What stands out

• The practice's original business is medical marijuana certification; weight management is a later addition running on the same telehealth infrastructure.
• Names its founder, its founding year and individual prescribing physicians with their qualifications — considerably more corporate transparency than most of this directory.
• Publishes the second-month price alongside the first, so the $225 introductory figure is not presented as the ongoing rate.
• States its pharmacies are PCAB-accredited and claims 99%-plus purity and potency. PCAB accreditation is checkable; the purity figure is a claim you would want a certificate of analysis to support.
• Offers to send the prescription to your own local pharmacy, which most compounded sellers will not do.
• Publishes the standard BMI-based candidate criteria rather than leaving eligibility unstated.
• Availability is limited to twelve or more states, determined by where its clinicians are licensed.

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.

• Tirzepatide at $450 a month is at the upper end of the compounded market. What does that buy that a $200-a-month competitor does not?
• Can you see the certificate of analysis supporting the 99%-plus purity and potency claim for your batch?
• Which PCAB-accredited pharmacy fills your prescription?
• Is your state among the twelve or more served?
• No refund or cancellation policy is published. What applies if you stop after the first month?
• Compounded medication is not FDA-approved. Do you understand what that means for oversight and recourse?
