Wholesome Clinic
68/100Where the value is
- Real, named, dual-certified prescriber (Stephanie Ukoha, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC)
- Transparent dose-tiered pricing for both injectable and oral GLP-1 options, with no evident promo bait-and-switch
- Oral ODT alternatives offer a notably cheaper entry point ($109/mo semaglutide, $249/mo tirzepatide)
The tradeoffs
- Weight loss is a secondary service line to the clinic's core psychiatry focus, not its specialty
- Only licensed in seven states -- far narrower than most national GLP-1 telehealth competitors
YOURx Health
68/100Where the value is
- Real per-product pricing published on individual treatment pages, not just a vague 'starting at' banner: $169/mo semaglutide injection, $189/mo tirzepatide injection, $159/mo and $179/mo oral-tablet equivalents
- Listed price is genuinely all-in — physician consultation, supplies, and shipping are bundled with no separate visit or shipping fee shown
- Both injectable and oral (RDT tablet) formulations offered for each drug, a needle-free option many peer sites lack
The tradeoffs
- Every price is explicitly labeled 'New Patient' with no disclosure of what it becomes afterward — the true ongoing cost is unknown
- The homepage's state-coverage counter literally reads 'Coverage 0 States,' a broken/placeholder metric that leaves real coverage unverifiable from the site itself
