Concierge MD LA is a concierge medicine company (part of the Drip Hydration corporate family) selling compounded semaglutide ($199/mo) and tirzepatide ($299/mo) alongside brand-name Ozempic at $1,999/month.

Best for: Shoppers who want a named, credentialed medical leadership team and are comfortable with a 4-month minimum commitment despite the 'monthly' billing label.

What Concierge MD LA does well

  • Named, credentialed leadership: CEO/Founder Dr. Abe Malkin, MD MBA (Family Medicine), Co-Founder/CMO Dr. Neal Kumar, MD MBA (Dermatology), and Medical Director Dr. Jon Snipes, MD
  • Now claims genuinely nationwide coverage across 50+ cities, broader than the previously documented LA/NY/25-city limitation
  • Flat pricing regardless of prescribed dose simplifies budgeting once enrolled
  • Part of an established concierge-medicine corporate family (Drip Hydration and affiliates) with in-home and virtual service infrastructure beyond just GLP-1s

Why readers look for an alternative

  • Both compounded subscriptions require at least four monthly payments
  • The FAQ describes semaglutide shipments every ninety days and tirzepatide every sixty days, despite monthly billing; confirm delivery timing
  • Brand options list $1,999 monthly, while an insurance consent separately mentions $650 Zepbound and a $250 cancellation fee; obtain a written quote for your pathway
  • The compounding pharmacies are not named
  • The intake lists investigational retatrutide; it is not an FDA-approved treatment
