Fella Health vs NowPatient
The verdict
NowPatient takes it — 65.5/100 to 64/100, but only just.
NowPatient grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. NowPatient is a US-UK telehealth platform offering brand-name GLP-1 weight management access including Mounjaro, Wegovy (injection and oral tablet), and Saxenda. Fella Health is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

Graded #248 · C
Strengths
- Specialized vertical — program designed for men, particularly 'bigger guys'
- Free 1:1 health coaching included with the membership
- 6-month money-back guarantee if the program doesn't work
- Flat monthly price stays the same as your dose escalates
- Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide available
Where it loses points
- Limited to men's health vertical — not available to women
- Available in only 20 published states (not nationwide)
- Exact GLP-1 monthly cost not published on the public site — only an 'under $10/day' starting figure
- Pricing transparency below industry standard for compounded GLP-1 telehealth
Graded #222 · C
Strengths
- Free telehealth consultation — you only pay for the medication
- Brand-name Mounjaro, Wegovy injection, Wegovy oral tablet, and Saxenda all available
- One of the few platforms offering Wegovy in both injection and oral pill form

Where it loses points
- Cash-pay pricing tracks full brand list price (~$1,000–$1,350/mo)
- No compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide (usually the cheaper route)
- State availability determined during intake, not shown upfront
