Dr. Elisse Schaaf was born in Colorado Springs, CO and raised in Kansas City, MO. She always wanted to be a veterinarian and always had a love for animals. She began gaining experience in veterinary medicine while in high school by working at Blue Springs Animal Hospital in the Pet Resort. She received a Bachelor’s degree in Biology from William Woods University in Fulton, MO. She then attended Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine on the Caribbean island of St. Kitts and completed her 4th year clinical rotations at Purdue University in West Lafayette, IN. Upon graduating from vet school, Dr. Schaaf worked in southern Florida for 2 years before returning home to Kansas City and to Blue Springs Animal Hospital.
Dr. Schaaf’s veterinary interests include dermatology and preventative medicine. In her free time, Dr. Schaaf enjoys reading, horseback riding, enjoying KC BBQ (Q39 and Joe’s KC are the best in her opinion), and spending time with her three dogs- two island mixed breed dogs, Jake and Lily, and a miniature schnauzer, Watson.
