Teenagers who are struggling with self-acceptance and with their relationships with their peers. Parents who don’t know how to connect with their child.

I recommend him to paediatric patients who require psychiatric or psychological support in the broadest sense. He is a very good specialist and treats each patient as an individual.

The doctor has a very good way with young patients. My daughter quickly ‘opened up’ and told her about her problems. A good specialist.
2026/10/29
A patient, calm, dedicated and intelligent doctor. She helps her patients in many ways, not just through medication. She takes an individual approach to each patient. It is clear that her work is also her passion. Occasionally – though very rarely, I must say – one does, unfortunately, sense that the doctor is in a less than cheerful mood, which does not have a positive effect on the therapeutic process. Fortunately, such situations do not occur often. As one of Dr Zielińska’s patients, I can, with a clear conscience, recommend her to parents whose children are struggling with various mental health conditions, as well as to patients themselves.

I would recommend this to young people with psychotic disorders.

I would recommend this specialist to people who are very anxious, who suffer from fears and have difficulties achieving their goals.

A specialist in child psychology. I would recommend them to all parents looking for help for their child with behavioural difficulties.

The ideal doctor for children with developmental, social or educational difficulties. I owe a great deal to Ms Zielińska; it’s a shame I didn’t take my daughter to see her sooner.

The appointment with Dr Anna Zielińska-Wieniawska went very well. Unlike our previous encounters with other child psychiatrists, this was an in-person consultation. First, the parents and the child; then the child alone; and finally, a discussion with the parents. This is what we’d been missing before – direct contact with a psychiatrist who assesses the child’s condition and progress in treatment by seeing them during the appointment (up until now, in our dealings with another child psychiatrist, this had been limited to a 15-minute telephone conversation, for which we paid a fortune – something we considered to be wrong).

Our appointment with Dr Anna Zielińska-Wieniawska took place in a very pleasant atmosphere; we felt well looked after and were able to ask about everything we wanted to know. We’ll definitely be visiting again.🥰

Dr Ania is a warm and empathetic doctor. She listens very attentively and formulates accurate hypotheses. She is very thorough. She checks whether her hypotheses are correct. She is very committed. After my first appointment, she asked me to send her my son’s assessment reports from the PPP. I had several of them – quite a lot to read through. Dr Ania read them thoroughly. During the appointment, she knew exactly what was written in each one. She’d consolidated all that information. I’m hugely impressed by Ms Ania. Not 5, but 10 stars. If only there were more specialists like her. Ms Ania, I really appreciate your work, and my son and I will definitely be staying with you. I’d recommend her to anyone.

Dr Anna is an exceptionally competent and empathetic psychiatrist. Her approach to patients is unique – she always listens attentively and with understanding, helping them to find the best solutions. Thanks to her support, I feel confident that my child is in the best possible hands. I highly recommend her.

A wonderful doctor. I am very pleased with the consultation. She is very professional, knowledgeable and, at the same time, empathetic. She took a comprehensive look at the problem I’d described. I was given precise instructions on how to proceed, what treatment would be used, and her thoughts on the cause of the problem. The doctor pointed out important details that another doctor had overlooked.

I highly recommend him! A brilliant specialist!

A very kind lady. Despite her young age, you can tell she really knows her stuff. She treated my 6-year-old son professionally and, during the consultation, asked all the right questions – even about things I didn’t have the faintest idea about. She was able to explain a lot of things to me that I didn’t know the answers to. I’ll definitely be booking another appointment with her.

She is very calm and dedicated. I have a 10-year-old son with ADHD. Since changing doctors, I’ve noticed a huge difference. She takes a completely different approach to my son’s problems. I highly recommend her!
