Graded #405 · C
Strengths
- Requires a synchronous live audio-video visit with a New York-licensed clinician — prescriptions are never issued from the intake form alone
- Assessment and clinician review are free; you only pay if treatment is prescribed and you choose to proceed
- Names its legal entity (ThisGen, LLC) and specifies New York governing law in its terms
- No long-term contracts — plans can be paused or stopped
- The same clinician follows your care, with ongoing secure messaging between visits
Where it loses points
- Publishes no prices at all — 'We don't list flat prices on the website'; cost is disclosed only after a clinician reviews your assessment
- Serves New York only — 'we currently operate exclusively for patients located in New York'
- Dispensing pharmacies are not named, only described as 'licensed U.S. pharmacies'
- Does not state whether its semaglutide and tirzepatide are compounded or brand-name
- Does not bill insurance; verifying any reimbursement is the patient's responsibility
Graded #229 · C
Strengths
- Transparent flat monthly pricing published on-site — consult, medication, and shipping all included
- Broad menu: compounded semaglutide/tirzepatide, compounded oral capsules from $199/mo, plus brand-name Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro and Rybelsus
- LegitScript-certified (seal #43281221)
- Flat fee with no upcharge as your dose increases
- Compounded oral GLP-1 capsules available for needle-free dosing
Where it loses points
- Compounded injectable pricing ($350 semaglutide / $450 tirzepatide) runs above the lowest-cost telehealth options
- No compounding pharmacy partner named on the site
- No named medical director or prescribing clinicians
- State availability not published — only a nationwide virtual-care claim
- Small, locally-rooted operation with a limited public track record
