Sometimes your hearing and balance journey needs a little more care and specialist attention. That’s why our Wantirna clinic is also home to visiting ENT specialists and a vestibular physiotherapist – people we know, trust and work alongside every day, right here under the same roof
We’ve built relationships with the specialists below because we trust them, and because keeping your care connected matters to us. They run their own independent practices, their own fees, and their own bookings. We can recommend these specialists with confidence for continuity of your care.
Referral requirements differ depending on who you’re seeing. The ENT specialists need a referral from your GP. The vestibular physiotherapist doesn’t require one for a private consultation, however, a referral is needed if you’re claiming through Medicare (EPC), DVA, WorkSafe or TAC.
Most hearing concerns are straightforward, but every so often something more complex comes up, and it helps to already be in the right place. Our Wantirna clinic hosts ENT specialists who consult on-site, so if your GP recommends a referral, you’re heading somewhere we already know and trust, not starting from scratch.

Most ENT referrals start with a hearing assessment.
If it’s been a while since your last one, start there.
If your assessment with us points to ongoing balance rehabilitation, you don’t need to go looking for someone new. Melbourne Dizziness & Balance Clinic (MDBC) consults right here at Wantirna, and this is who we recommend when vestibular physio is the right next step, so you can move from assessment to treatment with ease. Specialising in conditions like BPPV, vestibular neuritis/labyrinthitis, vestibular migraine, persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD), age-related dizziness and falls, working closely with our specialist audiologists for end to end care.
You can book directly with Melbourne Dizziness & Balance Clinic. No referral needed for a private consultation. A referral from your GP is only required if you’re claiming through Medicare (EPC), DVA, WorkSafe or TAC.
