After graduating from the Faculty of Medicine at the Medical University of Gdańsk and obtaining his medical license in 2013, Professor Jagielski has continuously focused his clinical practice on interventional endoscopic treatment of abdominal diseases. This has become the principal area of both his professional and scientific interests.
His clinical practice is closely linked to his academic career. Professor Jagielski frequently employs innovative minimally invasive treatment methods based on advanced endoscopic techniques. This enables continuous scientific development through the publication of clinical outcomes in patients with pancreatobiliary disorders, particularly those suffering from complications of inflammatory pancreatic diseases.

During this period, under the supervision of Professor Marian Smoczyński, he began and continued his training in interventional gastrointestinal endoscopy, with a particular focus on pancreatobiliary procedures.
Since 2018, he has worked at the Department of General, Gastrointestinal and Oncological Surgery, Collegium Medicum, Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń, at the Ludwik Rydygier Provincial Hospital in Toruń. Under the supervision of Professor Marek Jackowski, he has continued to develop his clinical expertise and academic interests.
In 2016, Professor Jagielski was awarded a PhD in Medical Sciences by the Faculty of Medicine of the Medical University of Gdańsk on the basis of his doctoral dissertation entitled “Interventional Treatment of Pancreatic Necrosis.”
In 2019, he obtained his habilitation (DSc) in Medical Sciences, awarded by the Faculty of Medicine of Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń on the basis of his habilitation thesis entitled “Endoscopic Treatment of the Consequences of Acute Necrotizing Pancreatitis.”
