October 2026

TeleSlim Clinic is a Chicago-based obesity-medicine practice (Drs. Kudsi, Alatassi, Rosenfeld) that treats patients online in six states on a doctor-care subscription, with compounded or brand-name GLP-1 medication billed separately.

Best for: Patients in its states who want a named physician team, and who will ask how the membership fee works before joining.

What TeleSlim Clinic does well

  • Three named, board-certified obesity medicine physicians
  • Named compounding pharmacy (Rush Pharmacy, Oviedo, FL)
  • Prescribes compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide as well as brand-name Wegovy, Zepbound, the Wegovy pill and Foundayo
  • Subscription packages priced up front: $99/month, $269 for 3 months, $499 for 6 months, $899 a year
  • A free 10-minute call with a doctor before you pay

Why readers look for an alternative

  • No medication price is published; the subscription doesn't include medication, which TeleSlim says can run $10 to $900 a month
  • Its own pages disagree on the subscription price ($99/month on the homepage, from $149/month in the FAQ)
  • No LegitScript certification
  • Serves only six states (IL, TX, CO, MI, PA, AZ)
