QuickMD Review: Price, Pros & Cons

QuickMD charges $99 for a weight loss consultation with a licensed doctor. That's the visit only. It doesn't include the medication, which you buy from your own pharmacy at whatever your pharmacy and prescription benefits charge. QuickMD says the drug's cost depends on which one is prescribed, the dose and how often you take it, and that higher doses later on can raise it.

There's no membership and no long-term commitment, and you don't need insurance for the visit. QuickMD suggests checking with your insurer before the appointment, since coverage for these drugs often depends on what they're prescribed for. Established patients may qualify for 90-day prescriptions.

QuickMD's doctors prescribe brand-name GLP-1s: Mounjaro, Wegovy, Ozempic and Zepbound, plus Rybelsus, a daily semaglutide tablet. Compounded versions aren't on its list. Your doctor sends the prescription to the pharmacy you choose. During the visit, the doctor talks through your target weight, health concerns and budget to help pick a drug. If a pharmacist won't fill it, QuickMD runs a pharmacy support line the pharmacist can call.

QuickMD started in 2019 and is best known for addiction treatment, with weight loss, hormone therapy, mental health and urgent care added since. You book a phone or video visit in its app or on its website, often on the same day, seven days a week. You choose your doctor, upload your ID and finish the intake forms before the visit. The doctor must be licensed in the state you're in when you're seen. Weight-loss consultations exclude Louisiana; check local availability when booking.

QuickMD works mostly in account credits rather than refunds:

• Cancel at least one hour before the visit and the full $99 goes back to your account as a credit. Miss it or cancel later, and $35 is taken out of that credit.
• A completed visit isn't refunded, even if the doctor decides not to prescribe the drug you wanted.
• Credits last 12 months. You can ask for a credit to be refunded to your card within 30 days of the original charge.
• Booking in the wrong state costs a $35 fee to reschedule.
• A chargeback on a completed visit can add a $25 fee.
