Experienced Rasen vet opens his own business on town market place

A Market Rasen man is  taking on a new challenge next month when he opens his town centre veterinary  practice.

Dr Liviu Luca moved to the town last year with an  ambition to open up his own business.

His dreams will become a reality on April 1 with the grand opening of LucaVet, located at 27 Market Place.

Dr Luca says he is excited to welcome pets and their owners through the doors after spending several years as lead vet and a mentor at two practices.

He said: “I have been a lead vet for the past three or four years.

“I have also trained  between 10 and 20 vets in  recent years.

“I have decided now is the time to have a different  approach in the community of Market Rasen and I want to open my own place.”

Dr Luca says he is looking forward to working for himself alongside his head veterinary nurse Leigh Quinn and  receptionist Lindsay Elizabeth  Carratt.

He said: “I will be the lead vet and owner of  LucaVet.

“We are just at the beginning so we have a small team.

“Leigh and I worked together for a few years and when she heard I was  opening my own place she wanted to come and join me.

“We call ourselves Batman and Robin.
