On 5 October 2024, the ‘Smile without Fear’ conference on oncology prevention and vigilance was held in Gorlice. The event brought together specialists from various fields, including law, medicine, and onco-cosmetology, with the objective of raising awareness of cancer prevention.

At the conference, Kamil Zawicki and Ernestyna Niemiec, attorneys-at-law, presented an interactive case study titled Legal Aspects of Liability in Physician Practice, with Special Reference to Oncological Vigilance. During the presentation, they addressed a range of topics related to the legal liability of doctors, including diagnostic errors, the duty of continuing professional development, and civil, criminal, and disciplinary liability.

The conference proved an invaluable source of knowledge for both the legal and medical professions. We want to thank all participants for their commitment and active participation in the event!
