The Virtual NP
55/100Where the value is
- Prescribes FDA-approved branded medications (Wegovy/Zepbound) rather than compounded versions
- Named clinical founder (Sandra Jordan, MSN, APRN, FNP-C)
- Low, transparent provider fee ($99/visit or $75/month membership)
The tradeoffs
- No all-in monthly cost available -- medication price is separate and varies by pharmacy/insurance
- Narrow 6-state footprint (FL, NY, AZ, NV, NM, KS)
Evergreen Telehealth
55/100Where the value is
- Its weight-loss program, Evergreen Lean, is open: a short assessment in its app or on the web leads to a full medical review
- Names its clinical partner, NVP Medical Group, and the pharmacist who leads its education program
- Dosing is adjusted by a clinician as you progress, with one care team from prescription to follow-up
The tradeoffs
- No GLP-1 price is published; you only see what a plan costs at checkout after the assessment
- Fees for a paid plan term are non-refundable, and a cancellation has to arrive at least seven days before renewal or you are charged for the refill already dispensed
