Apex MD
A physician-led weight and longevity practice that builds its GLP-1 program around quarterly bloodwork and scheduled physician visits, then asks for thirty days' notice to stop.
Review by Craig Palmer, peptide pharmacology writer · Updated October 2026
The short version
The clinical structure is more than most cash-pay sellers describe: a physician meeting within 48 hours, quarterly labs and quarterly check-ins, all at a flat monthly price. The weak points are the paperwork and the marketing. Patient counts disagree on one page, and cancellation needs thirty days' notice by email or phone.

Apex MD is an Orlando-based telehealth practice run by Apex MD, Inc., with programs for weight loss, hormones, testosterone and what it calls longevity. The peptide shelf is short: compounded NAD+ as an injection and a nasal spray, and compounded sermorelin as an injection. The weight program sells compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, which its medication safety page describes as injectable prescription medicines. A separate microdosing program sells both drugs at low doses, as weekly injections or daily dissolving tablets. Bloodwork panels, genetic tests and a concierge membership are sold alongside.
What Apex MD prescribes, by goal
Weight
- SemaglutideFDA-approved
- Injection (compounded)From $299/mo
- Oral (compounded)Price not published
- TirzepatideFDA-approved
- Injection (compounded)From $399/mo
- Oral (compounded)Price not published
Compounded semaglutide is $299 a month and compounded tirzepatide $399, each printed as all doses included and rate-locked while you stay. The program page prints no milligram dose and no schedule, because the dose is set at the physician meeting and adjusted on labs. Quarterly bloodwork, the provider visits and the tracking app are folded into that price. The page says there is no membership fee on top. The microdosing line is a separate product at $249 for every formulation, and it is aimed at inflammation and energy rather than weight loss.
Longevity
- NAD+Legal to compound
- Injection (compounded)From $249/mo
- Nasal spray (compounded)From $249/mo
NAD+ is $249 a month as an injection and $249 as a nasal spray, and the page puts 2,400 mg in a four-week injection cycle. No per-dose strength or injection schedule is printed beside that total. The nasal form is described only as a daily spray. Sermorelin is $249 a month as an injection, and its page prints no dose, strength or frequency. The FAQ lists its hoped-for effects on sleep, mood and muscle without citing anything.
Recovery
- SermorelinLegal to compound
- Injection (compounded)From $249/mo
Sleep
- SermorelinLegal to compound
- Injection (compounded)From $249/mo
Each “From” figure is the seller’s own starting price, in the unit the seller states. Where a required fee or a package length changes what one month costs, the smaller line under it is our arithmetic, not a figure the seller prints. Compounded preparations are not FDA-approved.
Who prescribes
A licensed clinician
The terms say care comes from Medical Groups whose licensed providers are independent professionals contracted with affiliated professional entities. The telehealth consent names them: Apex MD Healthcare Partners, PC, its state entities in California, Colorado, New Jersey, Wisconsin and Puerto Rico, and Reliant MD Medical Associates PLLC. That consent also warns your provider might be a nurse practitioner or a physician assistant rather than a physician. The microdosing page describes a national network of more than 1,000 providers. The one clinician named throughout is Dr. Jim Bowen, the chief medical officer, who is said to write the protocols and oversee the physicians. Nothing says he reviews your own intake. Pharmacies are described as LegitScript-certified and FDA-regulated, or as FDA-registered 503B compounding pharmacies, and none is named.
For the weight program you take a short questionnaire, and reaching checkout means you have prequalified, so payment comes before a physician has looked at anything. A physician then reviews the intake and approves it for shipping, and a lab requisition is emailed for any Labcorp or Quest. The FAQ says you can meet an Apex MD physician by video within 48 hours, and that meeting is where the dose is personalized. After that the FAQ describes quarterly check-ins with your physician, extra visits between them, and a direct messaging line it calls unlimited provider access. The telehealth consent adds that visits can be video, telephone or asynchronous. If the physician does not approve you, the FAQ promises your money back immediately or a credit.
Are labs required?
Included, quarterly
Bloodwork is the backbone of the weight program. The FAQ says quarterly labs at any Labcorp are included in the subscription, with at-home kits for a small upcharge. The how-it-works panel calls the bloodwork optional, free and encouraged rather than required before a prescription. The microdosing page says your provider chooses a formulation after your labs. The peptides page does not mention bloodwork at all.

What it claims, and what it cites
The weight page contradicts itself on scale. Its hero line reads over 300,000 patients served, and a carousel further down says over 3,000 people have worked with the practice. The about page repeats the 300,000 figure, so one of the two numbers is wrong by a factor of a hundred. The muscle claim carries the most weight and the least support. The FAQ says most clients on the program gain muscle, and seven before-and-after cards list pounds of fat lost beside muscle gained. No method, sample size or study sits behind either. The chief medical officer's credentials are worded differently from page to page. The weight page calls him former Chief of Staff of the United States Navy, and the about page calls him former Chief of Medical Staff. The NAD+ table compares a 2,400 mg four-week supply with a named research-peptide vendor's 700 mg, without saying where the competitor's figure came from. A value table prices the included care at $5,686 a year by Apex MD's own valuation. The medication safety page tells readers their Fridays provider will guide their dosing. That is another company's name, left in copied text.

How it bills
Each GLP-1 is one monthly price with no prepaid ladder: $299 for semaglutide and $399 for tirzepatide, the same at every dose. The peptides are also flat monthly prices, $249 for either NAD+ form or sermorelin. The terms are where the exit sits. Subscriptions renew automatically unless you cancel at least thirty days before the renewal processing date. Cancellation is by email or telephone, not a button in the portal. That sits beside an FAQ answer saying you are not locked into a contract. The first month can be refunded in full within thirty days of first enrolling, and after that nothing comes back, though access runs to the end of the paid month. Leaving with an active prescription has a cost later: restarting means paying a reactivation fee equal to one month of your old plan. Shipping charges, if any, are shown at checkout under the terms, and the program pages print none.
