We may earn a commission if you start care through some of these links, at no extra cost to you. It never moves the WeighScore, which is the weighted average of the six factors shown for every provider, and what we write about a provider is the same either way. See our disclosure.

California Trim Clinic

Graded #471 · C

Strengths

  • Women's microdosing program specifically designed for perimenopause/menopause weight management
  • 100% virtual nationwide telehealth; medications shipped discreetly to patients' homes
  • 503A state-licensed compounding pharmacies with patient-specific prescription preparation
  • $199 initial plan covers doctor consultation, telehealth setup, and full onboarding
  • Ongoing 3-month treatment plans include compounded medication and licensed provider check-ins

Where it loses points

  • Ongoing medication pricing not publicly disclosed — revealed only after $199 intake and provider approval
  • No LegitScript certification or any other third-party accreditation visible on the site
  • No physician names or clinical leadership disclosed publicly
  • States served listed as 'nationwide' for telehealth but no state-by-state list published
  • Microdose framing uses sub-clinical doses — potentially lower weight-loss efficacy than standard GLP-1 protocols
ElleS

Graded #424 · C

Strengths

  • Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide in both injectable and oral-capsule forms, plus microdose options

  • Full legal suite published — Terms, Privacy Policy, Privacy Practices, and Medical Consent
  • Broad menu: also TRT, HRT (estradiol), sexual health, hair loss, and longevity (sermorelin, NAD+)

Where it loses points

  • Pricing not shown publicly — products and costs appear only after the intake flow
  • Sold as 3- and 6-month packages rather than simple monthly plans
  • Compounding pharmacy partner not named ('made in licensed US facilities')
  • Not LegitScript-certified (no certification displayed)
