I wanted to share a little about the experience I had. The service I received was excellent, and Lucas, who helped me, was incredibly attentive, knowledgeable, and thorough in explaining the products. Products are easy to find anywhere, but it is not always easy to know what to choose or what is best for each person. Everyone has a different body type and different goals, so it makes a big difference when you are helped by someone who truly understands the products, pricing, and promotions. Lucas took the time to explain the differences between the products and helped me understand that what I originally thought was right for me was not necessarily the best option. Having that kind of honest and informed guidance is extremely valuable. Overall, I had a very positive experience and truly appreciated the excellent customer service. read more

Ryan knows his product, extremely helpful! Always get great help and advice from him here, will only come to this GNC from now on . read more

Ryan is seriously THE BEST!!! So knowledgeable, so helpful!!! We won't even go to any other GNC location since meeting him. Highly highly recommend!!!! Thank you Ryan! read more

I have shopped at this GNC a few times now, and it's some of the best customer service I've received in any shopping experience in quite some time. Both Lucas and Victor have been patient, knowledgeable, and kind making suggestions based on my very specific wants. The supplement recommendations have been spot on as well. Thank you both! See you in a few weeks! read more

We stopped in here before dinner to look at some preworkout and recovery. The employee (who I wish we would have wrote his name down) was super helpful! He told us the brands he liked that tasted the best. We are familiar with what we liked but wanted something different. Man are we glad we tried it! They are delicious!!! I just added some photos of some of the products that I saw. read more

Great store and great staff! Guilherme was really helpful and I totally recommend it!

I have been coming to this GNC for a few years and I must say, the manager Lucas is refreshingly knowledgeable and helpful. Each time I visit he offered product insight, alternatives if needed, and samples when available. Definitely recommend this location. read more

This GNC is right in the middle of Hillcrest, always has a knowledgeable person working the counter. I've gone from a bunch of different recommendations from the dudes working here. Whether its preworkout or protein, if ended up liking and sticking with their opinions. Parking is pretty bad during the day. I strongly recommend parking across the street at the bank of america/wholefoods parking lot(they share spaces). The prices are average gnc prices, if you're not a gold member for whatever reason then you definitely should be. Earning points for cash back is super simple if you're regularly purchasing supplements in the first place. The return policy is dope, basically if you hate the taste of something you can bring it back I think within the first 30 days... even if you've used it every day. Makes for a confident buy for sure. Check out the cookie place next door fyi... best cookies in San Diego. Happy lifting @sirjake2.0 read more

They always have a sale Sarah, which I appreciate, Able to get products here that I can't buy elsewhere like lotions and creams. Staff is always helpful in helping me locate something that another GNC store might have like Fashion or Mission Valley. Shipping has always been free for me. I don't have any kind of membership. So that's really nice. Always helpful. Thank you GNC guys. read more

It's been a while since I started going to this store to get all my supplements, vitamins and the healthiest (and delicious) snacks. I absolutely love every product I buy and the results I have. Not to mention that they provide the In-body test for free which is crucial when starting a new diet plan. Lucas Mack is the one who has helped me the most through my fitness journey. He's a very knowledgeable guy and definitely knows what's the best for my body and my lifestyle. Overall, I'm really satisfied with everything and highly recommend going there if you want to successively achieve your fitness goals. read more

Today I went there to get my regular whey protein, I haven't been there in months because the first time I went I didn't like the costumer service. But today I met the manager Lucas and he changed my perspective of the store. The store was really clean and organized, he was super helpful answering all my questions helped me testing my body fat for the first time and I ended up buying a protein supply for a couple months with a cool promotion. He even invited to come back to Follow up with my results ! Thank you Lucas and GNC! read more

GNC - Health Markets Near Me - San Diego, California

Best GNC in SoCal. For years they have been doing the buy one get one half off on pretty much everything in the store even the ripped packs. No promo they do it everyday. I live in LA and I couldn't find any GNC that does that, so I told myself when I go back to San Diego I'm going to stop by my old store. So glad I did. Saved myself over a $100. read more

João was so helpful. Super nice and friendly as soon as you walked in and helped me tremendously with finding the products I needed. Gave great advice, and was extremely knowledgeable of the products and how they work together. This store had a plethora of products and everything I needed in one go. I'm new to San Diego/the west coast in general, but that was a major plus. I was fully prepared to have to go to multiple stores like I used to on the east coast. Great location! read more

Incredible service, Josh was amazing. Needed help with what I was looking for and he was able to narrow it down in a way that was understandable while also helping others in the store. read more

This location is poorly managed. It's unfortunate because the store associates look like they are active fit people which is good but they lack understanding they are at work, not the gym. Management must have hired people who look the part but can't do the job. I won't be coming here again. They give no F's. I wish I could make this 1/2 star. read more

I walked into GNC yesterday for the first time in years. This GNC helped me pick out some after workout supplements years ago when I was training for a half marathon and my workouts were so intense I needed some help with recovery. Now, 4 years later I returned wanting the exact same product but quickly realized I had NO idea what I had been using so many years ago. After 10 min in the store, wandering around, feeling like I was being followed by the guy in the store, I decided to do my own research on amazon. I know the guy was trying to be helpful but I only wanted one thing, I didn't know what it was, and I walked away feeling stupid and frustrated. The guy tried to sell me other products, he spoke really fast and it felt really aggressive and pushy. It just made me stop listening. I totally own the fact that I walked in unsure of almost everything, but I think his salesman mentality made him think that he could tell me what I wanted... which does not work with me. Later in the afternoon I ended up going to a different GNC where they were a bit softer and less pushy (and by that time I knew what I had bought in the past). This store is just too much for me, I am not a crazy weight lifter but I do workout 6-7 times a week and need some extra support, but I don't need the entire store, which is what it felt like he was pushing. Rather than listening and giving me space, he pretty much pushed me out the door and this time I will just go to the GNC in Carmel Mountain. read more

GNC - Whatever they tried to sell me - Health Markets Near Me - San Diego, California

Parking sucks but overall this location has good customer service. Alex is the best. Super helpful. He doesn't try to sell you products or push you to buy something . He actually listens to your goals and dietary needs and then gives you a recommendation. I'm lactose intolerant and Alex recommended vegan cheeses and where I could find them. He's very knowledgeable and nice. GNC needs to make him manager. read more

We come here to buy our energy drinks and always find what we are looking for. The staff is helpful and friendly so that's a plus.

George and lucas are the best! I come in there because George referred me to this store and mission valley. Lucas helped me entirely and was extremely friendly. Also offered me a great deal on some L-C and BCAAs. Will return!! read more

This particular GNC location is our favorite and will always shop here, all because of LUCAS the manager. He is by far the most knowledgeable and courteous store manager we've ever met. The store looked clean, organized and have a positive atmosphere. Thank you Lucas and we will see you soon! read more

Lucas is always super helpful and knowledgeable. I come here on a weekly basis and he suggests new products and is always in a great mood.

I have previously criticized this store in the past. There has since been a change in staff and it has by far changed my experience shopping here. The manager and staff are all very knowledgable and familiar with the products they carry, thus able to answer any questions I have and when trying new products, you want to to talk to someone who knows about them. I've been to other GNC stores around the city and this is my favorite. read more

I'm not a GNC expert.. But this place served its purpose. I came on a weekday and easily found parking in the shopping center lot. I was greeted upon entering, but not stalked around the store by an associate, which is far too common at stores like this. I was able to find the supplement I was looking for and had a smooth checkout. I was even given a free Quest bar as part of some promotion they're doing. So anyways 5 stars for -- having a parking lot in Hillcrest, no annoying or pressuring sales associates, and an easy checkout. read more

I've been to this location many times an no one has ever been more helpful than Kevin. He's always willing to suggest the best product without coming off pushy and really tries to find the supplements that really fit your goals. read more

I went to buy some protein and the cashier offered me a free multivitamin upon purchase. I thought it was weird and it immediately struck me as there was something in it for him. It just didn't seem genuine or customer service related at all. The next day I looked through my gnc emails and of course there was a $15 off coupon. Instead of offering my $15 coupon off my $100 purchase, he forced me to purchase a product (gnc multivitamin) that was $15 and acted like he was giving it to me for free. I don't appreciate the dishonesty and won't ever purchase from this GNC again despite it being just a block away from my house. I feel taken advantage of. You obviously see the available coupon. Either offer it with an HONEST recommendation or just don't even offer the damn coupon at all. He could've simply said, "I see you have a $15 coupon available so you can grab a multivitamin for free", gave a few reasons why this multivitamin is nice and I likely would've purchased it anyway. To the owner - train your employees to provide good customer service through honesty and I'm sure you won't have to stoop low for sales. read more

Lucas was extremely helpful and knowledgeable in regards to me looking for my RAW Beta-Alanine supplement. On a good and helpful note, I didn't have my coupon with me;however, Lucas helped me connect on line, so my coupon discount was successfully applied. Sincerely, Jeff "Rattlesnake" Railey 5X Champion Masters Amateur Boxer read more

I was looking for something that could help me gain muscle mass quickly but unsure about what the best route to take would be. When I visited the store, Lucas was extremely helpful and directed me towards the right products. Appreciate it a lot and would recommend for anyone unsure of what to purchase! read more

I can honestly say I've never been so satisfied leaving a GNC. Kevin was so helpful with his recommendations on products and I was thoroughly impressed with his ability to break down each product by the ingredients. This is my new go to GNC thank you for such a great experience. read more

If you run out of supplements and absolutely have to have them then I guess its not a bad place to go. Other then that I have to be honest a say the prices are very very high. They do occasionally run some sales that knock down items by %50 but that is only if you buy another item at full price. I had to wait outside one time for like 15 minutes because the guy inside was going to the bathroom or something and couldn't leave the front unattended. Like I said, if you absolutely have to have your supplements that day go for it. But if you can wait and buy them on line you will save a bundle. read more

Came in with some questions about protein and vitamins. The guys there were great. Super helpful and polite. Understood me and helped me make a decision. Definitely returning to this location. read more

Parking can be irritating sometimes due to the small lot but many stores, guys working inside know their stuff and always offer help when I walk in. Never crowded usually in and out within 5 minutes unless I'm doing some searching for something new, thanks guys! read more

I went in the other day to specifically buy some Lenny and larrys cookies, and the guy behind the counter asked very nicely if I needed any help. L I replied no, I found what I wanted. When I brought my purchase up,he asked if "I had ever tried powder instead of this processed stuff". While I know his question was meant in the best I treat, I found the way he asked really off putting. I guess what they say is true- it's not what you say. It how you say it. I also only gave 2 stars because they were out of stock in a lot of the options for what I wanted. Instead of 5, they had 2. Probably won't go here again but a different Location because of this. Bummer. read more

Daniel was very helpful with finding the right purchase for me. Great customer service all around.

There was a problem with my auto delivery for the bucked up that was supposed to be canceled (which I called CS) 4 months ago but a day ago had a shipment sitting at my doorstep when I came home from work. So I went to return the product to this GNC which I next to my work and my dude Lucas (Store manager) help me fix it all by calling CS himself. In the end everything was straightened out. I go to this location often on my breaks for them Raze and woke, and I highly recommend this location cause every time I go it's always occupied by friendly staff and it's always well organized read more

Very friendly people. Lucas helped me out and is very knowledgable. Highly recommend getting your supplements here!

I've trusted GNC since I began working out to recommend the best supplements, based on my goals. This particular location's my favorite in San Diego. They're the only GNC to have a scale that accurately measures your body fat and body composition. It's helped me keep track of my weight loss and provide insight to what I'm doing right or need to improve. Everyone's very friendly and interested in helping you accomplish your goals. read more

Just moved here and checked out the local gnc, lucas helped me out according to my body goals with providing the best supplements I needed.

Gotta get my amino acids on! So I normally go to the Vitamin Shoppe, but there isn't one near me so I went to this GNC to get my amino acid supplement. I was also looking for a good fat burner to use for days I do cardio. The guy was very knowledgeable, and presented me with several options, and then made a suggested based on my routine and history. He was listening to me, and not just trying to make a sale. This store is very small and their selection is nowhere near as good as it is at the Vitamin Shoppe, but when you are in a bind and need something quick, this is a great local spot to hit up. read more

came in for a supplement and was helped by Joao, super helpful and knowledgeable dude got me hooked up w all i needed quickly great spot, great staff ! read more

The customer service that Lucas, the store manager, provided was extraordinary. I have never met a manager or employee who is so genuine and patient in helping customers. I had visited another GNC location a few days ago and was told that I would be getting a discount at my next purchase, which I later found out was some misinformation. Lucas spent 30 mins double checking the information I had recieved previously. He made calls to his supervisor and even to the GNC I had visited trying to help me out. Although I am not from the area, I would definitely back to this location. read more
