MD Exam review
On the homepage this is a flat-fee program: $225 a month, medication included, coaching included. In the FAQ it is a practice that bills insurance: it takes most plans, your cost depends on your coverage, and it even explains how to fax your details in. Both versions are live and nothing connects them. The same page also gives two different Miami addresses and two different support emails.
- HSA / FSA eligible
- Independently scored
- No insurance needed
Every medical claim is cited to its primary source — the clinical trial or the FDA label — so you can open it and check it yourself. No one on this team is your healthcare professional. What follows is friendly information, never medical advice.

- Meet CoreAge Rx
Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide with advertised flat prices; clarify the offer and renewal rules before paying.
- Meet Gala Health
$179/mo for either medication, flat across doses, with a genuinely gentle microdose tier — if you can live with an annual plan and a pharmacy it will not name.
- Meet Oak
From $119/mo semaglutide, $185/mo tirzepatide, fully asynchronous with free delivery — the real monthly price and the cancellation terms only appear after you sign up.

How we scored MD Exam
Each factor is judged from MD Exam's actual pricing, disclosures and support, then combined into the Mama-Match Score of 41/100 using the same weighted six-factor framework we apply to every provider — never influenced by whether a provider pays us.
The cost is unpredictable, hidden behind a quiz, or in the premium range.
Coverage is limited or gated behind a signup.
Canceling carries real friction — commitments, notice windows or non-refundable charges.
The start feels transactional — more cash register than welcome.
Little public detail about who oversees your care, and how.
Support is thin once the prescription ships.

Company website
Read on 18 August 2026. MD Exam LLC advertises a program "priced as low as $225 per month, which includes telemedicine visits, nutrition and exercise coaching, and medication", with a $50 consultation charged separately. That is all the published pricing. Two things cloud it. Its FAQ describes a different business — that it accepts most insurance plans, that what a prescription costs depends on the plan, and how to fax insurance details in — and nothing says which applies to you. And the same page carries two Miami addresses with two different support emails. I checked one claim rather than accepting it: the FAQ says "the active ingredient, Semaglutide, has always been available", blaming any shortage on the brand-name pen. The FDA shortage database, queried the same day as this review, lists no active shortage of semaglutide injection but does list semaglutide tablets as being discontinued by their manufacturer. That characterization is the seller's and nothing supports it; this review does not claim the opposite, only that there is nothing behind it. It publishes no states and no pharmacy. It came back clean in the FDA warning-letter index.

What we like
- $225 a month with the medication included would be at the affordable end of this page
- Nutrition and exercise coaching are inside the price rather than sold on top
- It engages with insurance, which almost nobody else reviewed here does
- The company is named and there is a toll-free number
The caveats
- ⛔ A flat-fee program and an insurance-billing practice are both described, and nothing reconciles them
- ⛔ Two different Miami addresses and two different support emails on one page
- Its claim that the active ingredient "has always been available" is its own and is not what the FDA shortage record shows
- The $50 consultation sits outside the advertised monthly figure
- An answer prefix leaks into the text: "A: Our program is priced…"
- It publishes no states and names no pharmacy
MD Exam for moms: our verdict
On the homepage this is a flat-fee program: $225 a month, medication included, coaching included. In the FAQ it is a practice that bills insurance: it takes most plans, your cost depends on your coverage, and it even explains how to fax your details in. Both versions are live and nothing connects them. The same page also gives two different Miami addresses and two different support emails. It runs about $225/mo — pricier than the category, so the extras have to earn it.
We looked at MD Exam the way moms actually have to: not just the monthly cost, but the right timing around pregnancy and nursing and honest, clear pricing from the start — the parts a generic weight-loss review skips.
What MD Exam actually costs
- Compounded semaglutide — Program price, medication included: $225/mo
For context, the typical ongoing price on our list is around $177/mo, so MD Exam sits at the pricier end.
That price covers the consult, the medication and coaching.
The medications MD Exam prescribes
MD Exam prescribes semaglutide (the active drug in Wegovy and Ozempic). Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved finished products. Confirm the exact formulation and dispensing pharmacy; an approved brand’s trial results do not establish the quality or equivalence of a compounded product.
Where it operates. MD Exam lists its coverage as: Not published.
Where MD Exam fits — and where it doesn't — for moms
A good fit if…
- you want a straightforward semaglutide program and you'll confirm the details before you commit.
Look elsewhere if…
- you specifically want an FDA-approved brand-name pen with its own pregnancy and breastfeeding label.
- you need to discuss the right timing around pregnancy and nursing with your treating clinician before choosing. If comparing prices with CoreAge Rx, request the offer and terms separately from that clinical decision.
Trust, safety and oversight
Our confidence here is limited — MD Exam publishes little about how its program actually works, so you're buying on price and on trust in its partners. As with any compounded GLP-1, the most useful thing moms can do is confirm which licensed pharmacy fills the prescription and what's in the formula — we explain how we score oversight in our scoring methodology.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding need separate discussions with your clinician. GLP-1 weight-loss treatment is not recommended during pregnancy. During breastfeeding, the exact drug and formulation matter: Wegovy tablets are not recommended because of the SNAC absorption ingredient. Injectable semaglutide and tirzepatide labels call for weighing benefits, risks and the limits of infant-safety data; they do not establish that treatment is safe for every nursing parent. Compounded products do not inherit FDA approval from the branded drug. Discuss your own medication and timing before starting or changing treatment.
The bottom line
MD Exam is a reasonable option — weigh it on the right timing around pregnancy and nursing and honest, clear pricing from the start against the alternatives below. For moms comparing another compounded offer, CoreAge Rx describes prices and terms to confirm for the selected dose and plan.
The bottom line
Best for: A mom who will call first to find out which of these two businesses she is signing up to.
