Telehealth Services That Prescribe Wegovy
Here are some well-known options:
Dedicated Weight Loss Platforms
- Ro Body – Popular telehealth platform with licensed providers who can prescribe GLP-1 medications including Wegovy, with pharmacy delivery
- Calibrate – Focuses on metabolic health with doctor consultations and can prescribe Wegovy where appropriate
- Found – Offers personalized weight care plans with prescribing physicians
General Telehealth Platforms
- Hims & Hers – Has expanded into weight management and can prescribe GLP-1s including Wegovy
- Teladoc – Broad telehealth service with providers who handle weight management prescriptions
- Sesame – Connects you with doctors who can evaluate and prescribe, often at lower costs
Important Things to Know
- Availability varies by state due to prescribing laws
- Insurance coverage matters – Wegovy is expensive (~$1,300+/month without coverage), so check your plan first
- Shortages have been an issue – some services may substitute semaglutide compounded versions instead
- Medical evaluation is required – you'll need to qualify based on BMI and health criteria
I'd recommend starting with Ro Body or Hims & Hers for a straightforward experience, but always verify current availability and pricing directly with the service.
