Doc's Pharmacy has announced this week that it will close its Manhattan location, effective April 7, 2016.

In an email notice to customers, company president Anthony Sartoris said "economically we cannot sustain this location."

After the location's closing, all prescriptions on file there will automatically be transferred to CVS located in New Lenox, 2050 Nelson Rd. Customers need not take any action at this time.
