I guess you mean the Western Hospital in Footscray do you. Well there are plenty of nice areas where you could live fairly close by. My friend's son is a specialist at the Western and he lives in North Melbourne and its easy access for him. Altona, Kensington is a nice niche. Ascot Vale. All close to the city. Williamstown is very nice. Have a look at realestate.com.au and look around the area where the hospital is situate. There are a lot of good schools in the inner areas of Melbourne, private and public.
Good luck you are coming at the right time of the year as the warmer weather is with us now.
