About Us

We are a family run, Irish owned business based in the picturesque tourist town of Kenmare, Co. Kerry. Excellence, quality and friendly service has been the cornerstone of Brosnan's pharmacy from the day we opened our doors and remains so today. At the core of our pharmacy is a dedicated team of local people, many of whom have been the friendly face of the business that our customers have come to know and trust for quite some time. We are lucky to have such a wonderful team working together and it is this team that ensures you and your family receive the highest standard of care when you come to Brosnan’s.

Below you can read a little more about the three pharmacists who work here at Haven Pharmacy Brosnan's.

Pharmacists

Angela Brosnan, Pharmacist

Angela Brosnan is the third generation of pharmacists in the Brosnan family and shares the same passion for excellence and quality that were the hallmarks of her father and grandfather who first started the pharmacy many years ago.

Angela graduated from Trinity College Dublin in pharmacy and returned to live in Kenmare in 2000. Since then she has been at the centre of Bronsan’s pharmacy and is always on hand to help customers and to offer expert advice on medications and treatments. Angela has also completed multiple specialist training courses including Health Risk Assessment from the Irish Heart Foundation, Flu Vaccination Training and Intolerance Testing Training.

A Kenmare local through and through, Angela is a keen golfer at Kenmare Golf Club and an active member of the local community.

Niamh O'Leary, Pharmacist

Niamh is from Glenflesk Killarney and like Angela, she trained in Trinity College Dublin. With over 20 years of experience, Niamh has the knowledge and expertise to ensure that you are in safe hands when it comes to advice. Her kind personality and way with people make her perfectly suited to care for you and your family.

Gráinne Kilcullen, Pharmacist

Gráinne is our pharmacist who finally moved to Kenmare after years of travelling over and back from Bantry, Co. Cork! Gráinne qualified in Aberdeen and is an essential part of the pharmacist team here at Brosnan’s. If you have a question about a medication you can rest assured that Gráinne will be there to offer expert help and trusted advice.

James Brosnan, Retired Pharmacist

James Brosnan is Angela’s father and was at the head of Brosnan’s pharmacy for many years until passing the torch to his daughter. A 2nd generation pharmacist with over 50 years of experience serving local people, James is now retired but is still very much a central figure in Brosnan’s pharmacy.

Here at Brosan's we offer a wide range of services for you and your family. In addition to offering the best in both prescriptions and advice we also have a diverse range of services including vaccinations, a passport photo service and of course, our in-store beautician service. You can find our more about each service below... 

Flu Vaccination

We provide a flu vaccine service here at Brosnan's pharmacy, due to the pandemic at present we are following HSE guidelines to provide the flu vaccine first to those on the high risk priority list. If you would like more information please feel free to drop in for a chat or contact us directly.

Prescriptions

At Haven Pharmacy Brosnan’s we offer one of the widest ranges of prescription and over-the-counter medications. We have strong working relationships with all of the local doctors and we take pride in making sure you receive the best service possible when choosing us for your medication needs. We collect prescriptions twice a day from the doctor practices and then either have them ready for collection at the pharmacy or we also can deliver when required.

When it comes to over-the-counter medications our knowledgeable team are always on hand to offer advice and to help recommend the best choices for your needs.

Beautician 

Our resident qualified beautician & makeup artist Chantelle Reidy is on hand to offer advice on skincare, makeup, colour matching and also provide a makeup service if you would like to have your makeup done professionally before that upcoming wedding or special occasion. Chantelle is also trained in many skincare brands that we have in store but you will usually find her behind our Clarins counter!

*please note during this time we are unable to provide our makeup service, but do not worry, as soon as Chantelle will be able to do so, she will have her brushes and palettes in hand, ready to go!*
