Meet the dedicated and compassionate team at Harmony Road Animal Hospital
Dr. Pathman graduated in 2006 from the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science at the University of Peradeniya. Immediately following graduation he worked as a Veterinarian in a disaster relief project conducted by World Animal Protection and Blue Paw Trust. After one year, he took part in a humane pet population and rabies control project. During that time he was the field coordinator for that model project for Asia.
In 2009 Dr. Pathman and his wife Dr. Tharshani chose to move their family to Canada to pursue their careers in Veterinary Medicine and to make it their permanent residence.
After migration to Canada Dr. Pathman decided to learn the ways of Canadian Veterinary Medicine so he started to work as a Veterinary Assistant at Westway Animal Clinic in Etobicoke. Later, he worked as a Veterinary Technician at the same clinic until 2012. While working there he completed the exams conducted by CVMA and AVMA and fulfilled the requirements to work as a practicing Veterinarian in North America.
In 2012 (because of the passion towards animal welfare), Dr. Pathman decided to join the Ontario SPCA and worked with them for one year. After gaining great experience and surgical skills through working with the OSPCA, he decided to join the DMS Veterinary Group as an Associate and worked in Dresden, ON for four years. During his time in Dresden his passion and love for pets, clients and staff grew.
In June of 2017, Dr. Pathman, his wife and sons chose to permanently settle in Oshawa and make this beautiful community their home and fulfill their dreams of being practice owners as they opened Harmony Road Animal Hospital.
Dr. Pathman’s aim is to provide high quality, affordable Veterinary Medicine to his community. His compassion for pets and their owners goes above and beyond. Pets can be comforted by his calm and caring demeanor. You can be sure that your pets are in the best care when they are treated at Harmony Road Animal Hospital. He looks forward to meeting and providing essential and exceptional services to the pets and pet parents of Oshawa and surrounding areas.
