Graded #80 · 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 #272 · C
Strengths
- One bundled price covers the provider visit, prescription, shipping and ongoing check-ins, with zero consultation charges
- States you are charged nothing if a provider does not approve you for treatment
- Promises no dose-change surcharges — 'the price we quote is the price you pay, period'
- Semaglutide from $149/mo is competitive against the wider compounded market
- Offers a lower-dose GLP-1 microdose program alongside standard semaglutide and tirzepatide
Where it loses points
- Displays a Trustpilot 'Rated Excellent 4.8 / 5' badge, but no Trustpilot profile exists for the domain or the brand
- Also claims '4.9 based on 300+ Google reviews'; no Google listing for the business could be located
- Its own homepage figures conflict — '10k+' members in the hero versus '1,743+ patients supported' in the counters below
- The actual plan price is confirmed only after provider review, and the three treatment pages publish no prices at all
- No compounding pharmacy, medical group or individual clinician is named anywhere on the site
