Scientific Council

LUX MED was the first private company who established a Scientific Council. The Council consists of distinguished medical practitioners of different specialties. The main specialties represented in the council include surgery, cardiology, gynaecology, internal diseases, tropical diseases, dermatology, otolaryngology and transplantology. The council comprises of many professors and associate professors and serves as a supervisory body. It supervises LUX MED's medical operations and works on the introduction of new standards and procedures. With regard to complex and sensitive cases the Council can also organize a consulting group which would consist of Poland's most distinguished medical practitioners in the given field. LUX MED also cooperates with a Boston-based organisation called Best Doctors. Thanks to Best Doctors we can - in the most complex and difficult cases - consult the world's leading specialists.

The Scientific Council is chaired by Professor Jerzy Szczerban, M.D., the former director of the WHO European Bureau, the former president of the Medical Academy in Warsaw and the former director of the Scientific Council at the Ministry of Health.
