between you and the provider.
NSW Health operates the Isolated Patients Travel and Accommodation Assistance Scheme (IPTAAS).
IPTAAS provides financial assistance from the NSW Government towards your travel and accommodation costs when you need to travel long distances for specialised health treatment that is not available locally.
