Midi Health
57/100Where the value is
- No membership fee — the site states outright 'You only pay for your care and your medications'
- Medication price already includes shipping and supplies, so the listed number is closer to the true out-of-pocket cost than sites that add fees later
- Dose-tiered pricing is published transparently: compounded semaglutide $165.90-$355.00/mo, compounded tirzepatide $210.00-$434.00/mo depending on dose
The tradeoffs
- The advertised 'Weekly doses start at $34' teaser on the weight-management overview page refers to microdosing, not the standard program — the real 4-week program cost starts at $165.90/mo, over 4x the teaser figure
- Weight care is not Midi's core identity — it's layered onto a menopause/HRT platform, so patients whose only need is GLP-1 may find a weight-loss-only provider more streamlined
TeleHealth Weight Solutions
57/100Where the value is
- Serves a broad footprint (43 states claimed)
- Both semaglutide and tirzepatide offered
- Refill flexibility across multiple vial sizes
The tradeoffs
- Headline '$325/mo' and '$375/mo' are lump-sum course prices divided by weeks, not real monthly rates
- No compounding pharmacy named, only 'accredited compounding pharmacies'
