Board-Certified Veterinary Surgeon (DACVS)

Dr. Hani M. Korani is a board-certified small animal surgeon (Diplomate, American College of Veterinary Surgeons - Small Animal) who provides advanced surgical care with a collaborative and compassionate approach. 

Through his mobile practice, H&M VetSurg, Dr. Korani brings specialty-level surgical expertise directly to your trusted family veterinary practice, making advanced care more accessible while maintaining seamless communication with your primary care team.

Education and Surgical Training

Dr. Korani’s path to becoming a surgical specialist was driven by a passion for the intricate mechanics of the body and the profound impact that skilled surgery can have on an animal’s quality of life.

He earned his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) degree from the School of Veterinary Medicine at Cairo University, Egypt. Following graduation, he completed a demanding one-year rotating internship in medicine and surgery at Tuskegee University Veterinary Teaching Hospital, where he gained broad experience in all facets of veterinary care.

With a clear focus on surgery, Dr. Korani was then selected for a rigorous three-year surgical residency at the North Carolina State University Teaching Hospital. This intensive program provided him with advanced training in orthopedic, soft tissue, neurologic, and oncologic surgery under the mentorship of world-renowned specialists.

Upon completion of his residency, Dr. Korani successfully passed the rigorous examination to become a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Surgeons. This board certification represents the highest level of specialization in the field, a distinction held by only a small percentage of veterinarians. After working in large specialty hospitals, he founded H&M VetSurg to bring that same level of care to a more personal, collaborative setting.
