About of Peter Ghosh

Peter Ghosh is an Orthopedic Surgeon based in Clayton, VIC, working from 246 Clayton Rd, Clayton, VIC 3168, Australia. His work mainly focuses on problems with the spine and the joints, especially when symptoms are getting in the way of everyday life.


In many cases, people see Peter when they have ongoing back pain, leg pain, or trouble moving because of a disc issue. This can include things like herniated disc problems and invertebral disc disease. At times, symptoms can start slowly, then become sharper or more constant, and that’s when a closer look helps.


Peter also looks after people with arthritis. Arthritis can affect how you walk, how you use your hands, and even how you sleep. It might be something that flares up now and then, or something that slowly builds over time. The aim is to work out what’s driving the pain and discuss options that fit real life.


When surgery is needed, Peter offers a range of procedures. For some disc problems, microdiscectomy may be considered, depending on the situation. If a person has more complex disc-related issues, spinal fusion is one of the surgical options that can be discussed. The right approach depends on the pattern of symptoms, scan findings, and how much the condition is affecting day-to-day function.


Peter’s practice is built around helping patients understand what’s going on and what to expect next. He supports people through the pathway from assessment to treatment planning, including when that treatment may involve surgery. The process can feel stressful, so clear steps and plain language matter.


In terms of training, Peter is trained in orthopaedic surgery, with a focus on spine and musculoskeletal conditions. Over time, he has focused his work on the kinds of operations that are commonly used for disc and arthritis conditions, so he can guide patients through realistic choices.


No extra research or clinical trial details are listed here, but Peter’s goal stays the same: to provide practical care for people dealing with stubborn spine and joint problems, from first discussions through to surgical management when it’s appropriate.
