I have been associated with the Carolina Medical Center clinic since 2009 - initially as part of the Student Science Club, then I completed a specialization training as part of my residency. 

I am a member of the Polish Orthopedic and Traumatological Society, the Polish Arthroscopic Society, the Polish Society of Hand Surgery and the European Society of Sports Traumatology, Knee Surgery and Arthroscopy

The main area of my interest is sports traumatology – treatment of fractures and reconstruction of damaged tendons or ligaments; arthroscopic surgery – especially knee and wrist surgery and hand surgery – including procedures using the WALANT method (Wide-awake Local Anesthesia No Tourniquet). 

In the postoperative period, I stay in touch with the patient in order to ensure the most optimal way of recovery – through supervision of rehabilitation and regular check-ups. In my work, I attach great importance to comprehensive treatment that focuses not only on the structural problem, but also takes into account the patient’s chronic diseases, dietary management and lifestyle changes.

My interests include all dysfunctions of the musculoskeletal system in athletes, as well as pediatric orthopedics and traumatology. I accept children from 3 years of age. I regularly participate in conferences and training abroad. Since 2010, I have been working continuously at the Carolina Medical Center in Warsaw, and since 2017 as a senior assistant at the Hand Surgery Clinic of the University Clinical Hospital in Łódź. In my career, I have treated many competitors and professional athletes. Education 2003 – 2010 1st Faculty of Medicine, Medical University of Warsaw;

For 7 years I have been cooperating with the Junior High School Youth Sports Training Centre in Lublin, taking care of young football school students. At the same time, I work closely with the players of the Górnik Łęczna football club. In 2018, I completed a prestigious internship in the field of traumatology of the musculoskeletal system at Landeskrankenhaus-Universitätsklinikum Graz, where, under the supervision of the best specialists, I improved my surgical skills in the treatment of musculoskeletal system injuries. I participate in many conferences and trainings both in Poland and abroad. I am actively involved in scientific development, which is manifested in scientific cooperation with the Lublin University of Technology in the development and testing of innovative medical devices. In everyday life, I am an active athlete, by which I mean the need for quick and effective treatment for both professional and amateur athletes. Since 2014, I have had the qualifications of a ski instructor at the PI level, and since 2003, the qualifications of a WOPR rescuer.
