Dr Asoka Kukulege
D
Dr Asoka graduated as a DVM and completed a Masters in dairy science and technology from the University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka, at one of the most beautiful campuses in the world. Many years as a young veterinarian, she channeled most of her energy to mediate programs to improve not only animal health, but also living conditions of farmers in many rural areas.
She and her family then moved to Canada, and, upon a brief tenure in the research field and completion of the Veterinary Skills Training and Enhancement Program at the University of Guelph, she completed her North American DVM licensure at the University of Prince Edward Island.
Since then, Dr Asoka has enjoyed working as a small animal practitioner for over five years in one of the busiest clinics in Medicine Hat, Alberta, and gained lots of experience in small animal internal medicine, surgery and dentistry. In 2017, she made Ottawa her home with her family and continued her career as an emergency veterinarian before joining our clinic in 2019.
While at home, she loves to tell all about her daily encounters with all kinds of pets at the clinic to her puppy Binoo, the Samoyed!
