Dr. Samantha Lucchesi

Dr. Samantha “Sam” Lucchesi is a compassionate and dedicated veterinarian who joined the Park Grove team in 2026. She graduated from the University of Minnesota with both her BS in 2013 and then her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine in 2018. She started out her career as an equine veterinarian, but quickly realized small animal general practice and exotic medicine were her true calling. She has been a small animal/exotic medicine doctor at a general practice since 2019 and is excited to bring her skills and positive energy to our clinic. She is particularly passionate about geriatric patient care, surgery, exotic animal medicine, preventative care, and all things CATS! She enjoys building long lasting connections with her clients and patients, and helping her patients live long happy lives through quality care.

Outside of work she enjoys horseback riding, traveling, spending time outdoors, reading, crafting, and spending time with her friends and family. She also loves spending time at home with her significant other, her two feline fur babies (Gouda and Gemma), two snakes (Groot and Moscato), and her fish!
