Visit Florida Weight Loss MDThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out Florida Weight Loss MD on the Editors' Rating, 94 to 58 (A vs C). Mothers who want to know the real monthly cost before the free trial talks them into it — one flat price on semaglutide or tirzepatide, everywhere in the country, with no lock-in.
Florida Weight Loss MD is still a genuine option — a real surgical practice rather than a telehealth brand: a Hollywood, Florida bariatric center with a named surgeon doing sleeves and bypasses alongside the injections. Semaglutide is $69 a week or $179 a month; tirzepatide starts at $279. Two things need care. The package labels overstate their own length — "2.5-Month (10 Weeks)" is 2.3 months and "5-Month (20 Weeks)" is 4.6 — and the practice markets retatrutide, a drug not approved anywhere for anything. Weigh the six factors below against your own priorities.

CoreAge Rx
Editors' Rating 94/100 · Grade A
What we like
- Flat all-in price that doesn't step up after month one — the number you sign for is the number at the full dose
- Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide on a single account, so a molecule switch never resets the budget
- Licensed in all 50 states — care survives a move, a deployment, or a summer at the grandparents'
The caveats
- Not the rock-bottom sticker price — a bare teaser tier elsewhere can look cheaper for exactly one month
- Compounded only; no FDA-approved brand Wegovy or Zepbound if that is what you and your clinician want
- A general metabolic program, not a dedicated women's or maternal-health clinic
Florida Weight Loss MD
Editors' Rating 58/100 · Grade C
What we like
- A genuine physical practice with a named surgeon, Dr. Sergey Terushkin, MD, FACS, at a published Hollywood, Florida address
- Offers the full surgical ladder alongside medication — sleeve, bypass, revision, balloon — so medication is not the only option on the table
- Publishes weekly, monthly and multi-month pricing for semaglutide rather than one figure
The caveats
- The package labels overstate their own 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 a reader lands on for GLP-1 pricing is written for Newark, New Jersey — one of a set of city-targeted pages on a Florida practice's site
