TOM Weight Loss
62/100Where the value is
- Named, credentialed prescriber (Dr. Tran Le, MD, DABOM, NPI 1194212258) rather than an anonymous provider pool
- Flat pricing regardless of dose within a plan — no upcharge as you titrate up to 2.4mg or 15mg/week
- A genuine Medicare-eligible copay path ($50/month) is published, unusual among compounded-GLP-1 telehealth sites
The tradeoffs
- Only available in Texas and Utah — not a national provider despite the polished, generic-looking site
- The site lists a separate 'à la carte' $100/mo price that is medication-only with the doctor visit billed apart — a naive read could mistake this for a $100 all-in equivalent to the $199 Basic plan
RNK Health
59/100Where the value is
- One monthly price covers the medication, the physician consultation and prescription, syringes and wipes, and shipping, with no separate membership or visit fee
- Month to month: you can cancel, pause or skip from your account, and it emails the upcoming amount 7 days before each renewal
- Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, with NAD+, sermorelin, B12 and naltrexone available on the same account
The tradeoffs
- Both prices are "from" figures and the pages don't say what a higher dose costs, so confirm the price for your dose at checkout
- Fees are non-refundable once you submit the intake, unless a provider finds you ineligible or the medication arrives damaged or wrong
