Medical career
Stork graduated magna cum laude from Duke University with a degree in anthropology. He earned his M.D. from the University of Virginia.[1] He completed his emergency medicine residency at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee.[2] Before returning to Vanderbilt as a faculty physician, he worked as an attending physician at a private hospital in Colorado.

Stork has appeared as a guest on many shows, including The Talk, to discuss medical and health tips. He has also published a book, The Lean Belly Prescription.
The Bachelor
Stork appeared on Season 8 of The Bachelor. During the season finale of the show, Stork chose schoolteacher Sarah Stone, who coincidentally lived only a few blocks away from his Nashville residence. However, only one week after the show's pre-taped finale aired, the couple announced that their relationship was already over.[5]
Personal life
Stork married pediatrician Charlotte Brown on June 30, 2012.[6]
In 2009, he appeared as himself in the medical drama Three Rivers.
The Doctors
In 2007, Stork was cast as the lead host on The Doctors, a Los Angeles-based daytime medical/talk show, produced by Jay McGraw, son of Phil McGraw, which debuted in September 2008.[7] Stork heads a panel of three other physicians from different fields (pediatrics, plastic surgery and obstetrics) as they discuss health issues and answer audience questions.[8] The idea came about from a series of segments that were featured on Dr. Phil, to which Stork is also a frequent contributor.[9]
