Through time and tide, I grew wearied and utter dismayed from the national corporate standard pharmacies of Walgreens and CVS. I was in search of hair conditioner specifically to moisture dry hair. In the passage and consumption of my wanderlust travels I encountered Thriftway Pharmacy located between 45th Street and 46th Streets intersecting 10th Avenue in Hell's Kitchen, Midtown West. Customer service is "as is" described by previous Yelp reviews! Attentive to customers' needs and take the time to service. Oddly, I have previously purchased hair shampoo but now lacking

They will try to tell you your insurance doesnt work or that you dont have insurance so youll pay cash and theyll charge you extra. Scammers and really the problem with the medical distrust in America.

Ordering was quite straightforward, and the staff was quite helpful, polite, and compassionate when my credit card kept diminishing due to out-of-country transactions. The medications contained inside the package were tightly sealed and in great shape. Thank you so much!

Not open Sundays. This is a great, neighborhood pharmacy. Service feels personal and caring. I tried to update the incorrect operating hours which Google lists here, but even though they published my verification photo of the hours posted on the front door, Google wouldn't correct the hours listed here. Oh well, I tried.

Probably good for pharmaceutical products but definitely not good for UPS. Person at counter did not know how to give an email receipt yet did not inform me in advance. The person I saw last week knew how to do it. We all know that on occasion packages go missing... packages cost dollars and jobs. We all require receipts to follow up on missing packages. The people today at this pharmacy were non-plus that giving me a receipt was an issue and just dismissed it. Suggest go to a UPS store for any package drop offs not Thrift Pharmacy. A pity because I wouldnt trust going here again.

Ive been a customer for some time. Ive always had positive experiences with Thriftway. I never really gave much thought to this local pharmacy. I noticed the employees are always very kind & helpful. Perhaps two years ago, I decided to get my prescriptions filled there. Ill spare readers boring details but I had an issue this week with medication I need to take daily. It had to do with the amount of medication & my insurance coverage. With the ease of a trained magician, the pharmacist took care of everything at no cost. I was almost in shock at being believed & valued as a customer &
