Genesis Lifestyle Medicine grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Genesis Lifestyle Medicine is a hybrid in-office and telehealth medical spa with 18 clinic locations across 8 states, offering brick-and-mortar accountability uncommon among DTC GLP-1 providers.
