Educated in Cracow where he attended one of the best Grammar Schools and from 1936 he started his medical studies at the Jagiellonian University.

In 1940 he managed to escape internment and went to France and then Spain where he was caught by Franco's Fascists and put into the concentration camp of Miranda del Ebro. Later he was in Britain, for a short time with the Polish aircraft division; but in 1944-1945 he continued his medical studies in Edinburgh graduating in 1946. Soon he returned to Poland and took up psychiatry at the Psychiatric Clinic of Collegium Medicum in Cracow. As a concentration camp inmate himself he took part in a rehabilitation programme of survivors from the Auschwitz concentration camp.
