Visit Medical Health InstituteBodi Envi
Cost-first shoppers who want flat all-dose compounded pricing from a clinic with a named, checkable founder history.
Visit Bodi EnviThe verdict
Medical Health Institute takes it, leading the Cost-Efficiency Index 68 to 67. Medical Health Institute is a multi-service telehealth provider (weight loss, testosterone therapy, peptide therapy) advertising GLP-1 weight loss 'starting at $100/mo' a figure the company itself footnotes as contingent. Bodi Envi still earns a C — Cost-first shoppers who want flat all-dose compounded pricing from a clinic with a named, checkable founder history.

Medical Health Institute
68/100Where the value is
- Advertises a competitively low $100/mo entry price for GLP-1 weight loss
- Offers multiple service lines (weight loss, TRT, peptide therapy) under one provider
- LegitScript and HIPAA-compliance badges both displayed on the homepage
The tradeoffs
- The $100/mo headline price carries the company's own asterisk — '*Based on pharmacy availability' — meaning it is explicitly not a guaranteed rate before intake
- No dose tier or even which drug (semaglutide vs. tirzepatide) the $100 figure applies to is disclosed anywhere public
Bodi Envi
67/100Where the value is
- Real, named founders (Ashley and Shaun Padgett) with a verifiable brick-and-mortar practice (Padgett Medical Center, Florida) and a large public review history
- Flat, transparent per-drug pricing with no doses-based escalation shown on the pricing cards
- No consultation or membership fee visible on the pricing page
The tradeoffs
- A prior automated pull of this site reported different (lower, promo-flavored) prices than what the page visually shows today — pricing pages on this domain appear to change, so re-verify at time of use
- States served are not explicitly listed on the pages read this session
Assume any provider we list may compensate us — we may earn a commission, at no cost to you. It never changes the Cost-Efficiency Index.
