    year ended December 30, 1996.

         (2)  The Company's Annual Report Filed on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal

         (4)  The Company's Current Report on Form 8-K dated June 24, 1997.

         (5)  The Company's Annual Report on Form 8-K dated August 1, 1997.

         (6)  The description of the Company's common stock, par value $.01 per
    share, contained in the Company's Registration Statement filed on Form 8-A
    pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
    (the "Exchange Act").

    All documents subsequently filed by the Company pursuant to Sections 13(a),
13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a post-effective
amendment which indicates that all remaining securities offered have been sold
or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be
incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be part hereof
from the date of filing such documents.  Any statement in a document
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to
be modified or superseded for the purposes of this Registration Statement to the
extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed
document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein
modifies or supersedes such statement.  Any statement so modified or superseded
shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part

    ITEM 4.  DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

    Not applicable.


    ITEM 5.  INTEREST OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

    Not applicable.


    ITEM 6.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

    Article TENTH of the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation provides that the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless, to
the fullest extent authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law, its
officers and directors against all expenses, liability and loss actually and
reasonably incurred in connection with any civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative action, suit or proceeding.  The Certificate of Incorporation also
extends indemnification to those serving at the request of the Company as
directors, officers, employees or agents of other enterprises.


                                         II-1
<PAGE>

    In addition, Article NINTH of the Company's Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation provides that no director shall be personally
liable for any breach of fiduciary duty.  Article NINTH does not eliminate a
director's liability (i) for a breach of his or her duty of loyalty to the
Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts of intentional misconduct, (iii)
under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law for unlawful
declarations of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions, or (iv)
for any transactions from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit.

    Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation
to indemnify its directors and officers against expenses (including attorney's
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlements actually and reasonably
incurred by them in connection with any action, suit or proceeding brought by
third parties, if such directors or officers acted in good faith and in a manner
they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reason to believe their conduct was unlawful.  In a derivative action, i.e., one
by or in the right of the corporation, indemnification may be made only for
expenses actually and reasonably incurred by directors and officers in
connection with the defense or settlement of an action or suit, and only with
respect to a matter as to which they shall have acted in good faith and in a
manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of
the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made if such person
shall have been adjudged liable to the corporation, unless and only to the
extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought shall determine
upon application that the defendant officers or directors are reasonably
entitled to indemnity for such expenses despite such adjudication of liability.

    Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a
corporation may eliminate or limit the personal liability of a director to the
corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary
duty as a director, provided that such provision shall not eliminate or limit
the liability of a director (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty
to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good
faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law,
(iii) under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv) for any
transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.  No
such provision shall eliminate or limit the liability of a director for any act
or omission occurring prior to the date when such provision becomes effective.


    ITEM 7.  EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.

    Not applicable.

    ITEM 9.  UNDERTAKINGS.

    (a)  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

              (1)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are
         being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement: 
         (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
         Securities Act of 1933; (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts 
         or events arising after the effective date of the Registration 
         Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
         individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in 
         the information set forth in the Registration Statement. 
         Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume
         of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered
         would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the
         low or high and of the estimated maximum offering range may be 
         reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant
         to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price
         represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate
         offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee"
         table in the effective Registration Statement; and (iii) to include 
         any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
         previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material
         change to such information in the Registration Statement; provided,
         however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
         information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by
         those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or
         furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13
         or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated 
         by reference in the Registration Statement.

              (2)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
         Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be 
         deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities 
         offered therein, and the offering of such securities at the time shall
         be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

              (3)  To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
         amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold
         at the termination of the offering. 

    (b)  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement
shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

    (c)  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

Henry Schein, Inc.

Melville, New York  11747

Ladies and Gentlemen:

    We are acting as counsel to Henry Schein, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-8 with
exhibits thereto (the "Registration Statement") filed by the Company under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder, relating to the registration of 2,716,703 shares (the "Shares") of
common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Company.  The Shares are issuable
by the Company upon exercise of certain stock options (i) granted pursuant to
the Micro Bio-Medics, Inc. 1982 Incentive Stock Option Plan, the Micro
Bio-Medics, Inc. 1989 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan, the Micro Bio-Medics,
Inc. 1992 Incentive and Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan or certain stock options
granted to non-employee directors of Micro Bio-Medics ("MBM") (collectively, the
"Assumed Options"), which options have been assumed by the Company under the
terms and conditions of Section 7.8 of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated
March 7, 1997, among the Company, MBM and HSI Acquisition Corporation, or (ii)
granted or to be granted pursuant to the Company's 1994 Stock Option Plan, as
amended and restated (the "1994 Plan").

    We have examined and relied upon originals or copies, certified or
otherwise authenticated to our satisfaction, of all such corporate records,
documents, agreements and instruments relating to the Company, and certificates
of public officials and of representatives of the Company, and have made such
investigations of law, and have discussed with representatives of the Company
and such other persons such questions of fact, as we have deemed proper or
necessary as a basis for rendering this opinion.

    Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the
Shares will be, when issued upon due exercise of the Assumed Options or options
granted under the 1994 Plan, as the case may be, in accordance with the
provisions of the stock option agreements and underlying plans (including
payment of the option exercise price provided for therein), legally issued,
fully paid and non-assessable.

    We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as Exhibit 5 to the
Registration Statement.  In giving the foregoing consent, we do not admit that
we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder.

Very truly yours,


PROSKAUER ROSE LLP
