# Independent Wellness review

A single-provider telehealth practice selling compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, with a semaglutide rate its own pricing page states two ways.

## The verdict

Compounded tirzepatide is $299 a month after a $199 first month. Semaglutide opens with a $99 month. After that, the page prints its rate as $299 on the plan card and $199 in the table below it. That conflict is not resolved on the page.

Claimed by provider

Independent Wellness runs weight-loss care online. Both compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide are on its menu. It also offers microdosing and peptides such as NAD, glutathione and sermorelin. There is no membership fee.

1.  ## Who writes the prescription, and what do they see?
    
    One clinician is named: Bonnie Lea Davis, FNP-C, a board-certified nurse practitioner. The pricing page says the patient works with her throughout the program. No physician is named. Visit one happens over live video.
    
    Monthly visits are required. The first is a video visit. The second and third months may be refill-only and asynchronous. A video visit is required every three months. Annual labs are recommended before starting. Medication ships monthly.
    
2.  ## What happens when the dose goes up?
    
    The plan cards say the agreed price never changes. The FAQ says tirzepatide pricing varies by plan and dose. The two statements are not reconciled. Dose adjustments are made by the same provider. No milligram dose is published.
    
3.  ## What the price includes
    
    Tirzepatide is $199 for the first month, then $299 a month. Semaglutide's opening month is $99. Its later rate is $299 on the card and $199 in the comparison table. A first-month offer is not the standing price. Unlimited provider visits are included. No payment is taken until approval.
    
4.  ## What it claims, and what it cites
    
    Both products are compounded. They are not FDA-approved. The FDA does not review them before dispensing. The site names three partner pharmacies: DCA Pharmacy, Link Pharmacy and Boudreaux's New Drug Store. Each is listed with its address and the states it serves.
    

## Where it holds up, and where it does not

-   Strength: Same named provider for the whole program
-   Strength: Three partner pharmacies named with addresses
-   Strength: No membership fee
-   Strength: LegitScript certification stated
-   Limitation: Two different semaglutide ongoing rates on one page
-   Limitation: Fixed-price promise conflicts with the FAQ
-   Limitation: Monthly visits are mandatory
-   Limitation: One clinician carries the whole practice

## What the evidence says about this kind of treatment

The assessment above is about Independent Wellness. These are about the drugs it sells, and they are traced to the primary literature.

Right for

A reader who wants the same nurse practitioner at every visit and the pharmacy named in advance.

Wrong for

A reader who needs a settled semaglutide rate before starting.

## The evidence behind what Independent Wellness prescribes

These studies examine the medicines, not this provider. Results with approved products do not establish the quality or effectiveness of a seller’s compounded formulation.

-   [Cochrane Review of Semaglutide for Obesity: 18 Trials Graded](https://thisglp.com/research/semaglutide-cochrane-review)
    
    A 2025 Cochrane review pooled eighteen randomized trials. The weight figure is high certainty and smaller than the marketing, and almost everything else is graded lower.
    
-   [Tirzepatide vs Semaglutide: Which Works Better for Weight Loss?](https://thisglp.com/research/tirzepatide-vs-semaglutide-which-works-better)
    
    In a 72-week randomized trial at weight-management doses, weight fell 20.2 percent on tirzepatide and 13.7 percent on semaglutide. Routine-care studies found a smaller gap, three to four points.
    

## How Independent Wellness compares

| Seller | Who it suits | Go |
| --- | --- | --- |
| SynergenX Health | Readers near a clinic metro who want a live video visit and can budget for visit fees |  |
| Good Girl Rx | A reader who will read the one-month rung rather than the headline, and wants microdoses labeled as such |  |
| CLYR Health | Buyers who want the cost of each dose tier published before the first injection |  |

## Frequently asked

What is the semaglutide rate from month two?

The pricing page states it two ways: $299 on the plan card and $199 in the comparison table.

What does tirzepatide cost?

$199 for the first month, then $299 a month. The card and the table agree.

Which pharmacy fills the prescription?

One of three named partners: DCA Pharmacy, Link Pharmacy or Boudreaux's New Drug Store, depending on state.

Is Independent Wellness expensive compared with other GLP-1 telehealth sellers?

Independent Wellness publishes a starting figure of $299/mo. Across the 402 GLP-1 telehealth sellers we review that publish a single monthly figure, those run $49 to $525.42 with a median of $190, which puts Independent Wellness above the median. The other 178 GLP-1 telehealth sellers we review quote only after an intake or price by dose, so they are not in that comparison. A starting figure is not a bill — labs, consultations and shipping are often charged separately, so confirm what your own quote includes.
