About of David J. Graham

David J. Graham is an Orthopedic Surgeon based in Southport, QLD, working from 108 Nerang Street, Southport, QLD 4217, Australia.


His work is mainly about helping people with problems involving bones, joints, and the nerves around them. That can include things like arthritis and osteoarthritis, long-lasting joint pain, and issues where joints or bones don’t heal in the usual way.


Many patients he sees also have hand and wrist conditions. This can include carpal tunnel symptoms, trigger thumb, tenosynovitis, and scaphoid non-union. At times, people come in with ongoing problems that have not settled with simpler treatment, and they want a clearer plan for what to do next.


He also looks after people who have pain from changes in the spine or other areas where nerves can get irritated. Procedures listed in his service work include rhizotomy and laminectomy, which are aimed at reducing nerve-related pain. Nerve decompression and brachial plexopathy care are also part of the mix, especially where nerves are under pressure or not working properly.


In some cases, his practice supports children and young people, including conditions like osteomyelitis in children and chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis. He also works with people who have spasticity, including cerebral palsy and spastic diplegia in infancy, where treatment may focus on easing tight muscles and improving function.


For some patients, surgery may involve shaping or fixing bone, such as osteotomy and bone graft. Other listed options include trapeziectomy and synovectomy, along with procedures like acromicric dysplasia and endoscopy in selected situations. The goal is usually to get the area stable, reduce pain, and help you move more comfortably.


Details about his experience and training aren’t fully listed here, but he does treat a broad range of musculoskeletal and nerve-related conditions. Research and clinical trials information also isn’t provided on this page, so it’s best to ask the clinic directly if you want to know what studies are being considered for your specific problem.
