Dr. Szapiels expertise lies in functional neurosurgery, a specialized field dedicated to addressing neurological conditions through targeted interventions. She is highly skilled in the placement of deep brain stimulators for movement disorders and utilizes advanced neuromodulation techniques for conditions such as medically refractory epilepsy, including vagus nerve stimulators and responsive neurostimulation devices. Additionally, she offers pain management solutions through various stimulators and performs general neurosurgery procedures, including spinal surgeries and brain tumor removals.

Additionally, she obtained substantial experience with other neuromodulation methods, including spinal cord and occipital nerve stimulation for pain management.
