Our doctor advises Dziennik.pl readers [INTERVIEW]

Which home treatments actually work and which pose a health risk? Dr. n. med. Joanna Ptaszyńska, a pediatric specialist in the NZOZ "Twój Lekarz" network of clinics, dispels the doubts of Dziennik.pl readers.

In turn, Dr. Barbara Blitek, an ophthalmology specialist at NZOZ “Twój Lekarz”, advised readers of “Samego Zdrowia”. You can read more about this topic here and here.
