Telehealth provider comparison — who's legit?

With so many telehealth providers offering GLP-1s now, I wanted to share my research. I compared 5 providers on: pricing, medication sourcing, doctor involvement, and customer reviews. Summary:

  • Provider A: $299/mo, uses licensed compounding pharmacy, MD consult included, 4.5/5 reviews
  • Provider B: $249/mo, pharmacy unclear, NP consult, 3.8/5 reviews
  • Provider C: $399/mo, 503B compounding facility, MD + dietitian, 4.7/5 reviews

My take: cheaper isn't always better. Verify the pharmacy is licensed and ask about their compounding process.

I went with Provider C and have been very happy. The dietitian support is genuinely helpful, not just a checkbox. The 503B facility gives me confidence in sterility.

Important point: 503A vs 503B matters. 503B facilities have higher oversight and are better for injectables. Always ask which type the provider uses.
