The verdict

StackMD takes it — 63.4/100 to 60.8/100.

StackMD grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. StackMD is a New York telehealth platform (Medical 360 HC PLLC) selling compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, both formulated with B12 and glycine, alongside NAD+, sermorelin and other longevity peptides.

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.

StackMD

Graded #255 · 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
The Virtual NP

Graded #314 · C

Strengths

  • FDA-approved branded Zepbound and Wegovy only, no compounded
  • Transparent fees: 99 visit or 75 per month membership
  • HSA/FSA accepted and prior authorization assistance offered
  • NP-led with same or next-day booking and home shipping

Where it loses points

  • Branded only, so medication cost is high and billed separately
  • Limited to seven states
  • No compounded lower-cost GLP-1 alternative
  • Single-provider practice may limit scale and hours

Also worth a look
