Liberty vs Livea
The verdict

Livea is a physician-supervised medical weight loss clinic founded in 2011 with 8 clinics in MN and WI, plus telehealth in MN, WI, Iowa, and Florida.

Graded #304 · C
Strengths
- Compounded GLP-1 sourced from FDA-registered 503B outsourcing facilities, a stricter standard than the 503A pharmacies many competitors use
- Transparent flat pricing: compounded semaglutide $199/mo (about $171/mo on a 3-month supply) and tirzepatide $299/mo
- Nationwide in all 50 states with free discreet shipping, 24/7 support, and FSA/HSA acceptance
- Multi-vertical menu beyond weight loss (low-dose microdosing, NAD+, sermorelin, metformin) for patients who want bundled wellness care
Where it loses points
- Does not name its specific compounding pharmacy partner, only that it is a 503B facility
- Tirzepatide at $299/mo is mid-market rather than the cheapest option among compounded providers
- Generic corporate branding (Liberty Health) with limited public detail on the operating entity
- Compounded medication only — no brand-name or insurance-covered GLP-1 path
Graded #115 · C
Strengths
- LegitScript certified; physician-owned Livea Medical PLLC; Medical Director Dr. Paul Olson, internal medicine/nephrology, 40 years experience
- Compounded sema from $99/mo and tirz from $199/mo — significantly cheaper than brand Ozempic/Wegovy ($1,000+/mo self-pay)
- Comprehensive program: InBody scans, registered dietitian nutrition counseling, health coaching, and regular provider check-ins included
- 15+ years established (founded 2011); 50,000+ clients served; voted Minnesota's Best Weight Loss Program 5 consecutive years
- Medications shipped to door; same-day consultations; in-person or telehealth; typically HSA/FSA eligible
Where it loses points
- Telehealth limited to 4 states only (MN, WI, IA, FL) — unavailable to most of the US; primarily a regional clinic network
- Pricing ambiguous: $69/mo program fee plus separate medication cost ($99/mo sema) may bring GLP-1 total to ~$168/mo
- Compounded tirzepatide availability uncertain — FDA announced shortage end in 2026; access subject to eligibility
- Labs (bloodwork) not explicitly included in any published program tier; confirmed at consultation only
- Strong MN/WI clinic focus; telehealth reach into IA and FL is newer and less established than core markets
