Veterinary medicine, done right.Run by veterinarians, supported by Harmony.
We are building a Canadian network of independently run animal hospitals. Our model is built around veterinarian co-ownership, local clinical judgment and shared support for the work of running a practice.
Canadian owned
Harmony is built, owned, and led in Canada.
Independently owned
Harmony sets its own direction, guided by veterinarians and healthcare leaders on its board and in its hospitals.
Veterinarian led
Medical decisions stay with the veterinarians in each hospital.

Find the conversation that fits your next step.
For Practice Owners

For Our Team
Help build a team where your training is put to use and there is room to grow.
For Pet Owners
See the care and client experience we are working toward in each hospital.
You built it. Hand it on to people who will look after it.
We want to help owners plan a handover to the veterinarians and leaders who know their practice. The plan starts with your team, your patients and how you want to stay involved.
Your name stays on the door
The model preserves the practice's identity, with clinical decisions made by its veterinarians.
Shared management
Purchasing, payroll and HR are among the tasks we want hospitals to share across the network.
Leaders ready to take over
Associates and team leaders need time, training and support to take on ownership. We want to help them prepare.
Between standing alone and losing your practice's voice.
Running a practice can mean balancing patient care with payroll, hiring, purchasing and legal questions. Owners planning a transition also have to decide how local leadership and the practice's character will carry forward.
Harmony's model is built around co-ownership with the people who run the hospital, with shared resources and clinical decisions kept local.
How we think a hospital should run.
These principles guide the network we are building.
Local leadership
Veterinarians make clinical decisions. Hospital directors lead day-to-day operations.
Open books
Hospital leaders should understand the financials and have a voice in decisions about the hospital.
Its own name and character
The model is designed to preserve each hospital's name, team and place in its neighbourhood.
Lead a practice. Co-own it with us.
For veterinarians and team leaders, co-ownership is a chance to help shape the hospital you run. We are building a model with local clinical judgment, clear responsibilities and shared support. The investment and terms are worked out hospital by hospital.
Our first hospital is coming soon.
We are preparing our first hospital in the Greater Toronto Area. We will share its location and opening details when they are ready.
Led by people who have done this before.
Our leadership brings experience in veterinary practice, animal welfare, healthcare and pharmaceutical businesses.
