Graded #416 · C
Strengths
- Physical address in Lake Forest CA
- Named medical director (Dr. Steve Groke)
- Both semaglutide and tirzepatide including ODT tablets
- Compounding disclaimer present on site
Where it loses points
- Only 5 states (AZ, CA, FL, TX, NV)
- No LegitScript or PCAB accreditation
- Primarily a local medspa expanding into telehealth
- Only a first-month semaglutide price ($375, originally $499) is published; ongoing monthly price and all tirzepatide pricing remain unpublished
Graded #255 · C
Strengths
- Covers both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide and can prescribe brand-name GLP-1s when clinically appropriate.
- LegitScript-certified (seal #50716646), available in all 50 states, with tiered pricing shown before checkout.
- No membership fee and free expedited shipping on all orders; online intake with no appointment required in many cases.
- Prices drop with longer commitments (semaglutide to $149/mo, tirzepatide to $224/mo on a 12-month plan).
Where it loses points
- Does not name its compounding pharmacy or its clinical partner medical group, so the fulfillment chain is not verifiable.
- Pricing is described as illustrative and may change by dose, pharmacy availability, and eligibility — final cost shows only at checkout.
- Very new brand (2026, trademark pending) spanning many verticals, with a short track record in GLP-1 care.
- Compounded medications are not FDA-approved or therapeutically equivalent to Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound.
