Luana Torres, DVM
Dr. Luana Torres and her family live in Marysville. She is a veterinarian during the day and a Cub Scout leader in the evenings and on weekends. Originally from Brazil, she is happily married, has two red-headed sons and two dogs (a Chihuahua and a terrier mix). In her free time she enjoys camping with the Scouts and her family, hiking, traveling, quilting, and all things Disney and Harry Potter.
She graduated from veterinary school in 2009, followed by a small animal internship, and in 2011 she was accepted into Michigan State University's College of Veterinary Medicine as an Oncology Fellow. She then attended Mississippi State University (2013–2014), where she focused on cancer research, before returning to clinical practice in Michigan in 2014, where she chose to live and raise a family.
She is passionate about learning, improving her technical skills, and creating a Fear Free environment for her patients. Her favorite subjects are surgery, dentistry and treating allergies, as well as keeping pets healthy and comfortable from puppyhood through the senior years.
She speaks English and Portuguese fluently and knows basic Spanish. Clients travel far to consult with her, and word-of-mouth recommendations are the best compliments she can get. She is also USDA-certified and can issue international health certificates for pet travel.
