About Our Illawarra Clinics

PRP’s presence in the Illawarra region dates back to 2007, with 2 locations operating out of Wollongong & Shellharbour.

The Wollongong location was a new practice opened by PRP, while Shellharbour was an established radiology practice that PRP purchased.

These locations were strategically chosen to make the services that PRP offer easily accessible for patients in both the northern and southern ends of the Illawarra region.

Better equipment means more accurate results for Illawarra patients

Over the years all PRP's locations have improved with advancements in technology and the improvements in equipment available for the services we provide.

Today both Illawarra practice locations offer the following modalities: CT, Dexa/BMD, Injections & Biopsies, Mammography, MRI, Nuclear Medicine, Ultrasound, Cardiac Services, X-ray.
