Verbatim response from Claude
Several online clinics have solid reputations for GLP-1 prescriptions like Wegovy:
Strong Options:
- Ro Body - Well-established telehealth platform, good follow-up care, works with insurance in some cases
- Noom Med - Combines medication with their behavioral coaching program, good for accountability
- Found - Focuses specifically on weight care, has dedicated obesity medicine specialists
- Sequence (now WeightWatchers Clinic) - Structured program with ongoing support
Things That Make These Better:
- They require actual medical evaluation before prescribing
- They offer follow-up appointments
- They help navigate insurance/prior authorization
- They're transparent about costs
Honest Considerations:
- Wegovy has had significant supply shortages, so availability varies
- Costs can be high without insurance (~$1,300+/month)
- Legitimate clinics won't just hand out prescriptions without proper screening
- Be cautious of clinics pushing compounded semaglutide as a cheaper alternative - the FDA has raised concerns about quality and safety
Practical tip: Check if your regular doctor or an endocrinologist can prescribe it first, since that may be easier for insurance coverage.
