TOM Weight Loss

Texas or Utah residents who want the doctor visit and medication in one bundled monthly price.

Reasons to consider it

  • 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
  • The $199 and $249 plans are all-in: doctor care and medication in one monthly price

What to weigh up

  • Only available in Texas and Utah — not a national provider despite the polished, generic-looking site
  • Brand-name drugs need the separate $100-a-month à la carte membership, with the medication paid to the pharmacy on top
  • No single compounding pharmacy named; à la carte fills are priced at several example pharmacies

Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. Understand the medication options.

Nova

Readers who want the membership inside the quoted price rather than added to it, and who want a daily sublingual option beside the injection.

Reasons to consider it

  • Quotes one all-in figure that already contains the $50 monthly membership, the medication and refrigerated shipping, so the membership is not a surprise at checkout
  • Names a medical director and a nurse practitioner with credentials, training and residency detail
  • Prices a daily sublingual route for both molecules alongside the weekly injections

What to weigh up

  • Every figure is a "From" price that depends on the dose your provider prescribes, and no maintenance-dose price is published
  • No compounding pharmacy and no medical group is named
  • "You're only charged if prescribed" sits against a refund policy making membership and consultation fees non-refundable once the clinical review is done, even when a provider declines

Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. Understand the medication options.
