CoreAge Rx vs Florida Weight Loss MD
CoreAge Rx and Florida Weight Loss MD both offer GLP-1 telehealth, but they make different trade-offs on speed to first dose, flat pricing, access and molecule choice. Here they are side-by-side on the Rx-Readiness Score — our readiness rubric.

Visit Florida Weight Loss MDThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out Florida Weight Loss MD on the Rx-Readiness Score, 95 to 56 (A vs C). Working moms who want a decision, not a research project — flat pricing, both semaglutide and tirzepatide, and no scheduled video visit to book around work and pickup.
Florida Weight Loss MD is still a genuine option — a surgical practice rather than a telehealth brand: a Hollywood, Florida bariatric center with a named surgeon, offering sleeves and bypasses alongside the injections, and same-day appointments. Semaglutide is $69 a week or $179 a month; tirzepatide starts at $279. Two things to price carefully. The package labels overstate their own length — "2.5-Month (10 Weeks)" is 2.3 months — and the practice markets retatrutide, which is not approved anywhere for anything. Weigh the six readiness factors below against your own priorities.

CoreAge Rx
Ranked #1 · Grade A
What we like
- Flat monthly price that stays put through titration — no dose-scaling surprise on your busiest month
- Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide on one plan, so you're not re-signing to switch
- Async, no-video intake and all-50-states coverage — start it during a lunch break
The caveats
- Not the rock-bottom sticker price — a couple of teaser tiers elsewhere start lower
- Compounded only — no FDA-approved brand option
- General metabolic program, not a boutique concierge service
Florida Weight Loss MD
Ranked #169 · Grade C
What we like
- A genuine physical practice with a named surgeon, Dr. Sergey Terushkin, MD, FACS, at a published address
- The full surgical ladder alongside medication — sleeve, bypass, revision, balloon
- Publishes weekly, monthly and multi-month pricing for semaglutide rather than one figure
The caveats
- The package labels overstate their duration: "2.5-Month (10 Weeks)" is 2.3 months and "5-Month (20 Weeks)" is 4.6, so the implied monthly rate is lower than the real one
- It markets retatrutide, an investigational drug not FDA-approved for any indication
- The page carrying its GLP-1 pricing is written for Newark, New Jersey
