ENThe article analyses the group of physicians who served the most prominent Protestants in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania – Prince of Olyka and Nesvizh (Polish: Ołyka i Nieśwież) Mikołaj the Black Radziwiłł, who was also a Voivode of Vilnius, and the Biržai-Dubingiai (Polish: Birże-Dubinki) line of the Radziwiłł family. The analysis of this group of professionals showed the dominance of Protestant denomination among them. The Radziwiłłs employed more willingly Protestant physicians at their court, and were more willing to go to the centers of Protestantism (Gdańsk or Lublin) for treatment. In addition, they supported the famous European Protestant physicians of their time. Nevertheless, faced with the fact that in the GDL, especially in the sixteenth century, there was a lack of qualified specialists, magnates did not hesitate to approach medics of another faith if they were indeed better specialists or if there were no Protestant physicians close at hand. When in need, religious views were no longer of importance, and Catholic, Orthodox or Jewish doctors were employed. All physicians treating the members of the Protestant Radziwiłł family were the professionals of the highest caliber. The article concludes that both the tradition of employing professional physicians, the system of protection, and especially the family model (a considerable number of mixed marriages in terms of religion) had a great impact on the selection of the Protestant physicians of the Radziwiłłs.
