Dr. Harriman has spent 2 years in North Carolina at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center, an accredited American Society of Transplant Surgeons (ASTS) Kidney and Pancreas Fellowship, working with pioneers and innovators in the field of transplantation; Dr. Robert Stratta, Dr. Jeffrey Rogers, Dr. Alan Farney, Dr. Giuseppe Orlando and Dr. Colleen Jay. The abdominal organ transplant program at Wake Forest is fully integrated, with transplant surgeons involved in research, immunosuppression, and rejection management in close collaboration with transplant nephrology. Prior to his subspecialty training, Dr. Harriman completed his MD degree (2012) and Urology residency (2017) at the University of British Columbia. Dr. Harriman joined the Vancouver General Hospital renal transplant group, consisting of transplant surgeons (Dr. Christopher Nguan and Dr. Mark Nigro), as well as transplant nephrologists (Dr. Olwyn Johnston, Dr. James Lan and Dr. Matthew Kadatz).
