Our Story

Optimum pharmacy, allied with Whole Health Pharmacy Partner, is an independent pharmacy located in the main and developing corridor on Davis Drive, Newmarket.

Fora Rahmati

Director, Manager / RPh, PharmD.

I believe what differentiates a good health care practitioner from a great one is the element of passion. I care deeply for my patient’s well-being and I am constantly trying to inspire my team to follow the same values and mission.


I’ve been a pharmacist since 2000 (Although I don’t look that old!!) and I have worked in different pharmacy settings. I immigrated to Canada from Iran in 2008 and started to work as a pharmacist again in 2010.

Managing a corporate pharmacy for 8 years gave me valuable experience and made me recognize the flaws in our patient care. In 2019, I decided to open my own pharmacy hoping that I can cultivate the vision of providing optimal drug therapy outcomes for our community through collaboration with other health care providers.


I work in a great community and seeing and helping my patients is my biggest drive to come to work every day. I LOVE helping my patients!

Our Awesome Team

Vanessa Mercieca

Pharmacy Assistant

Throughout my exploration of different industries, all of my time spent in the workforce has always centred around customer service. With the majority of my experience coming from hospitality management, and an educational background in humanitarian studies, a job involving both customer service and patient care is a perfect blend for me. I prioritize the values of great customer service, and I love being able to serve the community and help people every day!

How We Help You

Medication management is a home visit by our pharmacist to review your medications, to remove all the expired or outdated medications and to introduce blister packs if needed.

We are a specialty pharmacy focusing on fertility treatment medications. Our expertise, individualized care and collaboration with your doctor can have a huge impact on positive outcomes of your treatment cycle. 

Testimonials

I switched to Optimum Pharmacy several years ago, and I am so glad that I did. The pharmacist, Fora, has proven to be caring, friendly, and knowledgeable about my specific health issues. She is always willing to deal directly with my GP when she-or I- feel that clarification about a prescription is required. She takes a holistic approach to patient-care, and genuinely believes in "customer service" and all that is implied by the expression.

From the very beginning, I knew Fora was more than just our pharmacist. She is interested in our health as well as our health care. She is never too busy to answer our questions, to give advice, to make suggestions or to consult on our behalf with our doctors. Her support throughout the pandemic was reassuring, and, more importantly, was always available. Thank you, Fora, for your professional care and friendship.

I've been so impressed with the service I receive at Optimum. My provider will call in my prescription and they are quick to fill it while also applying my benefits. Fora's kind and empathetic nature makes my day whenever I pick up a prescription. Her knowledge of the medication makes me at ease about any anxiety I had to take it. Thank you Fora for being my cheerleader!!
