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 #204 · C
Strengths
- Publishes the full price matrix — every medication, form and commitment length — on a public /plans page before checkout
- Flat dose pricing: 'Same price at every dose,' so moving to a higher dose does not raise the monthly bill
- States plainly that its compounded GLP-1s 'are not FDA-approved and have not been evaluated by the FDA for safety, efficacy, or quality'
- Microdose line prices low-dose semaglutide or tirzepatide at $149/mo month-to-month for people sensitive to side effects
- Oral ODT semaglutide offered for members who want to avoid injections
Where it loses points
- Partner pharmacies are never named — the site refers only to 'a partner U.S. pharmacy' (a material disclosure gap for a YMYL purchase)
- The advertised 'Plans start at $129/mo' is the 12-month prepay rate; true month-to-month is $199 semaglutide and $279 tirzepatide
- No public list of states served — eligibility depends on where unnamed 'partner providers are licensed'
- Site banner promises 'Prescribed and shipped within 48 hours' while the shipping policy states 2-5 business days to process plus 3-7 to deliver
- Medications cannot be returned or refunded once they ship from the pharmacy
