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.
