Graded #191 · C
Strengths
- Offers compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide as both weekly injections and oral tablets
- Transparent, published pricing with month-to-month, quarterly, and 6-month plans and no membership fee
- Multi-month plans cut the per-month cost sharply (semaglutide as low as $99/mo, tirzepatide as low as $133/mo)
- Advertises a $50-off code (LOOSE50) and covers weight loss plus hair, sexual-wellness, and longevity care
- Also lists a retatrutide option and custom dosing plans for higher needs
Where it loses points
- Prescribing medical group and compounding pharmacy are not named on the site
- States of operation are not published; confirm eligibility during intake
- Says it is 'LegitScript certified' but no verifiable seal is shown, so the claim is unconfirmed
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
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
