Graded #81 · C
Strengths
- Clinical care provided by Open Loop Healthcare Partners, PC — a reused, verified MSO network
- Named leadership: Steven Bishop MD (CMO), Phillip Gray PharmD (Chief Pharmacist), Tom Foster (President)
- Itemized public pricing: compounded semaglutide $149/mo, tirzepatide $179/mo, Ozempic $1,299, Zepbound $1,399
- Both compounded and branded GLP-1s offered side by side — unusual for a compounded provider
- Self-pay model with no insurance required and no separate consultation fee
Where it loses points
- No public list of states served — you must complete intake to learn if your state qualifies
- No named 503A compounding pharmacy partner, limiting licensure verification
- No LegitScript, PCAB, or BBB trust badges visible
- Brand confusion: site schema names 'CatalystMD' while the customer-facing brand is Aquivia Health
- FDA has issued this company a warning letter; the letter is public in FDA's warning-letter database
Graded #187 · C
Strengths
- Both semaglutide and tirzepatide available
- Compounded GLP-1 access
Where it loses points
- The advertised rates are 'as low as' figures footnoted 'based on plan structure and eligibility', and the plan selector sits behind the medical intake — the rate you are offered is not knowable before you hand over a medical history
- A $24.99 provider consultation fee is charged on top, and the refund policy deducts $200 for 'clinical coordination and account setup'
- The homepage advertises 'no long-term commitments or cancellation fees' while the terms require the membership fee to be paid 'in a single sum', call it non-refundable and refer to a 'Membership Term'
- The only figure smaller than the advertised rate is a $29 CareCredit/Klarna instalment, which is a financing payment rather than the price of a month of medication
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
