Graded #234 · C
Strengths
- Transparent self-pay pricing with no insurance required
- Offers both compounded and brand-name semaglutide and tirzepatide
- Uniform compounded pricing across all doses with supplies included
- Publishes its full list of covered states

Graded #312 · C
Strengths
- LegitScript certified, licensed in all 50 states, DEA registered, HIPAA/SOC 2 Type II compliant
- Broad insurance acceptance including Medicare, Medicaid, BCBS, Aetna, Cigna, UHC, and Humana

- Brand-name FDA-approved GLP-1s (Wegovy, Zepbound) at full clinical doses with home delivery
- Named clinical leadership (CMO Dr. Saba Haq, Chief Physician Dr. Vivek Chander) and disclosed founder
Where it loses points

- No compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide option for patients seeking lower-cost alternatives
- Medication cost is separate from visit fees ($99 initial, $75 follow-up) — total self-pay cost is higher
- No labs or dedicated nutrition/coaching program included in any plan
- Pharmacy fulfillment via Klinic Pharmacy Hub Services LLC (non-dispensing hub); actual dispensing is third-party
