Medications

semaglutidetirzepatideliraglutide

Pros

✓Accepts insurance, which almost nothing else on this site does. Most in-network patients pay a copay of $30 or less for a visit
✓Membership is $19.99/month with the first month free, and there is no minimum commitment
✓Prescribes only FDA-approved medications - Zepbound, Wegovy, Saxenda, Contrave and Xenical - so no compounded product is involved
✓Care comes from board-certified primary care physicians rather than an asynchronous questionnaire review
✓A full refund is offered if the doctor is unable to treat you
✓Membership includes far more than weight care: 24/7 urgent care video visits, mental health support, discounted lab tests and free memberships for family
✓An in-app prescription discount card and HSA/FSA eligibility can reduce medication costs further
✓The site is candid that GLP-1s 'usually cost about $1000 per month out of pocket' and advises checking insurance coverage first, rather than hiding the real figure

Cons

✗The $19.99 membership buys access, not medication. Without insurance coverage the GLP-1 itself can run about $1,000 a month, which PlushCare states openly but which makes the headline price misleading if read as a treatment cost
✗Visits are charged on top of membership - $129 for an initial visit without in-network insurance
✗Trustpilot sits at 3.4 out of 5 across 2,735 reviews, the weakest score of any established provider we have reviewed here
✗Prescriptions are explicitly at the doctor's discretion, so paying for membership and a visit does not guarantee you leave with a GLP-1
✗This is a general telehealth service, so the weight-loss programme has less dedicated structure - no built-in coaching, food tracking or dose-titration support
✗Medication and lab costs are excluded from every advertised price, so your real monthly outlay depends entirely on your insurer
✗Contrave is offered as a $99 cash-pay alternative, but the cash cost of the GLP-1s themselves is not published
✗If you have no insurance and want a GLP-1, this route is likely to cost far more than the compounded providers listed elsewhere on this site

Medications

semaglutidetirzepatide

Pros

✓Flat pricing at every dose, stated plainly: "The Get Thin MD Program is $119 for personalized compounded Semaglutide (all dose levels) and $179 for personalized compounded Tirzepatide (all dose levels)"
✓"Same price, every dose. No hidden fees" - which removes the titration price trap that catches most compounded GLP-1 patients
✓Shorter commitments are also published rather than hidden: compounded semaglutide at $169/month on a 3-month plan and $199/month monthly, and compounded tirzepatide at $299/month monthly
✓Brand-name Ozempic and Zepbound are offered alongside the compounded options, so there is a route to an FDA-approved product
✓A published phone number, +1 888-220-0740, with nationwide availability
✓No insurance and no office visits needed, and eligibility is checked in about 90 seconds
✓A dietitian can be booked directly through the site
✓Adjacent services - NAD+, sermorelin, HRT, hair growth and a 103-point biomarker panel - for people who want more than a GLP-1

Cons

✗The medication is compounded and therefore not FDA-approved or reviewed for safety, effectiveness or quality
✗The $119 headline requires a 12-month plan, which is the longest lock-in of any provider on this site. Month-to-month is $199
✗Pricing is presented inconsistently: the plan cards show $169 and $199 for semaglutide while the programme copy quotes $119 and $179 as the flat rates, so establish which applies to your plan before you buy
✗"Spring Sale" and "You are saving $150 (at least) every month!" are permanent-looking urgency banners rather than genuine limited offers
✗The dispensing pharmacy is not named
✗The claim that patients "lose 9.6 pounds in their first 30 days" is footnoted but is a company figure, not a trial result
✗No insurance billing, and HSA/FSA acceptance is not stated
