Florida Weight Loss MD
46/100Where the value is
- Named medical director with strong credentials (board-certified bariatric surgeon, 15+ years)
- Statewide Florida coverage across South, Central, and North Florida
- Financing available via Cherry (0% APR options)
The tradeoffs
- No pricing disclosed anywhere on the site -- must call or email to get a quote
- No LegitScript certification badge found on the pages checked
Framework
45/100Where the value is
- The compounding pharmacy partner is named, which most of this field does not do
- Treatment selection is doctor-guided rather than a fixed product menu
- US-licensed clinicians and a 503A pharmacy pathway
The tradeoffs
- No monthly medication price is published: the tirzepatide and semaglutide pages carry no price at all, and the homepage advertises a per-week figure for 'GLP-1s' generally rather than a rate for either drug
- The only drug-specific prices anywhere on the site sit on a legacy page — semaglutide at $349 per three months and tirzepatide at $549 per three months
