Loop Health vs Rivas Medical Weight Loss
The verdict
Loop Health takes it — 64.2/100 to 55.6/100.
Loop Health grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Loop Health is a US telehealth membership platform offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide under its Loop Lean program, alongside peptides, NAD+, sermorelin, coaching, and bloodwork.

Graded #244 · C
Strengths
- Multi-product wellness platform — GLP-1 plus peptides, NAD+, coaching, bloodwork
- Low membership entry point ($79/mo)
- Annual plan includes monthly 'research credit' toward compounds
- Explicit compounded-drug FDA disclaimer on-site
Where it loses points
- The medication price is on top of a $1,500-a-year membership, annual-plan only, which the terms confirm is separate from compound and medication costs
- Everything sold here is microdosed — the banner over both products reads 'MICRODOSED GLP-1', which is not a labelled therapeutic dose
- The prices exist only after the page's JavaScript runs; the served HTML body is empty
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
Graded #437 · C
Strengths
- Physician-founded (Paul Rivas MD) with 15 clinics plus telehealth
- Flat price for any dose; weekly provider visits included in every payment
- Offers both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide
Where it loses points
- Expensive: about $498/mo for semaglutide and $715/mo for tirzepatide (billed weekly)
- Only available in Maryland, Virginia, and Florida
- Weekly-visit concierge model requires more frequent engagement than mail-order
