Dr. Anastasia Stocker completed her advanced professional training at Bastyr University in Seattle, WA, being awarded her Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine and Master of Science in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. Previous to Bastyr, she received a Bachelor of Science in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology at the University of California, Santa Cruz. This multidisciplinary academic career has forged her health philosophy: Dr. Stocker believes healing should be an integration of evidence based science and traditional natural medicine. Dr. Stocker’s clinical interests include digestive wellness, environmental medicine, women’s health, and physical medicine. She believes that our digestive system is the foundation of human health and that its optimization can improve all of the body’s systems and our overall well-being. She has observed that gastrointestinal dysfunction and environmental toxicity are the basis of autoimmune disease, leading to her emphasis on the topic. She is interested in autoimmune diseases and using her clinical experience in managing complex cases while utilizing integrative approaches. She is passionate about intersecting naturopathic medicine with acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, visceral, and craniosacral therapies to facilitate lasting improvements in patients with acute and chronic disease. Dr. Anastasia’s medical philosophy includes individualized patient centered care to help her patients achieve optimal health. In her free time she enjoys hiking and walking with her dog, Nala on the beach.
