David A. Parker is an Orthopedic Surgeon based in Chatswood, NSW. His clinic is located at 445 Victoria Avenue, Chatswood, NSW 2067. He helps people who are dealing with painful joints, limited movement, and the kind of wear-and-tear problems that can build up over time.
A big part of his work is around the knee and related issues. That can include knee replacement when a joint has been badly affected, as well as arthritis and osteoarthritis that make everyday tasks harder. He also looks after people with hypermobile joints, where joints can feel unstable, sore, or frustratingly “loose” in daily life. At times, he may discuss options like osteotomy, which can be considered when the knee’s alignment is part of the problem.
He also treats acute pain, and he understands that pain doesn’t always come with a neat answer right away. Some people come in after an injury or a flare-up, and others arrive because symptoms have slowly grown worse. In many cases, the goal is to reduce pain, improve function, and help you move more comfortably, whether that means staying active with the right plan or moving toward a procedure when it’s needed.
Alongside orthopedic care, his practice also includes surgery for appendicitis and appendectomy, and he performs endoscopy. That mix means he can support patients through different types of problems, not just joint and bone issues. Complex Regional Pain Syndrome is also part of what he manages, which can be tough and confusing for people and families. When symptoms don’t fit the usual pattern, a steady, practical approach matters.
Information about research projects, clinical trials, and formal education details isn’t shown here. What is clear is that Dr Parker’s focus stays on real-world outcomes: getting people assessed properly, answering questions in plain language, and putting together a care plan that makes sense for the situation they’re in.
