Graded #64 · C
Strengths
- LegitScript certified — passes accreditation standards recognized by Google and Visa for online telehealth
- Compounded all-in pricing: semaglutide $199/mo and tirzepatide $299/mo includes medication, provider care, and shipping
- Brand-name options (Wegovy pill, injectable sema, Zepbound) available for eligible patients, potentially $0-$25/mo with insurance
- Nationwide (49 states + DC); no appointment required, licensed provider reviews intake within 12 hours
- 0% financing through Credee from $79/month (12-24 months) plus Affirm and Klarna with ~97% approval rate
Where it loses points
- No labs or clinical monitoring disclosed — blood work requirements not mentioned anywhere on site
- Leadership team and medical director not identified on site — no named prescribers or company founders published
- Brand-name prescriptions add a $44/month provider fee on top of medication cost, raising total price to $193-$343/mo
- No coaching, dietitian, or behavioral support at any tier — medication and async provider access only
- 30-day satisfaction guarantee covers evaluation fee only; medication costs explicitly non-refundable
Graded #399 · C
Strengths
- Prescribes real brand-name GLP-1 (e.g. Ozempic/Wegovy), not compounded — appealing if you specifically want FDA-approved branded medication
- Simple $120 telehealth evaluation with a licensed doctor; no insurance hassle and no prior authorization
- You fill the prescription at your own regular pharmacy rather than waiting on a mail-order compounding pharmacy
- Also a general telehealth clinic (urgent care, chronic-condition management) if you want broader care
Where it loses points
- Only Texas and North Carolina are confirmed — not available nationwide
- The $120 is an evaluation fee; the brand-name medication is billed separately at your pharmacy and can be expensive without insurance
- Small practice (about 500 patients) with limited public detail on its clinicians and program
- No compounded or lower-cost medication option, and no medication pricing is published
Also worth a look
