Moonee Valley Specialist Centre offers the following hepatology, gastroenterology and screening services in Melbourne.
Melbourne Bowel Cancer Screening
Our team’s primary goal is to detect bowel cancer in its early stages, and respond proactively for increased chances of a full recovery.
Iron Infusions
If you have been diagnosed with an iron deficiency, your doctor might recommend an intravenous iron infusion to bring your ferritin levels back to normal. MVS Centre can assist with this. We can also assist with pathology referrals to check your iron levels and our onsite nurse will email your results and plan. Referrals are great but pathology results within 6 months are sufficient.

They take less than 30 minutes and our nurses will provide test results and emailed simple to understand explanations to understand your next steps, if any.
