Pricing in context
How TeleFirst Med's monthly price sits against the category median and the cheapest provider we track.
What we like
- Prescribes real brand-name GLP-1 (e.g. Ozempic/Wegovy), not compounded — appealing if you specifically want FDA-approved branded medication
- Simple $120 telehealth evaluation with a licensed doctor; no insurance hassle and no prior authorization
- You fill the prescription at your own regular pharmacy rather than waiting on a mail-order compounding pharmacy
- Also a general telehealth clinic (urgent care, chronic-condition management) if you want broader care
The caveats
- Only Texas and North Carolina are confirmed — not available nationwide
- The $120 is an evaluation fee; the brand-name medication is billed separately at your pharmacy and can be expensive without insurance
- Small practice (about 500 patients) with limited public detail on its clinicians and program
- No compounded or lower-cost medication option, and no medication pricing is published
Who it's for — and who should skip it
Choose TeleFirst Med if people who want tX or NC patients who want a brand-name (not compounded) GLP-1 prescription via a $120 telehealth visit.
Skip it if that doesn't sound like you. A closer fit may be Beluga Health (Match Score 48) — or take the quiz to see where TeleFirst Med lands for your priorities.

TeleFirst Med, answered
Is TeleFirst Med legit?
TeleFirst Med is a real, operating GLP-1 telehealth program, but we don't find it on the LegitScript registry, so it carries less third-party verification than the certified providers on our board. It dispenses compounded medication, which isn't FDA-approved. Vet the prescriber and pharmacy before you commit.
How much does TeleFirst Med cost?
TeleFirst Med doesn't publish a clear compounded-semaglutide price up front. You'll typically see full pricing after the intake questionnaire. Get the all-in monthly number in writing before you pay.
Does TeleFirst Med ship to my state?
TeleFirst Med operates in a limited set of states (2 states). If yours isn't on that list, you'll need a nationwide provider instead.
TeleFirst Med vs CoreAge Rx — which is better?
Both are on our board. TeleFirst Med scores 48/100; CoreAge Rx leads our default ranking at 91/100 for its flat nationwide pricing on both molecules and easy cancellation. TeleFirst Med can still win for you if its strengths match your priorities — best for: People who want tX or NC patients who want a brand-name (not compounded) GLP-1 prescription via a $120 telehealth visit. Run the quiz to see which comes out ahead for you.
