Visit Dr. Gillis' Wellness CenterThe verdict for women
CoreAge Rx edges out Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center on the Metabolic-Fit Score, 86 to 37 (B vs C). Someone considering both compounded injection options who wants an advertised flat price without a required subscription and will confirm the exact prescription, state access and refund terms.
Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center is still a genuine option — there is a real clinic behind this one — an address in Oakland, Maine, a phone number, free consultations every Wednesday afternoon. And there is a line on its pricing page that nothing else we review comes close to: "Add Retatrutide to your current Semaglutide or Tirzepatide regimen for just $100/month." Retatrutide has no FDA approval for anything. It is still in phase 3 trials. There is no labeled dose, no labeled safety profile, and nothing at all about stacking it on top of a drug you are already taking. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities.

Metabolic-Fit / 100
CoreAge Rx
Metabolic-Fit 86/100 · Grade B
What we like
- Officially linked public offer advertises $79/month semaglutide and $129/month tirzepatide across doses
- Advertises care and free overnight cold shipping within those prices, with no membership fee
- Public offer describes one-time purchases, no required subscription and the same refill price
The caveats
- Main navigation still shows semaglutide from $99, conflicting with the $79 officially linked offer
- A patient-specific prescription quantity and checkout total were not verified; confirm before paying
- State eligibility depends on therapy; nationwide access should not be assumed
Metabolic-Fit / 100
Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center
Metabolic-Fit 37/100 · Grade C
What we like
- A physical clinic with a street address, a phone number and a named physician
- Free consultations every Wednesday from 1 to 6 PM, and no contracts
- Prices the injection, the oral form and tirzepatide separately, so you can see which product a figure belongs to
The caveats
- It sells retatrutide, an investigational drug with no FDA approval for any use, and sells it as a $100 add-on to a GLP-1 you are already on
- No terms of service, no privacy policy and no telehealth consent exist on the site — twenty-one paths returned nothing
- Coverage is one clinic in Central Maine, so this is only useful if you can reach Oakland
