Meet Your Doctors
Dr. Jacob Stockton
(Dr. Jake)
Dr. Jacob Stockton, aka “Dr. Jake,” grew up in southwest Washington and graduated from Ridgefield High School before receiving his Bachelor’s of Science in Biology from Washington State University in 2012.
As a former athlete, Dr. Jake became increasingly interested in exercise, biomechanics, and improving athletic performance as well as preventing/recovering from injuries. He would go on to attend the University of Western States where he would later graduate with his Doctorate of Chiropractic in 2016. After his first couple years of practice, Dr. Jake has found a passion for treating athletes of all levels, weekend warriors, patients suffering from sports or automotive-related injuries, as well as those looking to optimize their overall health and wellbeing by maintaining proper spinal alignment. Dr. Jake married his wife, Alli, in the Dominican Republic in 2018. They welcomed their first child, Henry, into the world in April 2021 and second son, Weston, in April of 2024.
When he is not in the office, you can find him out on the water, up on the mountain, or at home rooting for the Tennessee Titans, Portland Trailblazers, and of course, the Washington State Cougars. Go Cougs!
Dr. Alek Rybar
Dr. Alek Rybar grew up right down the road in Longview and graduated from Mark Morris High School, so being able to serve the Kalama community feels like coming home.
After high school, he attended Washington State University (Go Cougs!) before earning his Doctorate of Chiropractic from the University of Western States. His care philosophy is simple: help people get out of pain, move well, and get back to doing what they enjoy.
He focuses on rebuilding the core movement skills most people never realize they’re missing, like how you breathe, how you stabilize your body, and how you move through everyday activities. When those fundamentals are working the way they should, pain decreases, movement feels easier, and the body becomes more resilient over time.
Dr. Alek works with a wide range of patients, from those dealing with everyday aches and pains to more complex injuries and chronic conditions. He prioritizes identifying the root cause of the issue and creating a plan that not only provides relief, but helps keep problems from returning.
Having personally dealt with chronic low back pain for years, Dr. Alek understands how limiting it can be. That experience fuels his passion for helping others feel stronger, move better, and stay active long-term.
Outside the clinic, he enjoys getting outdoors, whether it’s snowboarding in the winter, golfing year-round, working out, or spending time in the woods. Most of all, he values time with his fiancée, Taylor, and their black lab, Nova, who keeps them busy and always ready for the next adventure.
