The Index scorecard
New Wave Health scored on our six Cost-Efficiency Index factors. See the methodology.
Where the value is
- Says pricing is flat, with no surprise fees and no surcharge when your dose changes
- Each plan comes with structured check-ins, a whole-health plan covering diet and movement, and direct messaging with your provider
- Offers semaglutide, tirzepatide and a lower-dose GLP-1 microdose program
- You can cancel the subscription anytime up to 48 hours before the next monthly charge, with an email reminder 5 to 7 days before each charge
- A local Virginia Beach team with a published phone number
The tradeoffs
- No program shows a price; the only figure is "plans from $139/mo", which isn't tied to a specific medication
- Doesn't say which states it serves beyond "Virginia and beyond"
- The pharmacy and the medical group are not named
- No refunds once medication has been dispensed, and a prescription order can only be canceled within 24 hours
- The homepage's "1,743+ patients supported" and "4.9/5" figures carry no source
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved products

Collective sells compounded semaglutide at $59 and tirzepatide at $69 a month, both genuinely medication prices, on top of a $199 annual membership that is required, auto-renewing and not refundable.
