Graded #449 · C
Strengths
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide plus a low-dose GLP-1 "Longevity Microdose" option, all provider-guided
- Concierge model: dedicated provider, direct secure messaging, provider-directed dosing, and structured check-ins
- Every plan bundles compounded medication, provider care, and discreet direct delivery with no hidden fees
- No charge if you are not approved; published support hours (Mon-Fri, 9am-5pm ET) by phone and email
Where it loses points
- GLP-1 program pricing is not published on the site — quoted only after provider review, so cost is not comparable up front
- Compounding pharmacy partners are not publicly named (a transparency gap for medication sourcing)
- No brand-name Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro, or Ozempic — compounded formulations only
- State availability is not published; private-pay only, and the practice serves women, so it is not a fit for everyone
- No LegitScript or PCAB accreditation displayed on the marketing site
Graded #208 · C
Strengths
- Flat monthly membership bundles the medication, telehealth visits, a 1:1 care coach and a licensed registered dietitian — one price, no hidden fees
- Same price every dose, no auto-renewal, cancel anytime; free shipping and no insurance needed (FSA eligible)
- Names a compounding pharmacy partner (Foothills Pharmacy) and states it services all 50 states
- Free, no-obligation online assessment before you pay anything
Where it loses points
- Shows a LegitScript 'approval' but links only a generic directory search, not a verifiable seal — we couldn't independently confirm it
- Promo-driven pricing with a countdown timer and 'price increases' urgency; the standing membership is $129 (sema) / $179 (tirz)
- A technology platform that coordinates care, not the medical provider; individual clinicians and a medical director aren't named on the site
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide only — no brand-name (Wegovy/Zepbound) options
- Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-reviewed or approved — a different evidence and regulatory tier than brand-name
