Anneli Ojala-Petrenko

Head of Nursing and Midwifery

Languages: Estonian, Russian, English


I am a midwife by education and hold a master’s degree in health sciences. For the past few years, I have worked as the Head of Nursing in the Department of Infectious Diseases at West Tallinn Central Hospital, which was one of the most challenging departments during the COVID crisis. Before that, I was the Head Nurse at Fertilitas and have also worked in dental clinics and as an assistant midwife. I enjoy spending my free time with my family, walking in the forest, gardening, and reading books. One of my hobbies is assembling my child’s sailing boat, and I also dream of sailing myself someday. I am the mother of a daughter and a son.
