Ismael Tamba
11635 Northpark Dr, 
Wake Forest, NC 

Overview

I grew up in a military family. The values of strong work ethic, perseverance, and self-determination were inculcated at an early age. I am the first person in my family to enter the medical field. I enjoy the aspect of family medicine that allows me to see children, adolescents, adults, and the elderly, but also forge long-lasting relationships with patients. I have a particular interest in preventive care and musculoskeletal conditions. Outside my medical practice, I enjoy spending time with my wife and two young children. I also enjoy outdoor activities and martial arts.

His top areas of expertise are Familial Combined Hyperlipidemia, Xanthoma, Glucocorticoid-Remediable Aldosteronism, and Familial Hypertension.
