Graded #426 · C
Strengths
- Publishes exactly which states require a live audio or video visit before a prescription, which almost no competitor discloses
- Names its prescribing group, Arora Health & Aesthetics, and gives a medical compliance contact
- Terms state service is available to residents of all 50 states, and the shipping policy matches
- Dates its own editorial reviews on treatment pages
- HSA/FSA accepted with receipts provided for reimbursement
Where it loses points
- No price is published anywhere on the site, on treatment pages or in the intake, so you cannot compare before starting a visit
- Never states whether its semaglutide and tirzepatide are compounded or brand-name
- No dispensing pharmacy is named, only licensed pharmacies in our network
- Cancellation terms are not published, only presented at checkout
- Prescriptions cannot be returned once dispensed, and the refund policy is otherwise unstated
Graded #177 · C
Strengths
- Free medical consultation — no charge to talk with a provider before starting
- Pay-per-vial pricing with no long-term subscription commitment required to participate
- Names its compounding pharmacy partner (Strive Pharmacy, 503A accredited) — a real transparency signal
- LegitScript badge links to a genuine, working LegitScript verification checker for the domain
- Board-certified Medical Director and named nurse-practitioner care team, not anonymous providers
Where it loses points
- State availability list is not published — Terms of Service only says "certain states"
- All product purchases are non-refundable per Terms of Service
- Compounded injectable only — no oral option, no brand-name Wegovy/Zepbound/Ozempic/Mounjaro
- Terms of Service also describe an optional subscription tier with a 3-month minimum, despite marketing emphasizing "no subscriptions"
- No insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid accepted — cash-pay or HSA/FSA only
