What stands out

  • Three tiers published with an eight-fold spread between the cheapest and most expensive, without a clear on-page explanation of what separates them.
  • The page did not state whether medication is included in any tier, or whether it is FDA-approved or compounded.

Questions to ask before you pay

These are things we could not settle from published pages, or that we think are easy to misread. Get answers in writing.

  • Establish what separates the $49, $249 and $399 tiers before choosing.
  • Ask whether medication is included and whether it is FDA-approved or compounded.

Limitations

  • Tier contents not explained.
  • Medication inclusion and type not stated.
