Our orthodontist
I love Bringing Smiles to Life
Dr. Kate Schessler
DDS, MS
I was born and raised in Charleston, WV. Fun fact, I grew up on the same street as actress Jennifer Garner. Growing up, I loved playing sports and doing anything outside. I come from a huge family of rabid Steelers fans and am not shy about it, sorry Titans fans.
I earned a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry and Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry at West Virginia University — Go Mountaineers! During college, I tutored students in chemistry, became a certified service dog trainer, and dabbled in floral design.
After college, I stayed at WVU to get my DDS. During dental school, I developed a love for orthodontics after shadowing in the ortho clinic at the school and at private practices. My passion for it led me to the University of Louisville, where I completed my orthodontics residency.
Outside The Office
My fiancé, Connor, and I got engaged in February 2021 after dating for almost EIGHT years! We adopted our “quarantine” puppy, Musket, in October 2020.
In my free time, I love hiking around different parks with Connor and Musket, spending time with friends, crafting, and running. I’ve done 9 half marathons and counting!
