Pros & Cons Compared

bmiMD

Pros

+Same-day physician consults, one of the few platforms offering telehealth appointments the same day you apply
+80,000+ customer base with 4.9-star Trustpilot rating provides strong social proof of reliability
+100% money-back guarantee if your consultation determines you don't qualify for GLP-1 treatment
+HSA/FSA accepted for all programs

Cons

−Standard semaglutide pricing is $289/mo, above competitors at $99-199/mo; the TAKEOFF 3-month entry (about $99/mo first month) and annual plans from $99/mo bring the effective rate down
−$29.99 shipping fee per order where most competitors ship free; factor it into your monthly total
−A $50 non-refundable cancellation fee applies after intake approval; decide before the consult, and cancel at least 48 hours ahead of your monthly processing date

Strut Health

Pros

+Specializes in oral compounded semaglutide, the go-to for patients who absolutely won't do injections
+Needle-free oral semaglutide tablets from $99/mo, one of the lowest oral entry prices in the table, with oral tirzepatide ($199/mo) and auto-refill injectables ($149–$199/mo) if you switch formats
+Clear educational content about oral semaglutide absorption and how to maximize effectiveness
+Simple enrollment: online questionnaire, async provider review, medication shipped to your door

Cons

−Compounded only, no brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound. Oral tablets carry a bioavailability caveat vs injections, so results may come slower on the needle-free formats.
−Oral compounded semaglutide has lower bioavailability than injectable forms, so plan for potentially slower or smaller weight-loss results
