Thompson, Joel W PA

Dr. Nkyesiga, located in Charlotte, NC, specializes in Urgent Care at Carolinas HealthCare System.

As a child, I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, which my father also has. It was a lot to take in and manage, and the experience inspired me to go into medicine. I specifically was - and am - interested in endocrine disorders. \n I aim for balance in my own life and encourage my patients to seek a healthy balance, too. I encourage patients to be aware of what they eat, to make healthy choices and to make exercise a part of their daily lives. At the same time, I know we're all human and that we occasionally eat something we know isn't good for us or fall off our exercise routine. And that's OK so long as, on most days, we aim for the best possible health. \n I'm a transplant from the West Coast. I was born in California, raised in Colorado and came to North Carolina for physician assistant school. I'm happy that my new home gives me access to the beach and mountains. Growing up where I did, I love both - but consider myself mostly a beach person. (Although in the fall, there's no place I'd rather be than hiking in the mountains.) I love travel - both domestic and international - and Spain and Maui are my favorite destinations so far.
