MEDGm vs PeterMD: Costs, care and treatment fit
A side-by-side look at total cost, medication format, care, commitment and the situations where each option makes more sense.
Our MEDGm referral excludes Louisiana; Nebraska patients must be 19 or older. The provider must confirm your eligibility and medication availability. A prescription is required and is issued only if a licensed clinician finds treatment appropriate.
The decision
Which should you choose, MEDGm or PeterMD?

Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: MEDGm is $169/mo equivalent; $2,028 upfront for 12 months; applicable taxes may add to the bill; PeterMD is from $149/mo.

2 more documented strengths
- +Displays a linked LegitScript seal and supplied certification documentation
- +Publishes a full current-term refund if the clinician disqualifies you before the first medication shipment
Cons
- −Brand-name cards show membership fees only: $99 for Zepbound or Wegovy and $171 for Ozempic, with medication charged separately

- −The tablet's $239 monthly equivalent requires $2,868 prepaid for 12 months; the monthly welcome discount does not continue at renewal
2 more documented cautions
- −No individual medical director or prescribing clinician is named on the pages checked
- −Cancel at least 72 hours before renewal. Voluntary cancellation does not refund the paid term; dispensed medication is non-refundable
PeterMD
Pros
- +The tirzepatide plus B12 program is one price for any dose, $209/mo, and the page says it does not go up as you titrate
- +B12 is listed as an added ingredient in the GLP1 + B12 program
- +Video consultations with physicians included, real face-to-face medical oversight
Cons
- −The excluded states differ by page: the GLP1 plus B12 program lists AL, ID, AK and HI, the tirzepatide page lists only AL and ID, and the intake form asks about Alabama, Arkansas, Idaho and Hawaii. Confirm your own state during signup before planning around PeterMD.
- −The September 3, 2026 review snapshot recorded billing and delivery complaints alongside a BBB F grade and no accreditation. The current complaint record and which reports concern GLP-1 treatment remain unconfirmed.
- −PeterMD began as a testosterone replacement therapy platform; GLP-1 is an expansion, not the original core. The included video consultations give you a direct read on the clinical team.
Our Verdict
The available assessments do not establish a score winner between MEDGm and PeterMD. Compare the medication, full cost, care and commitment that fit your needs. An incomplete assessment is not evidence of poor care. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: MEDGm is $169/mo equivalent; $2,028 upfront for 12 months; applicable taxes may add to the bill; PeterMD is from $149/mo. MEDGm lists brand-name and compounded options. Check the exact product, availability and payment terms; these are not interchangeable treatments.
