How Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center scores
Six columns, each one computed from something Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center has published rather than from an opinion we formed: what it charges, which molecules it will dispense, what its record shows, and what the monthly figure actually buys. Where a seller keeps something back, such as its price or its pharmacy, the score reflects it. Every seller we review goes through the same six columns.
Value25%
5.0/10$200/month is 1% above the $199 median for compounded semaglutide across the sellers we compare.
Effectiveness25%
10.0/10Dispenses semaglutide and tirzepatide, compounded only. Anchored to SURMOUNT-1 (tirzepatide, -20.9%) and STEP 1 (semaglutide, -14.9%).
User Experience15%

Trust & Safety15%
6.5/10No pharmacy is named for its prescriptions. It shows a price before asking for health information.
Accessibility10%

What signing up with Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center involves
What to expect on the way to a prescription: where the price appears, who fills the medication, and what the monthly price covers. It is not medical advice, and a clinician makes the prescribing decision.
- 1Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center shows a price on its own site before asking anything about you, so you can compare it with other sellers before you start a questionnaire.
- 2Ask Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay. The pharmacy's name is what lets you check its license.
- Lowest ongoing monthly price: semaglutide $200, tirzepatide $300. That leaves out membership fees, first-month rates and insurance copays.
- Confirm that Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center serves your state before you start.
- The medication is compounded, so it is not an FDA-approved product and has not been reviewed by the agency for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality.

In its favor
- Tirzepatide costs $300 a month, close to the $269 median for compounded tirzepatide across the sellers we compare
- Shows its price before the medical questionnaire, so you can compare it without handing over health information
- We found no FDA warning letters issued to Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center
Against it
- Semaglutide costs $200 a month, 1% above the $199 median for compounded semaglutide across the sellers we compare
- Confirm it serves your state before you start the intake
- Ask which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay, so you can check its license
- 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
- Its menu lists retatrutide, which FDA says cannot be used in compounding under federal law and has not been found safe and effective for any condition
What Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center charges
Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center lists $200/month.
- Compounded semaglutide (monthly): $200/month
- Compounded tirzepatide: $300/month
- Compounded semaglutide: $150 as an introductory price
For compounded semaglutide, the median across the sellers we compare is $199/month, so Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center's $200 lands mid-market. Price is unlikely to be the deciding factor. Before you pay, compare Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center's cancellation terms with other sellers' cancellation and refund policies.
Belle Health dispenses semaglutide and tirzepatide from $199/month, which makes it the fair comparison to run before you commit here.
What Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center dispenses
Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center prescribes semaglutide (approved as Wegovy and Ozempic) and tirzepatide (approved as Zepbound and Mounjaro). Between them these are the pair carrying the strongest published outcome data. What arrives is compounded at a licensed pharmacy, not an approved pen. That is the reason it costs less, and the reason the finished preparation carries no FDA review behind it. The molecule can be the one in Ozempic and Wegovy; what differs is the formulation, the concentration and the dose ladder.
Safety and disclosure
Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center tells you its price before you start the medical questionnaire. We found no FDA warning letters issued to Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center. Because the medication is compounded, the most useful question to ask at intake is which licensed pharmacy fills the prescription. If Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center will not tell you, treat that as a warning sign. A 503A pharmacy answers to a state board and a 503B facility to the FDA; which one fills it changes what you can check. How we weigh oversight, disclosure and price is set out in our scoring methodology.
Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center also sells NAD+, and a 2026 systematic review found no outcomes trials of injected NAD+ for anti-aging or wellness.
Who should look elsewhere
- You want the FDA-approved pen specifically. Everything listed here is compounded.
- You need insurance to cover the cost. Check whether Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center bills your plan before you start.

Where Dr. Gillis' Wellness Center is the wrong choice
No seller suits every reader, and pretending otherwise is the easiest way to sell one. On these three counts, another seller does better.
- If you need the FDA-approved pen rather than a compounded vial, consider WellMedRx.
- If the standing monthly cost is what decides it, consider Collective (from $59/mo + membership).
- If you want a human checking in, not just a prescription, consider Eden.
