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 #62 · C
Strengths
- Transparent flat-rate pricing including medication and shipping with no hidden fees
- Low $50 initial one-hour consultation
- Offers both injectable and oral tirzepatide options
- No membership fees and pricing decreases as treatment progresses
- Care from a board-certified family nurse practitioner
Where it loses points
- Compounded medications are not FDA-approved
- Available in only six states (NE, IA, SD, KS, CO, AZ)
- Cash-pay only; no insurance noted
- No named compounding pharmacy partner disclosed
- No LegitScript certification shown on site
