Graded #307 · C
Strengths
- Both injectable and needle-free oral tablet forms of semaglutide and tirzepatide
- LegitScript certified
- Transparent cash-pay pricing with cancel-anytime subscription
- Legal entity and address publicly disclosed (Ascend Vitality LLC, Sheridan, WY)
Where it loses points
- All medications are compounded — FDA does not review compounded drugs for safety/effectiveness
- No named compounding pharmacy partner disclosed
- No public state-by-state availability list (homepage cites exclusions: LA, MS, KS, NM, WV)
- Per-dose/titration pricing not published; only 'starting at' prices shown
Graded #382 · C
Strengths
- Named owner publicly disclosed (Carrie Zatelli) — uncommon in this segment
- Physical clinic address published (Macedonia, Ohio)
- Direct phone and email published for human contact
- Hybrid model: Ohio in-person clinic for body scans and red-light therapy plus 50-state telehealth
- Plan includes evaluation, treatment plan, medication when appropriate, and optional nutrition coaching
Where it loses points
- Conflicting scope: hero claims all 50 states, but footer says services are Ohio-only — the 50-state track runs through partner group Dr Telx
- Pricing not published — gated behind a phone assessment
- Owner's clinical credentials (PA, RN, MD?) not stated
- Telehealth patients are treated by partner group Dr Telx, not EverFit itself — relationship isn't fully transparent
- No LegitScript or NABP .pharmacy seal displayed
