Graded #203 · C
Strengths
- Separate programs for women (Joi) and men (Blokes) — most GLP-1 telehealth is gender-agnostic
- Trustpilot 4.6/5 from 1,254+ reviews — among the strongest review signals in the category
- Monthly price includes medication, dosing support, clinician consults, and health coaching
- Integrated hormone + GLP-1 programs help patients on testosterone or perimenopausal protocols
- First-month discount ($99 sema / $149 tirz) lowers the barrier to trying GLP-1s
Where it loses points
- Billed quarterly — a 3-month commitment up front, not month-to-month
- Different pricing in NY and NJ — verify your state's cost before committing
- Per-state availability isn't listed; it's zip-code gated behind signup
- Months 2+ cost more ($199 sema / $299 tirz) than the headline intro price
- No FDA-approved Wegovy — compounded only on the GLP-1 side; Zepbound carries a separate visit fee
Graded #44 · C+
Strengths
- Pure GLP-1 specialist — not a multi-category telehealth platform
- All 50 states coverage with licensed clinicians
- Both compounded and brand-name options (Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound)
- Oral GLP-1 option (compounded dissolvable tablets) for needle-averse patients
- LegitScript certified
Where it loses points
- Compounded semaglutide at $179/mo is mid-range (not the cheapest)
- Brand-name options at near-retail pricing ($997-$1,086/mo)
