FORM HEALTH
ABOUT
Form Health opened in 2022 and began with a simple vision: to create a space where patients feel genuinely cared for--from the science behind the treatment to the smile at the front desk.
For founder Dr. Mecca Fayad, that dedication to service started early. Raised in Lac La Biche, Alberta, she spent her childhood in the back of her father’s Kentucky Fried Chicken, where she learned the importance of hard work, hospitality, and community. Those lessons inspired Form Health’s foundation: clinical excellence, exceptional service, and a beautiful, welcoming atmosphere.
Today, the clinic unites a multidisciplinary team of healthcare providers who share a common goal—to help people live better, healthier lives. Rooted in the heart of downtown Edmonton, Form Health continues to give back through local initiatives, events, and collaborations that keep community at its core.
