MD, PhD Michał Bednarek

Pulmonologist, specialist in pulmonary and internal diseases

I have many years of hospital and outpatient clinical experience focused on obstructive respiratory diseases (asthma, COPD, smoking cessation, home oxygen therapy, non-invasive ventilation) and on the diagnosis and treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea (polysomnography, CPAP therapy). I defended my doctoral dissertation on the topic of sleep apnoea. I have scientific and teaching achievements for which I have received awards.
