Susan J. Gordon is a lymphedema specialist based in Bedford Park, Adelaide (SA 5042). Her work is mainly about helping people who live with ongoing swelling and other lymph-related health issues, where getting the right care can make daily life feel a bit more manageable.
In her practice, Susan looks after patients dealing with lymphedema. She also cares for people with lymphatic filariasis and other worm-related (helminth) infections that can affect the lymph system. At times, that care also overlaps with skin issues like cellulitis, which can flare up when swelling and skin health aren’t doing well.
Some patients she sees have conditions linked to how the lymph system works from an early age, including Milroy disease. Others may have problems connected to specific infections and persistent inflammation. She focuses on listening to what’s going on and working out practical ways to support comfort, reduce swelling where possible, and help people feel more in control.
Susan also supports patients with some non-lymph conditions. These can include cervical spondylosis and facet joint syndrome, which affect the neck and can bring pain or stiffness. She may also work with people who have Meige disease, a condition that can affect face and jaw movements.
Experience is built through the types of cases she sees day to day. Her clinical work involves caring for people with the conditions listed above, and staying on top of changes that can happen over time, especially when swelling, infection risk, or symptoms shift.
