Dr. Staten Medsker
Born third of 14 children, Dr. Staten “RocknDoc” Medsker, Jr. grew up in poverty, surrounded by abuse, broken homes, and homelessness. With a mother married six times and a father married three, stability was a luxury he rarely knew. His father, who helped build the original Batmobile, was a man he wouldn’t meet until his late teens—a man suffering from chronic back pain, three failed spinal fusions, and prescription painkiller addiction. Witnessing that suffering ignited Staten’s lifelong passion to help others heal. From serving on hurricane cleanup missions and experiencing the 1989 San Francisco earthquake to losing neighbors in Tennessee tornadoes, he has spent much of his life responding to disasters and helping those in need—a calling he continues today through search and rescue. Torn between his dreams of becoming a rock star and a physician, he pursued pre-med studies before transitioning to chiropractic after his third year, eventually using his practice to finance his own music career. Determined to combine both passions, he began showing up backstage at concerts with his chiropractic table. For every hundred doors that closed, hundreds more opened, ultimately allowing him to care for over 700 professional musicians, athletes, and celebrities. Having overcome addiction himself, Dr. Medsker remains deeply committed to serving the recovery community. His extraordinary journey—from homelessness to healing rock stars—is driven by one unwavering belief: Our greatest purpose isn’t measured by fame or fortune, but by the lives we help change.
