CoreAge Rx vs TOM Weight Loss

Visit TOM Weight LossThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out TOM Weight Loss on the Editors' Rating, 94 to 67 (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.
TOM Weight Loss is still a genuine option — a small, physician-led practice — Dr. Tran Le personally, capped at ~500 patients — $199/mo semaglutide, $249/mo tirzepatide, all-inclusive, but limited to Texas and Utah only, with no content addressing postpartum or PCOS. Weigh the six factors below against your own priorities.

CoreAge Rx
Ranked #1 · 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
TOM Weight Loss
Ranked #33 · Grade C
What we like
- Named, credentialed physician (Dr. Tran Le, MD, DABOM) with a published NPI — not a rotating pool
- Deliberately capped at ~500 patients, stated as a differentiator for personal attention
- Flat, all-inclusive pricing for both molecules with no hidden fees
The caveats
- No mention anywhere of pregnancy, breastfeeding, postpartum care, or PCOS
- Limited to Texas and Utah only — the narrowest coverage in this round
- No brand-name (FDA-approved) option
