Florida Weight Loss MD review

Written by Elena Voss, Metabolic Health Editor

Elena Voss is a mother writing for mothers, not a treating clinician, and holds no medical license. Prices and terms come from the company's own published pages. This is background reading, not medical advice.

This is a real surgical practice rather than a telehealth brand — a Hollywood, Florida bariatric center with a named surgeon, doing gastric sleeves and bypasses alongside the injections. Semaglutide runs $69 a week or $179 a month; tirzepatide starts at $279. Two things need care. Its package labels overstate their own length — "2.5-Month (10 Weeks)" is 2.3 months and "5-Month (20 Weeks)" is 4.6 — and the practice markets retatrutide, a drug that is not approved anywhere for anything.

How we scored Florida Weight Loss MD

Every factor comes from Florida Weight Loss MD's own published pricing, disclosures and oversight, and the six combine into the 50/100 Metabolic-Fit Score on our weighted six-factor framework. Commissions don't change a provider's score.

True monthly cost52/100 · Weak

Cost is unpredictable or sits at the premium end.

Postpartum & breastfeeding guidance34/100 · Weak

No postpartum or breastfeeding framing — a generic weight program.

PCOS & hormonal fit40/100 · Weak

Thin on the hormonal picture that drives many mothers' weight.

Ongoing support60/100 · Weak

Support is thin once the prescription ships.

Clinical oversight & labs74/100 · Fair

Oversight and lab support fall short of the best on our list — the review below says exactly where.

Cancellation fairness36/100 · Weak

Exit terms are the weak point: lock-in, notice periods, or a cancellation you have to chase.

How we checked this review

It is a physical bariatric surgical practice in Hollywood, Florida with a named surgeon, offering GLP-1s alongside sleeve, bypass and revision surgery. Compounded semaglutide is $69 a week, $179 a month or $399 for three months; tirzepatide starts at $279 a month. Its package labels overstate their own length — "2.5-Month (10 Weeks)" is 2.3 months and "5-Month (20 Weeks)" is 4.6 — so priced by the week those packages are $194 and $162 a month rather than the $180 and $150 implied. The practice also markets retatrutide, which is not FDA-approved for any indication, and the page carrying its GLP-1 pricing is written for Newark, New Jersey.

Many HSA and FSA plans cover GLP-1 telehealth — check yours. These figures are what Florida Weight Loss MD's own site disclosed at last review; this market re-prices often, so confirm the current number at the source.

What we like

  • A genuine physical practice with a named surgeon, Dr. Sergey Terushkin, MD, FACS, at a published Hollywood, Florida address
  • Offers the full surgical ladder alongside medication — sleeve, bypass, revision, balloon — so the medication is not the only option on the table
  • Publishes weekly, monthly and multi-month pricing for semaglutide rather than one figure
  • Carries brand-name options including Wegovy pills and Foundayo (orforglipron)
  • Names side effects and contraindications directly, including medullary thyroid carcinoma, MEN2 and pregnancy
  • Same-day appointments, with service in more than one language

The caveats

  • The package labels overstate their own duration: "2.5-Month (10 Weeks)" is 2.3 months and "5-Month (20 Weeks)" is 4.6, so the implied monthly rate is lower than the real one
  • It markets retatrutide, an investigational drug that is not FDA-approved for any indication and remains in trials
  • The page a reader lands on for GLP-1 pricing is written for Newark, New Jersey — one of a set of city-targeted pages on a Florida practice's site
  • Prices are all "from", and the site says dosage and pricing vary after medical evaluation
  • No list of states served is published for the telehealth side
  • The largest figure on the site, $9,299, is gastric sleeve surgery and has nothing to do with the medication

A physical surgical practice offers more than medication

Florida Weight Loss MD is associated with Florida Surgery & Weight Loss Center, a Hollywood, Florida practice naming Sergey Terushkin, MD, FACS. Its broader menu includes sleeve, bypass, revision and balloon procedures alongside medication. That setting may matter to someone who wants a clinician to discuss several approaches rather than a prescription-only storefront. It does not make a surgical price a GLP-1 price: the prominent $9,299 figure concerns a gastric sleeve procedure, not a monthly medication program or an alternative dose tier.

The semaglutide information lists weekly shots from $69, a monthly program from $179 and a three-month supply from $399, with medication, supplies and follow-up described as included. Those are distinct choices and all remain starting amounts. Ask for the intended prescription and complete continuing charge, rather than assume the lowest weekly purchase or divided three-month amount establishes a universal monthly rate. The practice says dosage and pricing can vary after evaluation, so the clinical recommendation and final financial offer need to match.

Week-based packages should keep their real duration

Tirzepatide is advertised from $279 monthly, with $449 for ten weeks and $749 for twenty weeks. The latter packages are labeled two-and-a-half and five months, which overstates their calendar duration. Ten weeks is about 2.3 average calendar months and twenty about 4.6. Compare the full payment and actual weeks rather than divide by the more generous month labels. A package can have a lower equivalent while still committing more money upfront and offering different flexibility from a single-month purchase.

The practice also markets retatrutide through a dedicated page and calculator. Retatrutide is investigational and not FDA-approved; a clinical-looking page or calculator does not establish an approved product or permission to add it to an existing regimen. This is a consequential product-status issue to discuss before deciding whether the service fits. A named surgeon and physical location provide accountability, but they do not change the regulatory status of an unapproved substance or make every marketed treatment appropriate for a particular patient.

Telehealth reach should not be inferred from city pages

The GLP-1 pricing page contains Newark, New Jersey targeting within a Florida practice's site. That is not proof of a Newark clinic or a complete telehealth service-area list. Confirm the actual appointment location, treating practice and eligibility where the patient will be during consultation. The operating company is identified as Florida Comprehensive Health Management LLC at the Hollywood address. Ask which pharmacy dispenses the actual medication and how follow-up occurs for someone who is not attending the physical practice.

Brand options include Wegovy pills and Foundayo, which is orforglipron rather than semaglutide or tirzepatide. Each needs its own product-specific quote. The practice names pregnancy and other clinical exclusions, but that is not the same as a dedicated postpartum or PCOS pathway. Relevant history should be discussed alongside the broader treatment choices. Before buying a package, obtain renewal, cancellation and unused-supply terms. The most useful comparison keeps surgery, starting medication prices, real week durations and the investigational retatrutide concern separate, rather than allowing one impressive-looking number or a physical-clinic setting to resolve them all. A local appointment and remote follow-up can also have different practical requirements to confirm before enrollment.

The bottom line for mothers

Best for: Someone in South Florida who wants a surgeon in the room, and will price the packages by the week rather than by the label.

  • CoreAge RxFeatured partner

    CoreAge's officially linked public offer advertises compounded semaglutide at $79/month and tirzepatide at $129/month across doses, with care and overnight shipping included. It describes one-time purchases without a required subscription. Main navigation still shows semaglutide from $99; confirm your prescription quantity and total, and read the refund limits before paying.

  • RxSpan MD is a genuinely well-disclosed service wrapped in marketing that undercuts it. The disclosure: four compounding pharmacies named with phone numbers, two lead physicians named with NPI numbers that verify as active MDs, flat pricing posted before any intake, both compounded and real FDA-approved brand GLP-1s on one platform, and oral capsules for anyone who won't inject. Compounded semaglutide is $249 a month and tirzepatide $329, with brand Zepbound at $1,069, Ozempic at $1,299 and Wegovy at $1,349. The marketing is the problem. Its testimonials still name a different company — one patient describes what she 'expected from CareGLP' — and the doctors quoted in them are not the clinicians the same page names as its medical team. The homepage is built around a board-certified plastic surgeon who founded the practice but is licensed in California only and isn't the prescriber. Its compounded prices also sit above the typical price we track, and the oral capsules cost the same or more than the injections.

    Visit RxSpan MD
  • Four named pharmacies, a named prescribing partner and brand-name Wegovy, Zepbound and Ozempic alongside the compounded line — that is a fuller disclosure than most providers we review manage. Compounded GLP-1 injections start at $179 a month and daily dissolvable tablets at $249, and the price attaches to the form rather than the molecule: the product page never says whether you are getting semaglutide or tirzepatide, and the terms confirm both are in scope. Two things deserve a mother's attention before she enrolls. The brand products are priced as a membership plus an undisclosed medication cost, and that membership is quoted at two different figures on one page, $99 beside Zepbound and Wegovy and $171 beside Ozempic. And the terms state that if a provider decides a different molecule suits you better, staying enrolled is itself your consent to the switch and the charges continue. It also discloses, unusually plainly, that people shown in its advertising may be actors or artificial intelligence rather than clinicians.

Florida Weight Loss MD, answered

How much does Florida Weight Loss MD cost?
At last review, Florida Weight Loss MD's lowest ongoing compounded rate was about $179/mo — $179/mo for the monthly program for semaglutide, From $279/mo for tirzepatide. This market re-prices often, so check the current all-in figure at the source before committing.
Is Florida Weight Loss MD safe to use while breastfeeding?
None of these drugs is established as safe in pregnancy, so stopping before you try to conceive is the usual plan. For breastfeeding, the Wegovy injection, Ozempic, Zepbound and Mounjaro labels report little or no data on the drug in breast milk and ask you and your clinician to weigh the benefits of breastfeeding against your need for the medicine. Compounded versions carry no label of their own; ask the prescriber directly how they handle nursing patients. Florida Weight Loss MD is not an exception to any of that — settle the timing with your own clinician.
Does Florida Weight Loss MD offer both semaglutide and tirzepatide?
Yes — Florida Weight Loss MD offers both molecules. Tirzepatide's dual GIP/GLP-1 action is often preferred where insulin resistance drives weight, which matters for PCOS and after gestational diabetes.
How does Florida Weight Loss MD score for mothers?
Florida Weight Loss MD scores 50/100 on our Metabolic-Fit Score, a weighted read of six things mothers actually have to care about. CoreAge Rx, a featured partner, is worth a side-by-side look.

Pricing, states and verification reflect Florida Weight Loss MD's public disclosures at last review; the Metabolic-Fit Score is our editorial judgment per the published methodology.
