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
Graded #209 · C
Strengths
- Corporate entity disclosed (TeleHealth Med, Inc.) — clearer accountability than undisclosed competitors
- Publishes the FDA compounded-medication disclaimer
- 503A pharmacy designation stated in the FAQ
- Honest disclosure that testimonials are compensated and results aren't independently verified
- Both injectable and sublingual forms offered
Where it loses points
- Specific 503A pharmacy partner not named
- LegitScript ID number not shown in text — only a verification link
- Full states-served list not disclosed
- Named medical director not disclosed
- Dose tiers beyond the $147/mo starting price not published
