Greentree Pharmacy

I like the mom and pop feel but their hours are limited (we went tonight at 8:25 and they had closed 5 min early). Make sure you really want what you buy because their return policy is terrible 3 days with a receipt for a refund and 7 days with a receipt for an exchange. 3 days?! Ridiculous!

My wife came in here on Friday needing to fill a prescription for me for what had turned out to be a difficult-​to-​find drug. None of the other pharmacies in the neighborhood had it, or were even willing to order it until Monday of the following week. Which meant I wouldn’t be able to start on this medication for at least another 5 days. The pharmacists at CVS and Rite Aid were less than helpful. Greentree went above and beyond to procure the medication. It’s a strong case for going to a neighborhood pharmacy versus the big name corporate pharmacies in the area. Thank you Greentree!

Love coming to this pharmacy, besides the fact that they have amazing products pharmacy always smells good, staff is kind and friendly. Both pharmacist are great and kind, the front guy really knows about his stuff, anything you need to know about vitamins he knows and really funny as well… Will be coming to this pharmacy more often for my prescriptions…

So I still like this pharmacy– what I do not like is NY state law. And the fact that this place is not a chain! I recently moved out of this area and instead of being able to transfer my prescriptions entirely I have to have my new pharmacy call to retrieve it every month. If I had just filled at a big chain I wouldn’t have this issue to begin with. I know that’s going to create problems of me not knowing how many refills I actually have… Such a pain in the butt. Not their fault (as its NY law) but if I went to a chain I’d be free from this problem.

Great neighborhood pharmacy with compassionate expertise. I had a tough time with post partum recovery and the pharmacist and other techs had lots of great recommendations, organic and homeopathic. They have ordered things for me when I request them to save us a trip to a big box store. I’m always greeted when I go in even if it’s been months! They remember their patients and we pick up our conversation like no time has passed between us.
This is the type of friendly neighborhood pharmacy we all need and I have problem supporting local businesses.

I hadn’t been in there for a while. Gave Pavlov (Sp.) my prescription, he remembered me, and passed it to the pharmacist. The pharmacist remembered my name and came out from the back to come speak to me, to see how my pregnancy was advancing, and how much I had to go, the amazing thing I thought was that just by looking at my name he remembered me. His wife always remembers me, always talks to me, encourages me during the pregnancy but I barely see him and he still remembered. The pharmacy was packed and he treated everyone every customer as if they were his only one.
I LOVE going to this pharmacy because they get it right ALL the time. My former pharmacy in clinton hill has often screwed things up. I switched over a year ago and have been happy ever since.
I never felt that I was charged more as with the consumable type of med that I have its the same price each time.
I will be their customer forever.

Pro: They offer prescriptions filled in less than 15 minutes.
Con: You’ll pay top dollar for it. I paid 50% more here than at Rite-​Aid.

If you ever went to health aid (Pharmacy previously in same location that closed down) then you were probably disappointed when they closed. This place is run by different owners but is equally great. I usually have to go from one pharmacy to another to find what I need but with the opening of greentree, that has no longer been an issue. They not only have had my prescriptions stocked, but they’re much quicker than big box pharmacies and much more courteous. I can’t even begin to describe the hassles that CVS and Duane have made me deal with, whether it involves demanding direct consultation with my doctor, writing all over my prescription like its the pharmacist’s personal doodle pad cough*CVS*cough, or just plain passing along misinformation, I avoided all of that with greentree! If those problems sound familiar, I highly recommend you give them a shot. Only issue I had is that Unilocal store times are for the store not the pharmacy, so you have to call and make sure they’re open and that they’re not closing early… can’t even deduct one star for that since it’s small potatoes compared to the usual mess of laws and policy that make filling prescriptions inconvenient or downright impossible.

So friendly, clean and organized. I am very grateful this place opened so I can completely avoid the 7^th Ave Rite Aid.
