Much better than CVS or Duane Read. Good prices competitive. Customer service is better than any other pharmacy in the neighborhood!! THE PERSCRIPTIONS ARE ALWAYS READY WHEN THEY SAY IT IS READY. NOT LIKE CVS AND DUANE REID, NO LONG LINES, NO LOST PERSCRIPTIONS. I have used Park West for 30 years and my health plan switched me to CVS and Duane Reid, that was a disaster, higher prices, lost prescriptions, very long waits and "come back tomorrows" at CVS. I am very satisfied using park west. read more

The place feels disorganized and dated. Don't come here if you want , speed, efficiency and professionalism. There are probably half a dozen staff members but they all seem to be rowing the boat in different directions. The place needs better systems, better management, better pricing. read more

Came in yesterday after being bitten by a dog. The staff was so amazingly helpful - both in terms of what products I should (or should not) purchase and then actually helping me navigate quickly treating the wound. So appreciate their great service. Very much a family / neighborhood vibe and feel. Meant a lot. read more

This is a great neighborhood pharmacy. They are super friendly and helpful. They go the extra mile and locate prescriptions that are hard to find. read more

This place is a gem. They have late hours for a pharmacy and also most things are in stock vs having to order.

Nothing but glowing things to say about this outfit. Kenny is amazingly friend; all staff I have ever dealt with there is friendly; and they have your drugs all ready for you when you walk in the door because they recognize their patrons by sight. I woon't fill my scripts anywhere else. read more

I was a regular client at this real New York Mom & Pop store from 1992 when I moved here from Chicago until 1999 when I got married and we moved to Williamsburg, Brooklyn. All the Staff are great and incredibly helpful. And being a regular they make you feel appreciated! The place is very clean. They deliver and I had a house account. There prices are not over the top, they are NYC prices like everywhere else here. read more

Great service, fast and communicative. Always have my medications in and available. Pharmacists here are very good and their team is always warm and pleasant. They want to make their customers happy and comfortable. This is why you go to a small pharmacy. I've just moved into the neighborhood and they make me feel like I've been a customer here for years. read more

They are quick and speedy at refilling medication. Employees were welcoming and incredibly helpful.

Park West is one of those gems that we must support. They care about their customers and treat them humanely, they are efficient, smart and friendly. It's everything one could ever want from a neighborhood pharmacy. I recommend it to anyone and I seldom make recommendations. read more

Always a good experience in this smaller place with easy to find good quality items on shelves not overly packed. And they'll add extra service unlike most places. They actually waited outside a couple minutes after closing to hand me my prescription. I was biking there and new it was too close to closing so I called on the way. They took my details and boom. Wow! Who does that? read more

I am so happy my insurance is accepted here because I love the quality service and small local store vibe. Love coming here! Also, Smell the soaps they have all sorts of great ones! read more

We have used this pharmacy several times for prescriptions and now go in to buy anything else we need. It is great - clean; small but still with a good selection of most things you need; and excellent friendly, helpful and professional service. It is really a gem. I recommend it. read more

Great local pharmacy right around the block. They are always helpful with recommendations if you are feeling under the weather and Prescriptions are filled promptly. Always as pleasant as an experience can be despite feeling sick. read more

Park West Pharmacy is a fantastic neighborhood Pharmacy! The staff is very professional, and you will appreciate the personal attention and caring manner that is given to all their customers. Our family has been filling all our Rx and buying all our pharmacy products at Park West for over 25 years. They are price competitive in RX, and also for all they sell from the basics to high end beauty & body products. "Claude" is the King of the Pharmacy, who runs it all with charm, professionalism and a great big personality that makes you just smile! Claude is just the greatest! Take your business to Park West, support your local pharmacy!! They will deliver to your apartment, and order for you any products that you request. It's a great feeling to be greeted by a cheery staff, excellent Pharmacists, and after a visit or two, you will actually be called personally by your name! Wouldn't that be great! Park West is #1 on the UWS!!!!! Barbara & Family read more

I've been coming here since I was born. This is a fantastic local pharmacy with a great selection of products. They have travel size toiletry bottles, a great array of sunscreens, shipping supplies, high quality vitamins, and everything you need in a pharmacy. They are quick with prescription refills as well. read more

The customer service at this pharmacy is phenomenal. They actually take the time to help you find the products that you need even if they aren't out on the shelf. The store is exceptionally well organized. The gentleman who helped me find "throat coat" was a life saver. I am glad I stopped by! read more

Much friendlier than the large chains and very helpful. The owner in particular cares about his customers.

I have used this pharmacy intermittently since it opened. I will NOT be going back. I believe in supporting small business' vs. big chains but NOT here. The staff is rude. They comment about you while you wait for your rx to be filled. Then when confronted about this lack of professional behavior the manager and pharmacist grew irate and refused to fill the prescription. because I complained about them talking about about me while standing there!! Hostile misogynist management trickles down to all staff. Apparently this business is not concerned about retaining customers. In fact they don't seem to need them. Avoid like the plague. Find another local store that will greet you with a smile not a sneer. read more

I have been to Park West Pharmacy a few times and have decided, I will now shop there for all of my pharmacy needs. It is great to shop at a local neighborhood store and not some corporate or chain store. Some items may be more expensive here than at Duane Reade, but overall the price is fair. The Pharmacist is wonderful! I went in there last night for some over the counter meds and she was extremely knowledgeable and helpful, and got me exactly what I needed. The staff is all very friendly as well! I highly recommend shopping here and supporting their business, its a much better experience than any of the chain stores. read more

Amazing Pharmacy, I've been coming here for years and have never been disappointed, their professionalism and service is wonderful, I always recommend this pharmacy to all my friends and family because I know they will never be disappointed read more

Sweet neighborhood place. Very knowledgeable and helpful pharmacist and staff in general very nice. Manager is rude and unpleasant but one can easily dismiss him. I recommend this adorable and convenient pharmacy. read more

While I agree that PW Pharmacy is convenient and that they have most of the things I need, I do suggest that the new owner considers that one of his long term employees is a very unpleasant, rude and arrogant person that makes me want to shop elsewhere. His name is Claude. read more

I don't know what the person below is talking about - the staff is NEVER rude!! Especially Claude who is there with a huge smile and so much kindness every day. I love the "small town" feel of it, they are so personable and genuinely invested in you and what's important to you. I love having it as one of my go-to neighborhood places! read more

Up until this afternoon, I would have said I was very pleased with their service. However, THAT died a quick death today during a disagreement about whether they'd already filled a prescription for me or not. In the course of trying to figure out what had gone wrong, the old man who either owns the place or runs the pharmacy made it painfully clear that no matter what the actual problem was, the (completely unrelated to the issue at hand) fact that I take Adderall for ADHD makes me automatically suspect. He mentioned it four times in ten minutes. Since I was trying to pick up my impossible-to-abuse thyroid medication ... irrelevant is kind of an understatement. Pro-tip: demonstrating contempt for your customer's medical conditions makes you BOTH unprofessional AND a hypocrite. I probably would have shrugged and moved on if it had just been a case of crossed wires. But to be sneered at and treated with disrespect by one of the medical professionals supposedly there to help ... pass. I'll be finding a new pharmacy. read more

It is so rare to get personal service today in any business. Kenny and his staff thankfully go against this trend. I was in a jam requiring considerable time and patience and Kenny helped me out. So grateful. Park West is much more than a neighborhood pharmacy read more

Hands down best pharmacy I've been to. The staff is friendly, courteous, and really went out of their way to get me my medication and explain everything I needed to know. Their front store has a great selection of vitamins and supplements from companies that I trust. I recommend anyone searching for a reliable pharmacy to take their prescriptions here read more

Good pharmacy. Good service. They have all types of medicine. Employees are friendly. Will come again.

I've been getting my scripts here for more than ten years. They are also very hood on the phone. It's nice to be known by a local business. Some nice luxury toiletries there but prices are a bit high for basic OTC stuff. read more

Park West provides a level of customer service and care that is rarely seen today. The pharmacists are always helpful and will contact your doctor as needed, answer questions, discuss possible drug side effects and interactions, and generally take excellent care of you. Likewise for the entire staff. The manager of Park West is considerate to a fault. He always gives me a warm hello, and will order products I request, arrange for prompt delivery of medications and other items to my apartment on the occasions I am not feeling well, and generally takes care of my entire family (including my mother who, in her 90s, had her share of emergency deliveries from this drug store). A friend of mine is about to move to the neighborhood, and one of the first places I mentioned to her is my fabulous pharmacy, Park West. read more

Staff is extremely rude and items are overpriced but I deal w them bc the location is convenient to my apt.

After many years at a local CVS Pharmacy, ordering my meds was such an anxiety producing experience that I looked for a new pharmacy. I found Park West Pharmacy through a neighbor. I could not be more pleased. The staff has been so supportive and helpful. I can breath easily thinking about my orders now. Thank you, Park West. read more

Great neighborhood drug store! We have been going here for years and are very pleased with their professionalism and great choice of items. It is just wonderful to be able to walk down Columbus Avenue and have a real pharmacy, that is not part of a chain, to fill prescriptions and buy all kinds of staples - from greeting cards to vitamins. It's interesting, I was looking for a cream with glycolic acid and found a line called Aqua Glycolic. I took a chance and bought some hand and body lotion and looked it up online when I got home for reviews. I found info on drugstore.com and guess what? Not only was it top rated, but it was 10% cheaper at Park West. I love the idea that by shopping here I am supporting the small businesses in my neighborhood. Please do the same in my neighborhood and yours!!! read more

I live in the neighborgood and have been going to Park West Pharmacy to support the small moms-and-pops stores for years. HOWEVER, because of my recent experience I will think twice before I go there. I went to fill a fluoride prescription for my son, and the supposed owner flat out lied to me about the availability of what I wated. He sold me, something else instead. After speaking with my pharmacist friend, I determined that Park West misrepresented information, and went back to ask for refund. The same guys almost laughed in my face. Terrible customer service, but even worse, incompetent pharmacist. STAY AWAY!!! read more

Great neighborhood pharmacy; has everything we need plus upscale brands, cards etc. Everyone is very friendly, pharmacists know their stuff and are very helpful; and prices are reasonable. read more

A wonderful neighborhood pharmacy where the staff is always pleasant and greet you with a smile. The owner knows his returning customers whenever they come in and you really feel like you're being taken care of and actually valued. In addition, Park West does an amazing job of consistently stocking the pharmacy with all of the medications that their clients need. I can't tell you how many pharmacies I had to call (10+) to find a specific medication and the only business that stocked it was and still is Park West. I can't rave about this business enough and I'm so glad to have found it! read more

This is, hand to God, the greatest pharmacy since sliced bread! Everyone there is so kind and helpful (esp. Claude and Kenny); they will bend over backwards to help you with your prescriptions and will literally fight for you if your insurance company is giving you a hard time. I will never go back to another pharmacy. Park West is way above and beyond all the Duane Reades, the CVSs, the Walgreens, etc. They have saved my life (no exaggeration) more than a few times. My doctor even loves them. They know me by name! What big-name chain pharmacy customer can say that? They also have great everyday and specialty health and beauty items and are always willing to special order what you cannot find on the shelf. I highly recommend. :) read more

Park West is a great neighborhood institution. You are not a number in here. Try going to CVS, you will be, you practically have to take a number. Here, there may be a line, but they know their customers by name and take good care of us. I like the owner, I trust the pharmacists and they are so helpful answering questions. I like all of the employees. When you are picking up prescriptions, you appreciate the fact that they know what kind of generic you tolerate best. If you want something in the merchandise line they will order it. I buy a lot of household items here as well. And when not feeling well, I have had deliveries. Very convenient for me because I live on the park where there is no commerce. We just pop to Columbus for our Park West Pharmacy! read more

Love this place. Staff is always super helpful, both in the pharmacy and the store. Al is the best!

Forget CVS and Duane Reade - This is a great pharmacy! The earlier negative reviews refer to an older pharmacist who is no longer there (I know, I had trouble with him too). The new owner/pharmacist, Kenny, is wonderful. Prescriptions are usually filled within minutes. If you call, there is no wait or annoying auto-menu to get through to speak with a pharmacist. They will promptly call your doctor for refills and will assist you with "vacation" length refills. They also deliver. The price for medications are the same, and in the case of one of medications, cheaper, than CVS. The rest of the staff is courteous, helpful and informed. The store is well-stocked with other items such as over-the-counter medications, toiletries, vitamins, etc. (including greeting cards and reading glasses). Again, the prices compare to the those of the chain stores. If they don't have what you want, they will order it and call you when it comes in, usually the next day. I have lived in the neighborhood for over 20 years. Many of the local businesses are closing as more people chose to shop at the chain stores. We need to support our local businesses that still provide personalize services with a real human touch. read more
