Dr. Wessel grew up on a family owned farm, turned equestrian training center outside St. Louis, MO. While in undergraduate school , she managed the facility while training and teaching students, as well as, horses for the hunter/jumper show ring. Her free weekends were consumed with eventing up to preliminary level. This strengthened her interest in sport horses which led her to the University of Missouri College of Veterinary Medicine where she was awarded a scholarship for Equine Medicine Proficiency. Many externships led her to an internship at the University of Saskatchewan-Western College of Veterinary Medicine. There she spent time in an ambulatory practice working on large standardbred and thoroughbred breeding farms located in northern Canada.
Upon completing her internship, Dr. Wessel worked in a mixed practice located in Warren County, NJ doing equine work as the practice allowed. An all equine practice was her goal, so in 1998 she founded Cross River Veterinary Services. Her other professional interests include emergency medicine, wound management, ophthalmology and preventative medicine. Free time for Dr. Wessel is spent with family, riding (one of 2 horses and a mule) and practicing pilates (so she can ride!). (Source)
