The verdict

RxSpan MD takes it — 86.8/100 to 63.4/100.

RxSpan MD grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. A physician-led telehealth under board-certified founder Dr. John Diaz with a broad GLP-1 menu — compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide by injection or oral capsule, plus a brand-name lane and microdosing — on transparent all-inclusive pricing to all 50 states.

We may earn a commission if you start care through some of these links, at no extra cost to you. It never moves the WeighScore, which is the weighted average of the six factors shown for every provider, and what we write about a provider is the same either way. See our disclosure.

RxSpan MD

Graded #4 · B

Strengths

  • Available in all 50 states
  • Transparent, all-inclusive published pricing — consult, medication, supplies, shipping and support, cancel anytime, from ~$194/mo compounded semaglutide on an annual plan
  • Both injectable and a real oral (capsule) route, plus compounded and an advertised brand-name lane
  • Physician-led by a named, board-certified founder (Dr. John Diaz) with 24/7 messaging and coaching

Where it loses points

  • Compounded semaglutide/tirzepatide are not FDA-approved (not the same as Wegovy/Ozempic/Zepbound)
  • Published pricing is for the compounded line — brand-name pricing isn’t itemized
  • A prescription isn’t guaranteed — a provider reviews eligibility after checkout
StackMD

Graded #259 · C

Strengths

  • Publishes an exact price for every dose strength rather than a single 'from' figure — semaglutide $125-$225, tirzepatide $199-$449
  • Names both its legal entity (Medical 360 HC PLLC) and its prescribing telehealth partner, SamaritanMD
  • No membership or platform fee — the medication price is the whole price
  • States plainly that its compounded medications are 'not FDA-approved and have not been evaluated by the FDA for safety, efficacy, or quality'
  • Telehealth offered in all 50 states per its terms, with free discreet shipping and FSA/HSA eligibility

Where it loses points

  • All sales are final — 'No refunds are issued except as described below', and dispensed medication cannot be returned
  • Compounding pharmacies are never named, only 'a licensed third-party pharmacy'
  • Price rises steeply with dose: tirzepatide runs $199 at 5mg to $449 at 30mg
  • Billing and refunds are handled by SamaritanMD — StackMD 'has no authority to issue refunds' on its behalf
  • Terms impose binding arbitration in New York and waive jury trial and class-action participation

Also worth a look
