Graded #422 · C
Strengths
- Physician DO + NP team (Dr. Brandon Shaw, D.O. and Andrea Farris, N.P.) provides strong clinical oversight
- Compounded meds from LegitScript-certified pharmacies — higher supply-chain trust than many small practices
- Tiered dosing structure (Level 1 / Level 2) with B12 added to reduce nausea side effects
- Both telehealth and in-person options available (AZ Phoenix and CA Novato offices)
- Partnered mobile IV services available for enhanced nausea management and hydration support
Where it loses points
- Pricing not disclosed publicly — must contact clinic for quotes, limiting upfront comparison shopping
- Only AZ and CA confirmed — very limited geographic reach, excludes nearly all of the US
- No LegitScript certification for the clinic itself (only pharmacy partners are LegitScript-certified)
- Small practice with limited online presence and no published patient reviews or outcomes data
- No labs, coaching, or monitoring protocols disclosed on the site
Graded #288 · C
Strengths
- Brand Wegovy/Zepbound AND compounded sema available; prescribing based on medical history and coverage
- 100% virtual — weekly appointments with board-certified MDs from home; no travel required
- Remote Patient Monitoring Starter Box: biometric scale + blood pressure cuff sync to care team in real time
- In-network with most commercial insurance plans; may cover visits and monitoring equipment
- Physician-led by Dr. Peter Wilbanks MD (30-yr OB/GYN, VCU) and Dr. Michael Perini MD (ABIM board-certified)
Where it loses points
- No public cash pricing; cost entirely depends on insurance coverage — not viable for uninsured patients
- Telehealth available only in Virginia and Maryland; no national reach confirmed
- No Medicare or Medicaid accepted; limited to commercial insurance plans only
- No LegitScript certification found; compounded availability and specific pricing undisclosed on site
- Tirzepatide (Zepbound/Mounjaro) availability less prominent in MD pages; semaglutide is primary focus
