A third man has been charged over the abduction and assault of a Gold Coast nurse last year.

Police allege Joe Brooker, 25, was set upon by a group of four masked and armed men as he walked to his car at Pindara Private Hospital in Benowa on December 1.

The nurse's car crashed into a residential fence in Ashmore, with the owner still inside.

An 18-year-old Arundel man has become the third person to charges over the attack, with offences including unlawful use of a motor vehicle, armed robbery, torture and deprivation of liberty. He was due to appear in Southport Magistrates Court on May 1.

Two other Gold Coast men have previously been charged with the same offences.

It will be alleged the group, wearing balaclavas and armed with knives and a handgun, pushed the nurse into the boot of his car and drove to an ATM at Parkwood and forced him to withdraw cash.
