Eden Health GLP-1

#44 of 53
6.9/10

Premium online weight-loss program from Eden Health (San Francisco, founded 2021). Different from competitors in one specific way: every patient is paired with a board-certified obesity medicine doctor (a doctor with specialized training in weight and metabolism), not a general practitioner or nurse. Quarterly blood panels (metabolic, lipid, A1C) are included in the monthly cost. Eden prescribes both compounded GLP-1s (custom-made versions, not the FDA-approved brand) and brand-name Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, and Mounjaro.
