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

Pros

  • The programme lives on as WeightWatchers Clinic, which is reviewed separately on this site
  • Its original model - GLP-1 medication paired with registered dietitian support and behaviour change - carried over into the WeightWatchers offering
  • Members transitioned into a larger organisation with an established insurance and coverage operation

Cons

  • You cannot sign up for Sequence. It no longer exists as a standalone service and both former domains are offline - go to WeightWatchers Clinic instead
  • Historic pricing and plan details from the Sequence era no longer apply, so any figures you find elsewhere for it are out of date
  • Because the brand was absorbed, older reviews and testimonials for Sequence describe a service that has since changed hands and structure
