Graded #374 · C
Strengths
- Physician-led clinic with a named team — physicians, NPs and registered nurses
- Offers brand-name (Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, Mounjaro) and compounded options
- No upfront payment — you start with a registered nurse consult
- Microdosing GLP-1 approach available for longer-term use
Where it loses points
- Telehealth only in Louisiana and Texas — not nationwide
- No upfront pricing published; cost depends on the plan after consult
- Compounded options prescribed only when medically appropriate
- Broader aesthetic/clinic focus, not a GLP-1-only specialist
Graded #467 · C
Strengths
- Dose-banded monthly pricing published on-site ($249–$649/mo across tiers)
- Both a semaglutide-range and a tirzepatide-range (GLP-1/GIP) option, plus microdosing
- Medication included in the monthly price with free fast shipping when prescribed
- Broad reach claimed (over 40 states)
Where it loses points
- Molecules not named on-site (only 'Personalized GLP-1') — compounded status is inferred
- No FDA compounded-medication disclaimer published
- No named compounding pharmacy partner — prescriptions are patient-directed
- LegitScript certification, medical director, and full state list not disclosed
- Pricier than several compounded competitors
