Factor by factor
The six factors behind each Value Score. The orange bar marks the stronger side. See the methodology.
Ondra Health
The cheapest flat semaglutide sticker we track ($93) — LegitScript-certified, all 50 states, and it still offers brand-name access.
Why it's a deal
- Lowest disclosed flat semaglutide price in the roster ($93/mo) — no teaser step-up
- LegitScript-certified and available in all 50 states
- Offers FDA-approved brand-name access alongside compounded
- Tirzepatide is competitive too at $166/mo
The fine print
- Newer name with a shorter public track record than the established flat-fee brands
- No oral/sublingual route for the needle-averse
Luma Health Co
Luma Health Co is a nurse-practitioner-led virtual weight-loss and wellness clinic founded by Tiffani McKnight, FNP-C.
Why it's a deal
- Transparent, competitive pricing published up front — compounded semaglutide from $120/mo, tirzepatide from $180/mo, retatrutide from $170/mo
- No subscription, monthly fee or membership — a direct-to-patient model where you pay per medication, and follow-up visits are free
- Free initial consults for first responders, law enforcement, military, nurses and teachers ($0), and $25 for other healthcare workers
- Founded and led by a named family nurse practitioner (Tiffani McKnight, FNP-C) licensed across 30 states/DC, with HIPAA-compliant virtual visits
- HSA/FSA funds and financing accepted, with itemized invoices for HSA/FSA submission
The fine print
- Offers compounded retatrutide (labeled "RTT/GLP-3"), an investigational triple agonist not FDA-approved — a higher-risk, less-studied option
- Compounded medications only — no brand-name Wegovy, Zepbound or Ozempic — and compounded GLP-1s aren't FDA-reviewed or approved
- No LegitScript certification shown and no compounding-pharmacy partner named, so the dispensing pharmacy can't be independently verified
- Small, newly established founder-led practice with a thin website and limited public track record or third-party reviews
- Medication prices are "starting at" and billed on top of a one-time consult fee, so the true first-month cost runs higher than the headline
