About Gaya Wellness
Gaya Wellness runs three tiers and only the upper two include drugs: $149/mo buys GLP-1 access with no medication attached, $349/mo adds the compounded medication, and $549/mo puts GLP-1 together with HRT. Board-certified physicians write compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide, backed by a lab panel of 50+ biomarkers, weekly asynchronous check-ins and payment that qualifies for HSA/FSA. The practice is virtual and OB/GYN-led, aimed at women 40+. You must be 18-64 with a BMI of 30+, or 27+ carrying a metabolic condition. Licenses cover FL, NC, VA, IN and TN.

Gaya Wellness
What we like
- The monthly figure covers medication, consult, labs, coaching
- No FDA warning letter matched this operator when we searched our enforcement register
- A live video visit with a clinician is required before a prescription, which is slower than a form and is the more careful intake
- Baseline bloodwork is required before a prescription
Watch-outs
- Semaglutide at $349 a month, 85% above the $189 register median for the same drug and form
- No price appears until the medical intake is complete, so the cost cannot be compared before health information is submitted
- Coverage is published for 5 states only, so this may not reach you
- No dispensing pharmacy is named in our record, so its accreditation cannot be looked up from here
- Its semaglutide and tirzepatide are compounded rather than FDA-approved, so they have not been reviewed by the agency for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality
bmiMD
What we like
- Semaglutide at $99 a month, 48% below the $189 median for the same drug and form across this register
- Tirzepatide at $139 a month, 48% below the $267 median for the same drug and form across this register
- Publishes a price on its own site before the medical questionnaire, so it can be compared without handing over health information
- The monthly price is recorded as flat across doses, so it does not climb as the dose is titrated up
- The monthly figure covers medication, consult, shipping
- Coverage is published for all 50 states
- No FDA warning letter matched this operator when we searched our enforcement register
Watch-outs
- No dispensing pharmacy is named in our record, so its accreditation cannot be looked up from here
- Its semaglutide and tirzepatide are compounded rather than FDA-approved, so they have not been reviewed by the agency for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality
