Provider review
Options Medical Weight Loss review
28 physical clinics across 9 states — but telehealth-only coverage stays undisclosed
Options Medical Weight Loss runs compounded semaglutide injections "starting at $199/mo" and tirzepatide injections "starting at $299/mo," confirmed live, alongside oral tirzepatide at $339/mo and oral semaglutide at $239/mo — a lower semaglutide starting figure than prior research had recorded. It maintains 28 physical clinics across 9 states (Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Arizona, North Carolina, Pennsylvania), confirmed live, plus a telehealth track whose specific covered states are never published — you find out only after entering the intake. LegitScript certification, an ABOM diplomate badge, and a Newsweek "top U.S. weight loss clinic" recognition all appear on-site, confirmed live, none of which prior research had captured. The program bundles labs, metabolic analysis, and nutrition/behavior coaching into its structure, confirmed live.
Straight talk: how we earn — some, not all, of these are affiliate links; start a program through one and we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Straight about the rest, too: the write-ups say what each provider is actually worth, and a commission does not change a word of them. Full disclosure here.

The verdict
Options Medical Weight Loss has real, checkable infrastructure most pure telehealth storefronts don't: 28 physical clinics, an ABOM diplomate credential, and a Newsweek recognition, all confirmed live. If you're near one of its 9 clinic states, that's a genuine differentiator. But the telehealth-only track — likely how most readers of this review would use it — never discloses which states it actually covers beyond the clinic footprint, so "starting at" pricing and eligibility both stay unconfirmed until you're inside the intake funnel.
Options Medical Weight Loss is not ranked on any of our boards. This is a standalone read of what the company publishes about itself — the providers we do rank in this category are on our semaglutide provider ranking. Nothing on this page is a performance claim — see the evidence review for what these compounds do and do not do.
Who it is for, and who it is not
A good fit if
- You live near one of the 9 states with a physical clinic and want in-person visits
- You want a program built around labs and metabolic analysis, not just a prescription
- You value third-party recognition (ABOM diplomate, Newsweek mention) alongside LegitScript certification
Look elsewhere if
- You're relying purely on telehealth and want your state's coverage confirmed before you start the intake
- You want a single published price rather than a "starting at" figure that may climb per your dose
- You want a named compounding pharmacy — none is disclosed anywhere on the site
What it actually costs
What they advertise
Compounded semaglutide injections: "starting at $199/mo," confirmed live on optionsmedicalweightloss.com.
What you actually pay, month to month
The $199 headline applies to injectable semaglutide specifically; tirzepatide injections start higher, at $299/mo, and oral tirzepatide runs $339/mo, all confirmed live.
The commitment trap
The homepage's "starting at $199" figure is the semaglutide-injection price only — tirzepatide, the drug many readers are comparing, starts at $299/mo instead.

Compounded peptides are not FDA-approved products, and a 503A pharmacy compounds for a named patient while a 503B outsourcing facility manufactures in batches under CGMP. Neither is a quality guarantee on its own — a named facility is simply a fact you can check, and an unnamed “partner pharmacy network” is not. Our guide to verifying a certificate of analysis covers what to ask for.
Where you can get it
28 physical clinics across Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Arizona, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania, confirmed live; telehealth-only state coverage isn't published.
The honest cons
The part they would rather you skipped
Options Medical Weight Loss discloses its 28-clinic physical footprint clearly, confirmed live, but never publishes which additional states its telehealth-only track covers — a reader outside the 9 clinic states won't know if they're eligible until after starting the intake.
- Telehealth-only state coverage is never published, only discoverable via intake
- "Starting at" pricing means the real per-dose cost isn't confirmable before the funnel
- Compounding pharmacy never named
- Refund/cancellation terms weren't found in any publicly accessible content
None of this is unique to Options Medical Weight Loss — the whole category shares it. What we hold against a provider is the part it hides, and the ways vendors hide things are catalogued in our vendor red-flags guide.
How it compares
The providers we rank on our semaglutide provider ranking, in the order that board ranks them. Options Medical Weight Loss is not among them: it is reviewed here, not ranked there, and we would rather show you the comparison than pretend the two are the same thing.
- BHBodybuilding Health+One of the deepest peptide catalogues here, and the loosest one
- Enhance MDWrites a flat-price-at-every-dose policy down — and charges near the top for it
- RxSpan MDOral tablet only, at a real $179 monthly rate
- Direct MedsThe plainest price mechanics on either board, from a company with an FDA warning letter
- Synergy RxPublishes a starting number, and nothing about what it commits you to
- Sprout HealthA $150 markdown the site never explains, and a semaglutide price quoted by the quarter
- Strut HealthInjection or troche, but $119 is the auto-refill price only
- MadeMedPrices are published — but there is no monthly option at all

Read this before you buy
A provider comparison is half the decision. The other half is whether the compound does anything for you at all — and whether it is allowed where you compete. Growth-hormone secretagogues are banned in tested sport, year-round, and a prescription does not change that.
