Pros

  • Flat, published consultation pricing: $99 for a weight-loss consultation with a licensed doctor who can prescribe a GLP-1 if appropriate
  • No membership, no insurance requirement and no surprise fees, stated plainly on the pricing page
  • Prices for every other service line are published on the same page - $99 addiction treatment, $99 mental health, $79 menopause hormone therapy, $75 urgent care, $19 counselling - which is unusually transparent
  • Available in 42 states, seven days a week, with same-day visits
  • The prescription goes to the pharmacy of your choice, so you can shop the medication price separately instead of being locked into one supplier
  • An established multi-service telehealth practice rather than a single-product weight-loss funnel
  • Explicit about what it will not do - it publishes the list of medications it cannot prescribe, which most competitors leave vague

Cons

  • The $99 buys the consultation only. QuickMD states plainly that the cost of medication depends on your pharmacy and your prescription drug coverage, so your total monthly cost is unknown until you fill the script
  • QuickMD does not accept health insurance for the visit itself
  • Weight-loss consultations are not available in Louisiana
  • 42 states is short of nationwide, and the missing eight are not listed on the pricing page
  • No medication is dispensed or shipped, so there is no cold-chain handling, no bundled pricing and no delivery guarantee
  • No dedicated coaching, dietitian or app-based programme wrapped around the prescription

Pros

  • Brand-name Wegovy and Ozempic bought direct from the manufacturer's own pharmacy, so there is no question about what is in the vial or the bottle
  • Published self-pay pricing: $149 per month for the Wegovy or Ozempic pill, and $199 per month for the pen
  • Free home delivery is included, and pharmacy pickup is also offered
  • The alternative to compounded semaglutide at a price that is now genuinely competitive with compounders
  • Patients with insurance may pay as little as $25 per month for up to 3 months under the published savings offer
  • If you do not already have a prescriber, NovoCare will connect you with one
  • Terms are published at WegovyTerms.com and NovoCarePharmacyTerms.com rather than hidden behind a signup flow

Cons

  • The $149 pill price is tied to specific doses: patients pay $149 for each month of 1.5 mg and 4 mg, and the 4 mg offer runs only until 31 August 2026, after which 4 mg is $199 per month
  • Novo Nordisk explicitly reserves the right to modify or cancel the programme at any time, so today's price is not a commitment
  • Eligibility and restrictions apply to the savings offers and are not spelled out on the pharmacy page itself
  • This is a dispensing pharmacy, not a weight-loss programme - there is no coaching, no dietitian and no app
  • Only Novo Nordisk products. If tirzepatide turns out to suit you better, you are in the wrong shop
  • No phone number or support email is published on the pharmacy page
  • The pharmacy operates as CoAssist Pharmacy d/b/a NovoCare Pharmacy, which is not obvious from the branding
