Dr Rehan Merchant

After working in multiple rural and coastal communities in Australia and British Columbia, I’m excited to put down roots in the Leduc community! Growing up watching my father work in healthcare inspired me to pursue my own career in dentistry. I grew up on the east coast of Canada in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and began my academic journey at Dalhousie University. After retiring from an athletic career as a Canadian National wrestling team member, I set my sights on pursuing my dream of becoming a dentist, graduating from Griffith University in Australia with Honours. After graduating I returned to Canada, working on Vancouver Island and Edmonton, before eventually settling and finding my home at Orchard Family Dental. When not at the clinic, I try to take advantage of Alberta’s great outdoors by visiting the mountains to ski and hike. I can also be found keeping active through coaching and training in wrestling and martial arts. I am privileged to have the opportunity to build relationships with families generations deep at our practice. I enjoyed my time working with Dr. Paul Ng prior to his retirement and aim to continue his legacy of clinical excellence while providing an unmatched patient experience. Here at Orchard Family Dental, we strive to create a caring and comfortable environment for you and your family by combining thousands of hours of education alongside the latest in dental technology to allow us to serve you better. My treatment philosophy focuses on communication and achieving the best possible results for my patients in the long term. We focus on maintaining every smile for a lifetime. I look forward to meeting you and welcoming you to Orchard Family Dental!
