Joaquin Carral, MD

"Joaquin Carral MD was born in Mexico City. After finishing Medical School he participated for 3 years with Chilean nuns to bring healthcare to an underserved population in the remote regions of Mexico where there are no doctors or primary care physicians. Eleven years ago he decided to come to the United States to continue his studies of Internal Medicine. He was chief resident in his program at St. Luke’s Roosevelt Hospital, from Columbia University. With prevention care in mind he studied one year fellowship program Preventive Cardiology in NYU, where he was able to study deeply the interaction of lifestyle and healthcare outcomes. After this he was part of a Federal Qualified Clinic for 5 years in Willimantic, CT, offering services to underserved Americans, farm workers, immigrants and more.

Through the practice of yoga, Dr. Carral was able to develop a practice of mindfulness. He loves to be in nature: hiking, biking, kayaking or swimming. He truly believes that with lifestyle changes like eating healthier, sleeping well, exercise and deep relationships, patients can increase their wellbeing, control and in most of the cases reverse chronic health conditions.

He joined the Nomads clinic in 2019 a medical expedition to the Himalayas and Tibetan plateau with clinicians and others bringing medical support into very remote, high altitude regions. You can find Dr. Carral listening deeply to his patients, cooking with patients healthy meals in a class or growing food in his garden.

He is ready to start the journey with patients in the Monadnock region."
