After graduation in the field of gynecology followed by the achievement of MD, he moved to the city of Kuressaare on the Saaremaa Island in 1876. That year he established a natural therapy clinic there and treated female patients from Petersburg, Tallin and Dorpat. The clinic was taken over by his son Gonzaga George Mierzejewski, a gynecologist himself. The clinic was destroyed during II World War in 1941. At present, the former location of the balneology clinic is commemorated with a stone with a plate for the memory of Polish doctors.
