She completed her training and residency in Michigan, becoming board certified in family medicine with advanced certification in age management medicine.

Stocker practices with Dr. Mike Carragher at The Body Well USA-Age Management.

In addition to age management and hormonal optimization, Stocker is also an expert in medical aesthetics, including medical weight.

Fit 4 The Cause organizes monthly events. Upcoming events include the Summer Splash Relay Fun at The Miller Family YMCA in Newbury Park on Aug. 20, and a Boot Camp Pushup Campaign this summer to raise funds for veterans’ assistance.
