Graded #100 · C
Strengths
- Broad GLP-1 menu: semaglutide, tirzepatide and liraglutide (branded or compounded)
- LegitScript verified; care provided by HLY Medical Group PA
- Semaglutide from ~$199/mo with a $100-off first-month promotion
- Medications ship from licensed, state-regulated pharmacies with free shipping
- Available in almost every state (excluding Alaska and DC)
Where it loses points
- Compounded medications are not FDA-evaluated for safety, efficacy or quality
- Cash-pay; FSA/HSA acceptance not stated on the platform
- Some pricing routes through LillyDirect rather than Heally directly
- Specific list of supported states not consolidated for easy review
Graded #173 · C
Strengths
- Lab panels are core: initial comprehensive labs + 6–12 week follow-up + ongoing every 6 months — rare among GLP-1 providers
- Dedicated Health Coach paired with each client alongside partnered licensed physician as standard Proactive Care Team
- All 50 US states served; 100% telehealth with routine physician check-ins every 6 months built into the program
- Human optimization framing attracts pragmatic patients; partnered physicians selected for data-driven, high-leverage mindset
- No set subscription plan — custom protocol built around client health goals with option to cancel anytime
Where it loses points
- Pricing fully gated — no published rates; intake assessment required before quotes, limiting upfront comparison shopping
- Annual in-person physical required from own PCP or urgent care (every 12 months) — not provided by Marek Health
- No LegitScript certification found; platform explicitly disclaims being a healthcare clinic, which reduces regulatory trust signals
- Weight loss is one of many services alongside TRT, hair, brain focus, sexual health — not a dedicated GLP-1 platform
- Compounded vs. brand medication details not disclosed publicly — medication type determined post-intake with partnered physician
