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 #451 · C
Strengths
- Prescribes semaglutide or tirzepatide within a perimenopause and menopause hormone-and-metabolic care plan
- Care delivered by a named women's-health nurse practitioner (Josie Cowburn, DNP, FNP-C)
- Transparent flat program fee from $139/mo, with a $99/mo standalone GLP-1 support option
Where it loses points
- Available only to Oregon and Washington residents
- GLP-1 medication is billed separately by the pharmacy and not included in the program fee
- Dispensing pharmacy is not publicly named
