- Competitive compounded pricing ($199/$299)
- Broader concierge medicine services available
Where it loses points

- No physical address disclosed
- Limited to LA, NY, and 25+ cities — not nationwide
- Brand-name options at $1,999/mo — very high
- Semaglutide bills $199/mo but ships only every 90 days (tirzepatide every 60 days); 4-month minimum commitment required
