Chronos Body Health & Wellness
What we like
- Physician-led clinic with a named team — physicians, NPs and registered nurses
- Offers brand-name (Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, Mounjaro) and compounded options
- No upfront payment — you start with a registered nurse consult
- Microdosing GLP-1 approach available for longer-term use
Watch-outs
- Telehealth only in Louisiana and Texas — not nationwide
- No upfront pricing published; cost depends on the plan after consult
- Compounded options prescribed only when medically appropriate
- Broader aesthetic/clinic focus, not a GLP-1-only specialist
Collective
What we like
- The lowest published compounded GLP-1 medication prices we track — $59/month semaglutide and $69/month tirzepatide
- Flat pricing at every dose, so titrating up does not raise the bill
- Unlimited clinician messaging and registered-dietitian access are included rather than upsold
- 21-day free trial on the membership before the annual fee is charged
Watch-outs
- The advertised $59 and $69 exclude a mandatory $199 annual membership — the real first-year cost is $907 and $1,027
- Membership fees are non-refundable and no partial-period refunds are given
- Compounding pharmacies are described only as 'independent, third-party licensed pharmacies' and are never named
- State availability is not published on the marketing site
