About of David J. Price

David J. Price is a Hematologist based at 792 Elizabeth Street, Melbourne, VIC 3000. He looks after people who have health issues linked to the blood, and he also helps when infections or other illnesses can affect blood counts and wellbeing.


In many cases, his work involves conditions like glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency, anaemia, and haemolysis, including congenital hemolytic anaemia. Blood problems like these can show up as tiredness, feeling unwell, or changes picked up on blood tests. At times, the cause can be linked with certain infections or stress on the body, so care often needs to cover more than just the blood result.


He also supports patients who are dealing with infections that can be serious or that may need close follow-up. This can include illnesses such as malaria, sepsis, flu, COVID-19, HIV/AIDS, and bacterial infections like impetigo, strep throat, and campylobacter infection. In everyday terms, that can mean helping teams manage the complications that sometimes come with these conditions, including changes in the blood.


Some people he sees also have complex medical needs alongside their main issue. For example, high potassium level can be part of the bigger picture in some cases. There are also conditions listed in his profile such as autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia, as well as eye conditions like coloboma of optic papilla. The focus still stays on safe, practical care and making sure blood-related issues are not missed.


David J. Price’s education and work history details are not listed in this profile. Clinical trials information isn’t included either. What is clear is that he works with a range of blood-related and infection-related problems, in a calm, real-world way.
