What we like

  • LegitScript certified; physician-owned Livea Medical PLLC; Medical Director Dr. Paul Olson, internal medicine/nephrology, 40 years experience
  • Compounded sema from $99/mo and tirz from $199/mo — significantly cheaper than brand Ozempic/Wegovy ($1,000+/mo self-pay)
  • Comprehensive program: InBody scans, registered dietitian nutrition counseling, health coaching, and regular provider check-ins included
  • 15+ years established (founded 2011); 50,000+ clients served; voted Minnesota's Best Weight Loss Program 5 consecutive years
  • Medications shipped to door; same-day consultations; in-person or telehealth; typically HSA/FSA eligible

The caveats

  • Telehealth limited to 4 states only (MN, WI, IA, FL) — unavailable to most of the US; primarily a regional clinic network
  • Pricing ambiguous: $69/mo program fee plus separate medication cost ($99/mo sema) may bring GLP-1 total to ~$168/mo
  • Compounded tirzepatide availability uncertain — FDA announced shortage end in 2026; access subject to eligibility
  • Labs (bloodwork) not explicitly included in any published program tier; confirmed at consultation only
  • Strong MN/WI clinic focus; telehealth reach into IA and FL is newer and less established than core markets

The verdict

Best for: Shoppers who want comprehensive physician-supervised GLP-1; compounded sema $99/mo; 8 clinics + telehealth, MN/WI/IA/FL only. Livea is a physician-supervised medical weight loss clinic founded in 2011 with 8 clinics in MN and WI, plus telehealth in MN, WI, Iowa, and Florida.
