Short answer: several legitimate U.S. telehealth companies will evaluate you for GLP‑1 treatment (including Wegovy/semaglutide) and either ship the medication or e‑prescribe it to a mail‑order pharmacy that delivers to your door. Which ones actually prescribe Wegovy can vary by state, supply, insurance and the company’s formulary, but these are the common, reputable options to check:
-
PlushCare — national virtual primary‑care/urgent care. Providers will evaluate for GLP‑1 therapy and can e‑prescribe to a mail‑order or specialty pharmacy for home delivery. Good for people who want primary‑care continuity plus medication management.
-
Hims & Hers (Hims / Hers) — consumer‑focused telehealth that offers weight‑loss programs and GLP‑1 prescriptions; friendly app experience and partner pharmacies for home shipping. Good if you want a simple, direct program and subscription billing.
-
Ro (Ro / Roman / Rory) — Ro’s weight‑management services connect you with clinicians who can prescribe GLP‑1s and work with partner pharmacies to deliver injectables. Known for integrated programs and care coordination.
-
Lemonaid Health — affordable, straightforward telehealth visits that can result in an e‑prescription for GLP‑1s and delivery from a mail‑order pharmacy. Often lower visit cost for straightforward prescribing.
-
SteadyMD — focuses on long‑term primary care and chronic medication management; useful if you want an ongoing doctor relationship to manage weight meds and monitoring. Can coordinate shipping through partner pharmacies.
-
One Medical (now part of Amazon Group) — primary‑care membership that can prescribe Wegovy and arrange pharmacy/home delivery; good for people who want office + virtual care blend.
Useful mail‑order/specialty pharmacies that will deliver Wegovy once you have a prescription:
- Alto Pharmacy, Capsule, CVS Specialty, Walgreens Specialty, OptumRx/Express Scripts specialty, Truepill. These pharmacies offer temperature‑controlled delivery and handle specialty prior auths.
A few important notes before you choose:
- Wegovy is brand‑name semaglutide and is expensive; many clinicians will consider insurance coverage and may prescribe other semaglutide products (Ozempic) or alternative GLP‑1s depending on availability and your insurance.
- Expect a virtual intake visit, possible lab work, and prior authorization from insurers — shipping may be delayed while those complete.
- Check that the telehealth service treats patients in your state (licensing varies).
- Avoid services that offer to ship controlled or injectable meds without a proper video/medical evaluation or that source drugs from overseas unknown suppliers.
