Graded #151 · C
Strengths
- Spanish-first, fully bilingual GLP-1 program tailored to Latino food and lifestyle - a genuinely underserved niche
- Compounded semaglutide, tirzepatide, and oral semaglutide from $199/mo, with installment pay (Klarna, Afterpay, Affirm)
- Free initial consultation; medications shipped discreetly to your door after a medical evaluation
- Includes 24/7 support, 4 virtual visits a year, and ongoing nutrition coaching
- Physician-supervised program (Utah medical backing) with continuous follow-up
Where it loses points
- Utah-based, and the full list of states served is not published
- Only a '$199/mo starting' price is shown upfront; tirzepatide and oral-semaglutide pricing isn't published
- The compounding pharmacy is not named (a 'provider pharmacies' page exists but lists no name)
- Compounded GLP-1 medications are not FDA-approved - not brand Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, or Mounjaro
- No LegitScript certification displayed
Graded #267 · C
Strengths
- Branded, FDA-approved GLP-1s — Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, Mounjaro and Saxenda — rather than compounded copies
- The membership band is published before intake and is banded openly by level of coach support
- Medical visits, daily monitoring and 1-on-1 coaching are included in the membership at every tier
- Led by CMO Dr. Henry Legere (UC Berkeley, Columbia medicine, Harvard fellowship)
- Members with commercial insurance may pay around $25 a month for the medication after any deductible
Where it loses points
- The membership is overhead, not a medication price: it covers visits, monitoring and coaching, and the FAQ says medication pricing is confirmed only after a provider consultation
- No self-pay drug price is published anywhere, so the cost of a month cannot be worked out before signing up
- The best case depends on commercial insurance coverage; without it the medication cost is unknown
- No compounded option is disclosed — the programme is brand-focused, and brand list prices are the dearest route to a GLP-1
- The states it can prescribe in are not published
