Dr Lidia Popek is a doctor whose surname begins with the letter L. Visits to psychiatrists and psychotherapists are very difficult. Just as difficult as ‘delving’ into one’s own soul. Often at the cost of pain and tears. That is why it is very important which doctor a patient with mental health problems ends up seeing.
Dr Lidia Popek knows how to make the right diagnosis, because she knows how to read between the lines and sees what the average psychiatrist would miss. I’ve been examined by other psychiatrists, but it was only Dr Lidia Popek who diagnosed my condition. It hasn’t cured me, but I’m taking the right medication, I’m being properly ‘monitored’ and I’m getting on quite well in life. It takes a great deal of self-determination and inner discipline to live with any illness, especially one that affects the human soul. Whether the person is still a child or already an adult.
Dr Popek can be ‘tough’ and firm when the patient’s situation requires it. She has an excellent grasp of what the patient needs and when.
I do not feel qualified to judge Dr Lidia Popek’s work, but I can thank her for the hard work she has put into my treatment. I highly recommend Dr Lidia Popek, who will never leave anyone without help and support.

A welcoming place, with friendly staff right from the moment you walk in. Dr Popek is extremely professional and level-headed; she remembers her patients even several months after their visit, explains everything clearly, devotes a great deal of attention to her patients, and pays attention even to minor details that may be helpful in diagnosis and treatment. Thank you.

Dr Lidia is very thorough. She has a great deal of experience and picks up on many behavioural cues that help lead to an accurate diagnosis of the condition. She has helped my daughter and continues to do so. I highly recommend her.
