Graded #330 · C
Strengths
- Both compounded and brand-name GLP-1 options
- In-home medical services in major cities
- Competitive compounded pricing ($199/$299)
- Broader concierge medicine services available
Where it loses points
- No visible LegitScript or PCAB accreditation
- 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
Graded #442 · C
Strengths
- First-party Novo Nordisk pharmacy — the most authoritative branded Wegovy channel
- $199/mo intro pricing on Wegovy 0.25/0.5 mg starter doses (through 6/30/2026), the lowest brand self-pay price
- $349/mo standard self-pay is well below the ~$1,300/mo retail list price
- Ships to all 50 states with no telehealth-platform middleman fees
- Cold-chain logistics handled directly by Novo Nordisk
Where it loses points
- Wegovy only — no Ozempic, no tirzepatide, no compounded GLP-1
- Requires an existing Wegovy prescription — no prescribing clinicians or telehealth intake
- No clinical support included — your own prescriber handles titration and side effects
- Manufacturer-set pricing can change at any time
- $199 pen intro covers only the first 2 fills for new patients (through 6/30/2026); maintenance doses are $349/mo ($399 HD)
