Visit TD Tele-Doc Weight LossThe verdict for women
CoreAge Rx edges out TD Tele-Doc Weight Loss on the Metabolic-Fit Score, 86 to 43 (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.
TD Tele-Doc Weight Loss is still a genuine option — two sentences on the same homepage, a few lines apart: "In Network with Medicare and Most Major Insurance Plans", and then "Please note, we are currently unable to accept Medicare or Medicaid." For a mother on Medicare that is the difference between a covered program and none at all. What sits underneath is a real Virginia practice with two named physicians, an athenahealth portal and commercial insurance billing — a shape almost nothing else on this page has. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities.
Side-by-side on the six factors
Both providers scored on the same women's-health rubric — the higher side on each factor is marked. See the methodology.
Price, access & features

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
TD Tele-Doc Weight Loss
Metabolic-Fit 43/100 · Grade C
What we like
- Bills commercial insurance in network, which almost nothing else we review does
- Names its physicians — Peter Wilbanks, MD and Michael Perini, MD — and links to a recognized medical group
- Offers FDA-approved Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic and Mounjaro alongside compounded semaglutide
The caveats
- The homepage claims Medicare network status and then states it cannot accept Medicare, in the same view
- Virginia only — the narrowest coverage on this page
- "Starting at $199" is the only figure published anywhere; there is no breakdown, no dose tier and no follow-up rate
