GOAL.MD

Shoppers who want a named physician-led practice with one flat compounded price at every dose and no auto-billing.

Reasons to consider it

  • Named Chief Physician (Dr. Michael Mimlitz, MD) rather than an anonymous provider network
  • One flat price at every dose and no auto-billing: you reorder when you are ready
  • Brand Ozempic, Wegovy and Zepbound are available through a $95 prescription-forwarding service, plus a semaglutide micro-dose program from $197/mo

What to weigh up

  • The $99 and $159 'from' prices need a 12-month plan paid up front ($1,188 and $1,908); month to month is $179 and $249
  • No named compounding pharmacy — only generic '503A & 503B licensed U.S. pharmacies' language
  • Brand-name medication is paid for separately through LillyDirect, NovoCare or TrumpRx, on top of the $95 forwarding fee

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