A pioneer of modern and advanced ultrasound in Poland and an internal medicine specialist with 25 years of experience in Poland and Europe in the field of ultrasound diagnostics, gastroenterology, cardiology, angiology and perioperative care. He has treated patients at renowned clinical centres in Lower Silesia, as well as in hospitals in the United Kingdom; He trained in Germany, Austria and Italy. He graduated from the Medical Academy in Wrocław in 2000 and obtained his specialisation in internal medicine in 2010. He is a certified physician of the Polish Ultrasound Society in the field of vascular examinations. He is also a specialist in healthcare management. Lecturer and teacher.

Professional experience

He gained clinical experience in Poland in cardiology departments, including the Cardiac Diagnostics Subdivision of the Cardiac Surgery Clinic of the Medical Academy in Wrocław, the Cardiology Department of the Provincial Hospital in Jelenia Góra, the Cardiology Department of the Provincial Hospital in Legnica, as well as in the Internal Medicine Departments in Legnica and Bogatynia, and medical research laboratories (ultrasound, cardiological diagnostics, gastrointestinal endoscopy).

In his hospital work, he dealt with advanced clinical procedures such as pacemaker and implantable cardiac defibrillator checks, intracardiac electrode implantations, tilt table tests, intensive cardiac care, ventilator therapy, endoscopic examinations of the gastrointestinal tract, and ultrasound-guided punctures and drainages.

He completed training and clinical placements abroad, including at Berlin Neuköln Hospital, Klinikum Görlitz, Klinikum der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München in Germany, and Medizinische Universität Wien in Austria. He has treated patients in hospitals in the United Kingdom, in pulmonary medicine wards (Sunderland), cardiology wards (Stoke-On-Trent), medical rehabilitation wards (London Queen Hospital, Heatherwood Hospital Ascot), and has also provided perioperative care to cardiac surgery patients (Nuffield Hospital Leeds, Spire Cardiff Hospital), neurosurgery, orthopaedics, gynaecology, urology and bariatrics (Spire Murrayfield Hospital) in private surgical centres and NHS hospitals.

After returning to Poland, he established, ran and supervised an interdisciplinary ultrasound laboratory in Wrocław and Poland’s first rapid medical diagnostics department at Golden Care Medical Care.

Medical expertise

Since the beginning of his practice, he has been involved in ultrasound diagnostics for both adults and children. He has extensive experience in Doppler ultrasound of the vascular system, contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and multiparametric abdominal ultrasound (MPUS). He also specialises in the diagnosis of skin and soft tissue tumours, lower limb disorders, and advanced internal medicine and gastroenterology diagnostics. In addition, he is involved in the prevention of lifestyle-related diseases and cancer, combining his ultrasound expertise with a broad clinical approach.

Scientific and professional achievements

Dr Szczepański is a renowned lecturer and teacher in the field of clinical ultrasound. He teaches in Poland and other European countries. In 2018, he was the first in Poland and the second in Europe to conduct training in skin and integument ultrasound; this was followed in 2025 by the first international course in Poland, the ‘Interdisciplinary Skin and Integument Ultrasound Course’, conducted in English. In 2024, he was the first in Poland to conduct training on the groundbreaking use of multiparametric ultrasound (MPUS) in the diagnosis of abdominal organs.

In 2025, he conducted Poland’s first international ultrasound training course in English, entitled ‘Interdisciplinary Skin and Integument Ultrasound Course’, as well as Poland’s first ultrasound training course abroad, in Norway.

Dr Szczepański’s professional achievements also include the introduction of pioneering modern diagnostic methods in Poland, such as: R.E.M.S. densitometry without ionising radiation as part of osteoporosis prevention in 2016; contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in 2022. He was the first in Poland to perform an intraoperative CEUS examination during a kidney tumour-sparing surgery at the Marciniak Lower Silesian Hospital in Wrocław. He is currently also conducting pioneering research on the functional assessment of organs using MPUS multiparametric ultrasound.

He has given a series of innovative presentations at renowned Polish medical conferences:

• ‘The use of ultrasound in dermatology and aesthetic medicine’, Innovative Academy of Aesthetic Dermatology in Sopot, 2022;
• ‘Multimodal assessment of abdominal organs in ultrasound using CEUS, elastography, microvascularisation mode and Doppler options’, Congress of the Polish Medical Radiological Society in Wrocław, 2023;
• ‘The use of CEUS in outpatient practice’, Conference of the Polish Ultrasound Society in Bydgoszcz, 2023;
• ‘Spectrum of Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound Utilisation’, Contrast Ultrasound Conference in Gorzów Wielkopolski, 2024;
• ‘The use of skin ultrasound in surgery’, Breast Cancer Oncology and Plastic Surgery Conference in Poznań, 2024;
• ‘Skin and tissue sonography: applications in general surgery, plastic surgery, dermatology, aesthetic medicine and oncology’, 4th Rzeszów Ultrasound Days, 2025.
