Visit Nu Image MedicalThe verdict for a first step
CoreAge Rx edges out Nu Image Medical on the Mama-Match Score, 73 to 56 (C vs C). Someone comparing dose prices who can obtain the offer, state availability and order terms in writing.
Nu Image Medical is still a genuine option — one of the network's longer-established telehealth operators (since 2008) — as low as $99/mo semaglutide, $269/mo tirzepatide — though state coverage isn't itemized beyond a 'trusted nationwide' claim. Weigh the six first-timer factors below against your own priorities.

Mama-Match
CoreAge Rx
Rank #32 · Grade C
What we like
- Published prices for both molecules, with the same advertised amount at each dose
- The offer includes medication, consultation and shipping, without an advertised membership fee
- The legal footer identifies the platform and the entities responsible for clinical care
The caveats
- The main site and a separate offer page show different prices
- The FAQ and policy differ on automatic rebilling and denial refunds
- State restrictions; orders become final when sent to pharmacy, with a 30-day refund cutoff
Mama-Match
Nu Image Medical
Rank #156 · Grade C
What we like
- Operating since 2008 — a longer track record than most providers among the providers we review
- Claims over 1,000,000 patient encounters and a 4.9/5 rating from 30,000+ verified patients
- Broad treatment menu beyond GLP-1s on the same platform (ED, testosterone, hair)
The caveats
- Both prices are framed as 'As low as' — the exact cost at a working dose isn't guaranteed
- No itemized state-coverage list published, only 'trusted nationwide' marketing language
- No named compounding pharmacy or medical director found anywhere on its site
