Florida Weight Loss MD review
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.

How we scored Florida Weight Loss MD
Each factor is read off Florida Weight Loss MD's published pricing, disclosures and intake flow, and the six roll up into the 56/100 Rx-Readiness Score on the same weighted six-factor framework we apply to every provider — never nudged by whether a provider pays us.
Tiered or opaque — the true monthly is hard to pin down up front.
Limited or state-gated availability — confirm yours first.
Both molecules, though pricing on one isn't cleanly posted.
Exit terms are the weak point: lock-in, notice periods, or a cancellation path that isn't published.
The hardest start to fit around a workday — a scheduled visit, or no published answer either way.
Workable turnaround, but not the quickest route to a first dose.

Read from Florida Weight Loss MD's own pages in August 2026. It is a physical bariatric surgical practice in Hollywood, Florida with a named surgeon, offering GLP-1s alongside sleeve, bypass and revision surgery. Compounded semaglutide is $69 a week, $179 a month or $399 for three months; tirzepatide starts at $279 a month. Its package labels overstate their own length — "2.5-Month (10 Weeks)" is 2.3 months and "5-Month (20 Weeks)" is 4.6 — so priced by the week those packages are $194 and $162 a month rather than the $180 and $150 implied. The practice also markets retatrutide, which is not FDA-approved for any indication, and the page carrying its GLP-1 pricing is written for Newark, New Jersey.

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
- Carries brand-name options including Wegovy pills and Foundayo (orforglipron)
- Names side effects and contraindications directly, including medullary thyroid carcinoma, MEN2 and pregnancy
- Same-day appointments, in more than one language
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
- Prices are all "from", and dosage and pricing vary after medical evaluation
- No list of states served for the telehealth side
- The largest figure on the site, $9,299, is gastric sleeve surgery
Florida Weight Loss MD for working moms: our verdict
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. It runs about $179/month.
We weigh Florida Weight Loss MD the way working moms actually have to: not just the monthly line on your budget, but how fast you can start without a scheduled video visit and a flat monthly price that doesn't climb as your dose does — the parts a generic review does not measure.
What Florida Weight Loss MD will cost you
- Compounded semaglutide — Monthly program: $179/mo
- Compounded semaglutide — Three-month supply: $133/mo
- Compounded tirzepatide — Monthly: $279/mo
- Compounded tirzepatide — 10-week package: $194/mo
- Compounded tirzepatide — 20-week package: $162/mo
That's roughly in line with the ~$179/month median across our roster.
The medications Florida Weight Loss MD prescribes
Florida Weight Loss MD prescribes semaglutide and tirzepatide — the two best-evidenced molecules in the class, and having both on one account matters because you can switch between them without re-enrolling or hunting down a new provider mid-plan. It can route you to FDA-approved brand pens as well as compounded versions — the on-label products carry the manufacturer's own labeling, though the brand price runs well above the compounded tiers.
A needle-free oral or sublingual option is on the menu, which draws in working moms who've been avoiding injections — just set expectations: oral and buccal delivery of these peptides is far less studied than the injectable versions the trials used.
Where Florida Weight Loss MD fits — and where it doesn't — for working moms
Right for you if…
- the monthly line on your budget is a real barrier and you want a low, predictable number.
Not your best option if…
- you'd rather the most predictable place to start and pause — which is exactly what our #1 pick, CoreAge Rx, is designed around.
Trust, safety, and the fine print
Our confidence in Florida Weight Loss MD's public facts is high — pricing, pharmacies, and clinical network were verifiable at last review. As with any compounded GLP-1, the most useful thing working moms can do is confirm which licensed pharmacy fills the prescription and what's in the formulation — we explain how we weigh oversight in our scoring methodology.
A standing caveat for working moms: GLP-1 medications aren't established as safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and every label advises against use. Nothing here changes that — plan the timing with your own clinician.

The bottom line for working moms
Best for: A South Florida schedule that wants a surgeon available, and will price the packages by the week rather than the label.

- Visit CoreAge RxRx-Readiness95100CoreAge RxOur #1 pick
The shortlist pick: one flat price that doesn't climb as your dose does, both molecules on a single plan, and a nationwide async intake you can finish on a break.
- Visit Pallas HealthRx-Readiness89100
Pallas Health removes the two things that usually cost a working parent the most time: it publishes every price before intake, and it runs care asynchronously in 43 of 50 states, so there's no video appointment to wedge into a workday. Compounded semaglutide averages about $199 a month and tirzepatide $299, and unusually the genuine FDA-approved pens sit alongside them — Zepbound $1,069, Ozempic $1,299, Wegovy and Mounjaro $1,349 — all cash-pay from the same clinician. The price is flat at every dose, so a titration never produces a surprise bill, and the plan figure already contains the clinician, dose adjustments, check-ins and messaging with no membership fee. Its cancellation terms are unusually concrete: cancel free through the portal, keep access to the end of the paid period, full refund if a clinician declines you, and a $5 processing fee on a qualifying refund. The trade-offs are that billing lands every 12 weeks in $597 and $897 blocks rather than monthly, the compounding pharmacy is never named, and insurance is never billed.
- Visit Trimi HealthRx-Readiness88100
The price-first partner: some of the lowest flat, all-inclusive compounded pricing we track, nationwide and async — strong if the monthly number is your deciding factor and you read the annual-prepay fine print.
