Wellspring Longevity Clinic
40/100Where the value is
- Compounded GLP-1 (semaglutide) and GLP-1/GIP (tirzepatide) from a longevity-focused clinic
- Also offers NAD+, peptide therapy, and GLP-1 microdosing
- Transparent that medication is compounded by a licensed third-party pharmacy
The tradeoffs
- Pricing not published on the site — gated behind the intake
- Euphemistic marketing ('Personalized GLP-1', 'appetite harmony') rather than naming semaglutide/tirzepatide plainly
Actin
39/100Where the value is
- Multi-condition platform (weight, hormones, sexual wellness, hair) under one account
- States it uses 'state-licensed compounding pharmacies' with third-party potency/sterility testing
- Clean, modern telehealth positioning
The tradeoffs
- No semaglutide or tirzepatide pricing published anywhere accessible
- No named compounding pharmacy partner despite claiming to use one
