Graded #279 · C
Strengths
- An established medical group with a defined 12-week programme rather than an open-ended subscription
- The price range and the 12-week total are both published, once you reach the costs page
- Semaglutide is prescribed and dispensed under a compounded pathway with clinician oversight
Where it loses points
- The published rate is a range by dose strength, $199 to $299, so the figure quoted is the floor rather than what a titrated patient pays
- The 12-week programme totals $699 including a telemedicine platform fee that is never itemised — about $233/mo all-in, not $199
- The weight-loss landing page carries no price at all; the numbers are two pages deeper, in the FAQ and the costs page
- Semaglutide and tirzepatide are not priced separately — one range covers the whole programme
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
Graded #367 · C
Strengths
- Physician-owned and LegitScript Certified — strong trust signals
- Available nationwide in all 50 states
- Care and pharmacy fulfillment run on OpenLoop Health's licensed network
- Broad menu — compounded GLP-1, microdose tirzepatide, NAD+, sermorelin, MIC B12
Where it loses points
- Published pricing is gated behind the intake quiz — no upfront cost shown
- Legal terms and privacy are posted as downloadable documents, not web pages
- Compounded GLP-1 is not FDA-approved and prescribed off-label (per their own notice)
- Longevity and microdose positioning is marketing; evidence varies by use
