CoraDoc vs Primary Clinic (Direct GLP)
The verdict
CoraDoc takes it — 76.8/100 to 65.5/100.
CoraDoc grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. CoraDoc is a nationwide (all 50 states) doctor-prescribed GLP-1 weight-loss telehealth service offering compounded semaglutide (from $99/mo) and tirzepatide (from $165/mo) as flat, no-subscription programs.
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.

Graded #49 · C
Strengths
- Low flat pricing — compounded semaglutide from $99/mo, tirzepatide from $165/mo, no subscription
- Triple Free Promise: free provider visit, free 2-day shipping, and free supplies included
- Available in all 50 states; HSA/FSA plus Afterpay/Klarna/Affirm; full refund if not approved
- Full legal suite published (Terms, Privacy, Refund Policy); board-certified providers
Where it loses points
- Lowest $99 price is the longest-commitment tier (programs range about $99-$199/mo)
- Compounding pharmacy partner not named
- 'LegitScript Certified' is stated prominently but was not independently verified here
- Operating legal entity not clearly named on the site
Graded #219 · C
Strengths
- Direct Primary Care model integrates GLP-1 with continuous primary care — unlike most direct-to-consumer platforms
- GLP-1 at wholesale cost with no markup — semaglutide from $65/mo, tirzepatide from $110/mo (members only)
- Unlimited primary care visits, direct text access, and same-day care bundled in the $89/mo membership
- Routine labs and thousands of medications included in membership — no surprise bills
- Per-dose pricing shown publicly for all 8 dose tiers of both semaglutide and tirzepatide
Where it loses points
- The medication price is on top of an $89/mo direct-primary-care membership, which the FAQ states does not include the drug — all-in is about $174/mo for semaglutide and $222/mo for tirzepatide
- Prices are published as dose BANDS rather than per dose, and the cheapest tirzepatide band starts at 1.25 mg, below the 2.5 mg labelled starting dose
- The pricing is rendered entirely in JavaScript, so nothing on the page is readable without running the site's bundle
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
