Piotr Rak

General, Oncological Surgery, and Aesthetic Medicine Specialist

I am a specialist in general and oncological surgery, as well as aesthetic medicine. My professional career began in 1995 at the General Surgery Clinic of the Medical University in Grodno (Belarus), where, as an assistant, I specialized in general surgery, microsurgery, and reconstructive surgery. From 1997 to 2003, I worked as a microsurgeon in the Microsurgery Department of the Grodno City Hospital, performing approximately 460 limb reimplantations and developing an original method for biomechanical rehabilitation of reimplanted limbs.

In 2003, I moved to Poland, where I completed my doctoral studies at the Medical University of Gdańsk, earning a PhD in Medical Sciences in 2009. My doctoral dissertation focused on the impact of chemotherapy on the biodegradation of silicon organic compounds following breast reconstruction. Between 2003 and 2015, I worked at the Plastic Surgery Clinic and the Oncological Surgery Clinic at the University Clinical Center (UCK) in Gdańsk.

International Experience and Specialized Training

I have had the privilege of participating in numerous international training programs and initiatives:

- Microsurgery – internship under Prof. W. Kryłow in Moscow (2002).  

- Breast Cancer Unit – training at "HELIOS KLINIK" in Bad Saarow (2011), which enabled me to implement global standards for breast cancer treatment in Poland.  

- I also served as the coordinator of the Population-Based Early Breast Cancer Detection Program in the Pomeranian Voivodeship (2005–2010).

Innovations and Scientific Research

I take pride in my contributions to the advancement of medicine:

- Member of the team that, for the first time in Poland, used stem cells in breast reconstruction with the “Cytori” method.  

- Participant in international studies such as MINDACT, PRAME-AS, and ICON, focusing on modern cancer treatment methods.  

- Author of over 30 scientific publications and a speaker at numerous national and international conferences.

Friendly Medicine Island – My Fulfilled Dream

In 2023, I realized my dream by opening the Friendly Medicine Island – a place where I can share my over 20 years of experience and passion for medicine. My goal is to create a space that is welcoming to both patients and colleagues.

At the clinic, we offer a wide range of procedures in surgery and aesthetic medicine, including:

- Labioplasty, helping patients regain comfort and aesthetic confidence in intimate areas.  

- Upper eyelid surgery, enhancing the appearance of the eyes and improving the field of vision.  

- Removal of skin lesions with histopathological examination, ensuring precise diagnostics.  

- Botulinum toxin (Botox) injections, reducing wrinkles and rejuvenating appearance.

And more…

Languages and Skills

I fluently speak six languages: Polish, Russian, English, Belarusian, French, and German. This allows me to effectively communicate with patients of various nationalities, providing them with the highest standard of medical care.

My career is proof that passion, knowledge, and a desire to help can turn dreams into reality. I warmly invite you to the Friendly Medicine Island – a place that combines a modern approach to medicine with empathy and care for every patient.
