QuickMD
44/100Where the value is
- Same-day, described as 365-day-a-year visit availability
- Flat, published $99 consultation fee — more upfront than many competitors' 'complete the intake to see any number' model
- Prescribes brand-name GLP-1s (Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro) rather than only compounded alternatives
The tradeoffs
- The $99 headline is a visit/consultation fee only — the dedicated weight-loss pricing page renders as a non-crawlable image, so the real all-in monthly cost could not be confirmed
- Not available in Louisiana for weight-loss consultations
Valhalla Vitality
44/100Where the value is
- LegitScript badge displayed
- Claims 50-state nationwide coverage with U.S.-licensed medical providers
- References verified, U.S.-licensed 503A pharmacies (though unnamed)
The tradeoffs
- Every GLP-1 product page gates its actual price behind account creation ('Sign in to view pricing & details'), directly contradicting the site's own 'transparent price' marketing language
- No dollar figure could be verified anywhere on the public site without providing personal information to a signup form
