Get Thin MD vs Primary Clinic (Direct GLP)
The verdict
Primary Clinic (Direct GLP) takes it — 68.7/100 to 66.7/100, but only just.
Primary Clinic (Direct GLP) grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Primary Clinic (Direct GLP) is a Direct Primary Care membership rather than the usual direct-to-consumer GLP-1 marketplace. Get Thin MD is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
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 #184 · C
Strengths
- 3-month compounded semaglutide at $169/mo is among the lowest ongoing prices in the category
- Price-lock promise — same price every dose, no hidden fees
- Both compounded and brand-name options on one platform (sema, tirz, plus Ozempic and Zepbound)
- Nationwide availability with async evaluation — no in-person visit
- Broader wellness menu (sermorelin, NAD+, HRT, hair loss) lets you consolidate protocols
Where it loses points
- Compounded medications aren't FDA-approved and lack the review of brand-name GLP-1s
- Pharmacy partners not named — no way to verify the compounding source or batch testing
- Claims nationwide coverage but publishes no state list — confirm at intake
- Headline results (9.6 lbs in 30 days) come from self-reported patient data, not a trial
- Wide wellness funnel may steer you toward non-weight-loss protocols
