Independent pharmacies often have unusual items for sale apart from medications. Prohealth is no exception. As one goes to pay chocolates beguile. Temptations galore. This time however there was Dubai Chocolate. Yes, that charmed chocolate is still being made and sold. This time it was a set of two bars attached to each other. Viral Set is red and is angel hair (not the pasta) of a milk chocolate bar with Turkish cotton candy and pistachio filling. The other bar is green with a crispy kaddalfi and pistachio filling. These two bars are a version of the authentic Dubai bar created in Dubai, UAE. Price? High. As I always have a budget, I rarely get a bar unless it's tiny and inexpensive. Now I have yet to see a small affordable Dubai style bar at ProHealth. However, the joy I get in making Dr. Alex and Miguel laugh about it is all I need! read more

Everything goes well at ProHealth Pharmacy! I adore the store, the staff and their quality inventory. Last, but most certainly not least, I love their delivery service for your pharmaceuticals. They will make an exception and send someone to you if you're in a hurry. read more

Excellent pharmacy where accurate Rx information is kept, and the patient comes first. Top notch medical professionals! read more

I love ProHealth Pharmacy; when I walk a Gramercy Park dog named Kula, I often stop in here. (It is known by many that pharmacists are just as knowledgeable about health and treatment of illness as many doctors!) They are incredibly well-stocked, and I get many of my supplements here now; I couldn't find L-tryptophan anywhere, so I looked and found it here. So happy to have them so close, with decent hours and friendly service! read more

I recently reached out to ProHealth Pharmacy at the direction of my medical provider, who has worked with other clients who have successfully filed the same prescription there in the past. I made the call politely , explaining that I was reaching out at the behest of my practitioner and then provided the name of my medication. The male who answered the phone mumbled something that I believe was a "no" and then abruptly hung up. I was left feeling dismissed and disrespected. It's quite something to realize that this pharmacy has enough clients to disregard potential new patients in need of assistance. As a store that markets itself as family owned and neighborhood friendly, I would caution anyone seeking compassionate care or respectful service. This business clearly lacks both. Avoid ProHealth Pharmacy at all costs unless you don't mind experiencing poor customer service when reaching out for something as important as your monthly maintenance. read more

Just called to inquire about a medicine. Guy on the phone chuckles, said "no can't help you" and hung up. Rude

Friendly, helped me find what I needed. Assisted with an out of town emergency Rx and made the process very easy.

A new pharmacy in an old neighborhood . I asked Anton questions and the pharmacists were all nice and patient. Not a lot of stock but seems like nice people. Like many smaller mom pop places not sure they accept my insurance they seemed to want ppl online to pay for their prescriptions. All not unusual today but clean, and nice people. Just has an empty feel maybe because it seems new. Bi never personally felt with them for prescriptions, yet. read more

They delivered my product on time and they always answer their phones which is a rarity these days

I can't imagine why anyone would give this family-owned business less than 5 stars. Alex and staff are knowledgeable, compassionate, and always go the extra mile for their loyal customers. Please patronize them. There aren't many family-owned pharmacies remaining! read more

I have been using this pharmacy for over a decade. I am always amazed at how friendly and professional they are. A completely different experience from a big chain drugstore. read more

I've been meaning to write a review for this Mom & Pop Pharmacy for years, but I can be very slow at times... I've been a customer at this Pharmacy for at least 5 or 6 years now because I just couldn't stand using Duane Reade or CVS anymore as they were always rude and nasty and took a very long time to fill my prescriptions... And, when I'd go in to pick up a filled prescription, I ALWAYS had to wait for someone to saunter over to hand it to me... It was as though they were doing me a favor... I am so grateful that I've tried Pro Health Pharmacy years ago... I could NOT be happier with my choice... ALL the Pharmacists at this store AND those who work the front desk are pleasant and helpful... Unlike Duane Reade or CVS, you get personal attention from people who are very knowledgeable; NOT rude, and, they will deliver your medications if you request that service... They also answer their phone and you can speak with a Pharmacist if you have a question or a concern... Plus - they fill your prescriptions very quickly... They are a fabulous find in this neighborhood... read more

I've only been here once and I'll not return. I came in to buy insulin syringes which I use for my medical condition and the guy at the counter I suppose assumed me to be a serious drug user (even though I was dressed like the office worker that I am -- but perhaps because I'm not white...) and was very rude to me and refused to sell them at first. Then I informed him of the Expanded Syringe Access law which he didn't seem to know about. Then he asked someone if they had the syringes finally and she threw them on the counter in front of me. Totally terrible discriminatory experience. read more

DON'T come here if you have medicaid. I was prescribed a covered medication and, after calling ProHealth to confirm they take medicaid, had my prescription sent over. When I went to pick it up, they charged me 15$ for it- I said it should only be 1$ (which is written on my health insurance card). They said it cost more than the insurance would cover. That night, I called my insurance company to get reimbursed, and the rep called the pharmacy to find out what happend. Turns out, the medication cost 10$, he billed it as 23$, and the insurance company said they would pay 5$ for it. So the pharmacy simply charged me as if, not only I didn't have insurance, but MORE than the medication costs in the first place. The pharmacy owner implied that he had explained this to me, when he hadn't. The insurance rep had such a difficult conversation with him that she ended up hanging up on him. What is the point of insurance if pharmacies don't respect it? I get that he's a small business owner - I came here in the first place in order to support a local busines. However, this blatant disregard for how insurance works is not ok. I wonder how many people he's done this to, and for how expensive of a medication. ProHealth made 5 dollars but lost a customer with their deceipt and absolute tackiness. read more

Just got my rapid covid test here, results are ready within 15 minutes, I am very happy about it. Staff is very knowledgeable and pleasant. will definitely recommend! read more

Horrible service. Rude employees and empty shelves. Worst pharmacy I ever been to. Do no recommend.

Over and beyond the call of duty. I was in a bind, getting an Rx refill while out of town. That's the short story. I spoke w several pharmas and my insurance, among others -- none of whom could help. Enter ProHealth. Michael was so patient and helpful and ended up saving the day. I felt like I was his auntie, he treated me with such care and compassion. Thank you, thank you! read more

I felt compelled to leave them a review because we had such a fantastic experience getting COVID tests here. Easy to schedule an appointment, the folks behind the desk and Alex who performed the COVID tests on my 4 year old son were just so kind and helpful. Can not recommend them highly enough! read more

Good place w some very cool things. I always have fun looking around and it's nice to shop at a place that isn't a chain.

Old style pharmacy. That is what we need when large corporate mind setpharmacy chain are taking over the pharmacy service across the nation You Will receive personal service from your pharmacist! read more

I've been going to this Pharmacy for 10 years. I can't recommend it enough. It not only has the feel of an old fashioned pharmacy, it is an old fashioned pharmacy. The pharmacists, Alex and co, are knowledgeable and helpful and everyone works hard to make sure you get what you need when you need it. You're not just a number here. You're a neighbor. ** Also, they carry the best brands in vitamins and any medical item you'll ever need. read more

I appreciate and love this pharmacy. The decor is beautiful and makes it look like an old authentic pharmacy from the 20s or something. Love it and the products sold read more

Very bad experience I use Adderall control substance they didn't have the medication until Monday and when I went to pick up the medication need Identification to be picked up. I called prior to picking it up and this was not communicated to me I will never return to this pharmacy very bad costumer service read more

Guy at the counter compared me not wanting to pay $80 for 12 pain pills to him not wanting to pay for a new BMW. The pain pills are for a stage 4 illness. When I asked for them to call my insurance to see why 12 pain pills for a major surgery cost $80 they said no. I said I wanted the pain meds bc of how major an operation it is - the insensitive (I'm being civil here) bro behind the counter said "I want a BMW but I have to pay for it, you know? It's the same thing." Unless you want to be epically shamed and treated like trash, avoid these garbage people at all costs. And no, wanting some flashy car (aka codpiece) for your ego isn't the same as pain meds for a stage 4 illness surgery. read more

Alex was extremely helpful and accommodating with my Covid testing. I had to return 3 times to get a Covid test 3 days in a row due to travel and flight issues and he helped me immensely. Quick turn around reliable testing. Over all amazing experience. Also has a great assortment of vitamins and health supplements! read more

This place was recommended by my doctor so I called to get my meds. The person on the phone was SO RUDE as soon as the conversation started. I tried to keep calm and continue but it was just too much to handle. I cannot understand how this guy can be employed. I will never ever buy something from a place who hires people like this. read more

The other Prohealth Pharmacy below Grand Central was my pharmacy for all my medication, but they just closed. The wonderful people there told me that they had another store on Second Ave. It was farther away, but all the pharmacists at the Lex Ave were so great that I thought these people would be great too. Wrong! I had my doctor send in two electronic prescriptions and I called and spoke to the pharmacist to see if he got it and when I could pick it up. He told me he could only fill one of the prescriptions. I thought he meant he had to order the other one, but he said that was not the issue. The problem was that he disagreed with how my doctor had written the prescription - I kid you not. I have never had a pharmacist decide to overrule a doctor, if they are not sure the prescription is written correctly, they call the doctor, but this man flat out refused to fill one of them. And he was nasty about it. I called my doctor and had them cancel it and send it to another pharmacy. It is even further away, but the pharmacist is very nice. If I wanted unpleasant, I would go to CVS!!! read more

I have used Pro Health's store on 2nd Ave since 2001. (another location on Lex south of 42nd). They always have what I need. The entire staff makes me feel at home and doesn't just treat you like another customer. They will mail medications for a price unless it is regular mail. The longest time I have waited is 20 minutes. If they don't have it in stock (a very rare occurance) they will have it in the following day. They have a vitamin specialist Jose, who is extremely knowledgeable. All of the pharmasists are wonderful. I don't live in the area but go out of my way because they go out of their's. In addition, they carry over the counter products and high quality hair brushes, fine candles, makeup, fine chocolates and Dr Hauschka products. The store on Lex had Lug purses/backpacks, and you want to spend extra $ because of their fine items. (Both stores). I just realized you can do refills online. Thanks to everyone! Liz D. read more

I LOVE this place. They have a huge selection of vitamins and holistic and natural products. The prices are great et cetera but.... What really makes this place so great is the staff. They are so knowledgeable and really helpful without being pushy or nosey. I had a minor skin irritation from a laser hair removal procedure and the employee at prohealth advised trying calendula oil. After trying everything else for a week, I woke up the next morning with smooth and healthy looking skin. This is one of about 5 circumstances where they really helped me out. I now get my Rx's filled here instead of the CVS on 3rd ave (the worst store known to man ugh). Prohealth is a great shopping experience! Everyone should come here! read more

Michelle was so great ! She was super nice and very gentle giving a covid test - overall great experience and will definitely come back next time I need a PCR test. read more

With urgent cares around the country overwhelmed with the holiday rush and labs not turning around results quickly I booked an appointment here the night before a flight. Was not sure that I would get my rapid PCR results in time but they made sure I got them within the 15 minutes as promised. Quick and easy service. Very efficient and communicative. Would highly recommend going here if you're in a bind or just for peace of mind. read more

After going to the usual chain drug stores and feeling like your in the DMV, it's an absolute pleasure going to Prohealth Pharmacy. They go out of their way to help and everyone couldn't be nicer or more Profesional. Highly recommended. read more

Everyone is so friendly and professional. I had my Covid test done here and I needed my results quick for traveling and they made sure I got it in no time. read more

This place gives you a warm personalized experience. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff

I prefer to use independent pharmacies instead of chain drug stores, and after I had less-than-satisfactory experiences at Halperin Pharmacy on 23rd Street, I took my business here. Good move! I have found these guys to be friendly, helpful, and professional. They also have an amazing selection of alternate medicines on hand (herbals and the like) at very reasonable prices. Long live ProHealth! read more

Forget about CVS and the other large chains. This place will speed your order while you do a quick shopping in their fantastic health and supplement store. A pharmacy with class !! read more

What an interesting little pharmacy! This is the place to find foreign, exotic and herbal remedies that you can't find in those chain pharmacies such as cvs or Duane reade. The staff are extremely helpful and dropped what they were doing to look for a certain product I needed. Unfortunately, they didn't have it, but they pointed me in the right direction: amazon! Lol! read more

I recently switched to this location because the location nearest to my house on Lexington closed. Filling my prescription here is like pulling teeth. I've waited almost 2 months for one prescription. This would have never happened at the Lexington pharmacy. The pharmacist legit asked me to call the doctor back because he said they were hard to reach. When I called, the doctor asked why didn't the pharmacy call. Smh. I had to walk in ask what was going on with my prescription to get an update that's when the pharmacist was like ohh I'll call them. (I'm still waiting) My daughter's prescription was also filled and not a soul reached to tell me it was ready. I used to get calls, updates right away and/or even provided with different options if my copay was too high. I don't even get an explanation when I pick up our meds anymore. The Lexington pharmacy always provided detailed instructions extremely warm staff. Unfortunately it's time to look for a new pharmacy this place feels like the factory known as CVS. What a shame. I can no longer count on them like I did at the Lexington pharmacy concerning my health and daughter's. read more

I recently had a prescription filled here. The people behind the pharmacy counter were abrupt and unfriendly (and I am a pharmacist myself, so I think I can be the judge!). However, they do carry the most extensive supply of vitamins I have ever seen. If that is what you are looking for, this is probably the best place to search. read more

Terrible customer service. Asked whether they had a prescription by phone, and they said they had to see it in person. I said I could provide the prescription verification number, I just didn't want to travel in snow just to find out they were out of stock. Conversation ended with man hanging up on me. I believe the rest of these reviews are fake from the store's owners. read more
