Papanicolaou test (PAP analysis) in MediSpace (Centrum Medyczne MediSpace)
About the clinic
A Papanicolaou test (PAP analysis) at MediSpace in Warsaw, Poland, screens for precancerous cervical changes to help prevent cancer development. The clinic offers both standard microscopic examination and liquid-based cytology for improved sample clarity. Patients can visit this specialized center to receive a professional swab and expert interpretation in a private setting.
Diagnostic process and technology
The clinic provides advanced liquid-based cytology (LBC). This method places the collected cells in a special liquid rather than directly on a glass slide. This technique removes blood and mucus from the sample, which helps the laboratory identify abnormal cells more accurately.
- Cell collection. A gynecologist uses a dedicated brush to take a sample from the cervix during a pelvic exam.
- Microscopic analysis. A cytologist examines the smear to check for cell abnormalities.
- Result reporting. The patient receives a report which the gynecologist then explains during a follow-up discussion.
- Advanced screening. Liquid-based cytology technology helps detect lesions that standard smears might miss.
- Follow-up diagnostics. If results are abnormal, the clinic can arrange a colposcopy on-site for further investigation.
Specialist and experience
Dr. Małgorzata Achremczyk performs the cytology swabs at the clinic. She is a gynecologist who conducts consultations in English, which assists international patients with clear communication. Dr. Achremczyk manages the entire process from the initial swab to the recommendation of follow-up steps.
Preparation for the test
Specific steps are required to ensure the sample is clear and the results are reliable. Patients should not have any active vaginal inflammation at the time of the test. The clinic recommends following these guidelines:
- Sexual activity. Avoid intercourse for at least 24 hours before the examination.
- Medications. Stop using vaginal suppositories or medications four days before the test.
- Menstrual cycle. Schedule the test at least four days after bleeding ends and at least four days before the next period starts.
- Screening frequency. Standard sensitivity is about 40–70%, so regular testing at scheduled intervals is necessary.

MediSpace (Centrum Medyczne MediSpace): more details about the clinic
MediSpace is a private multi-specialty outpatient center in Warsaw. Prof. Dr. Michał Wszoła and Dr. Andrzej Berman founded it in 2024. The clinic runs two modern facilities in the Ochota and Wola districts. It combines specialist consultations, advanced imaging, and outpatient surgery under one roof.
Care Standards and Medical Team
The clinic employs 30 doctors and specialists. They manage long-term treatment across several medical fields. Structured diagnostic programs guide patient care and follow-up.
Dr. Marta Jonas has practiced endocrinology since 2002. She trained at the Medical University of Warsaw and holds a doctorate in thyreology. Prof. Dr. Michał Wszoła leads surgical and proctology services.
Gastroenterology and Proctology Services
MediSpace offers endoscopic diagnostics for the upper and lower GI tract. These procedures allow direct visualization and immediate treatment. The gastroenterology department includes:
- Gastroscopy – examines the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum with biopsy capabilities.
- Colonoscopy – assesses the large intestine to detect changes or remove polyps.
- Capsule endoscopy – uses a pill-sized camera to evaluate the small intestine.
- EUS – combines endoscopy with ultrasound for detailed internal imaging.
The proctology unit treats hemorrhoids across four stages of severity. Specialists use Barron banding, sclerotherapy, or laser removal based on the condition. Care for anal fissures and perianal abscesses is also available.
Urology and Endocrinology Specialization
The urology department treats kidney stones, prostate enlargement, and male genital disorders. Surgeons perform phimosis and short frenulum procedures using minimally invasive techniques.
For urinary incontinence, the clinic uses uroflowmetry. This non-invasive test measures urine flow strength and volume. Results help diagnose voiding disorders. Treatment often includes pelvic floor exercises and urogynecological physiotherapy.
Endocrinology focuses on thyroid health. Specialists manage Hashimoto's disease, Graves-Basedowa, and thyroid nodules. Long-term monitoring plans are available for autoimmune thyroiditis.
Technology and Specialized Programs
MediSpace uses modern diagnostic equipment for low-impact evaluations. Digital X-ray devices deliver necessary imaging with minimal radiation. Other tools include USG, Holter monitoring, and dermatoscopy for non-invasive skin mole checks.
Two programs address complex conditions:
- SIBOSpace – a coordinated pathway for Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO).
- MediBar – a multidisciplinary obesity program combining diet, psychology, and pharmacotherapy.
Orthopedic patients can receive collagen and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections. These treat musculoskeletal injuries and degenerative joint diseases.
International Patient Services
MediSpace assists international patients with specific medical needs. English-speaking specialists handle endocrinology consultations. SIBO/IMO program patients receive a dedicated coordinator throughout diagnosis and treatment.
Both locations offer laboratory testing on Saturdays. The Warsaw facilities are accessible to international visitors and provide care for multiple conditions in one place.
