Pros and cons
What we like
- Separates prescription-access care from an included compounded medication tier.
- Discloses the commitment behind lower advertised rates.
- Identifies supported states and a possible high-dose surcharge.
What could be better
- Different membership menus need reconciliation.
- Quarterly cancellation and refund mechanics are not explained.
- Testing costs and the dispensing pharmacy require confirmation.
What it is
Gaya's Weight Loss Concierge program combines virtual care with nutrition planning and ongoing physician contact, aimed at women with midlife weight and hormone concerns. Its tiers separate prescription access, included compounded GLP-1 medication and additional hormone care.
The focused program page names Dr. Shweta Patel as the clinician leading the service. This review does not independently verify credentials or endorse its treatment claims. Choose the care relationship and services you need rather than assuming a broader hormone package is necessary for weight treatment.
The program page lists Florida, North Carolina, Virginia, Indiana and Tennessee. Ask where you must be located for a visit, especially if you travel. Its virtual format still sends lab work to a local facility and medication through a pharmacy.
Foundation is intended for someone obtaining medication separately, including through insurance when approved. Premium includes a compounded GLP-1. Those are different purchases; an insurance-assisted branded prescription and an included compounded product should be compared with their identities intact.
Every price we found at Gaya Wellness
| Plan | Published price |
|---|---|
| Foundation weight-care membership, monthly optionCare and prescription access only; medication is separate. Lower advertised rate requires quarterly billing. | $199 / month |
| Premium compounded GLP-1 bundle, monthly optionPublished monthly Premium bundle; semaglutide or tirzepatide if eligible. Tirzepatide above 10 mg/week may cost more. | $399 / month |
What it actually costs at Gaya Wellness
The Foundation monthly option is $199; the lower $149 monthly equivalent requires a three-month billing cycle. Premium lists $399 for the monthly option or a $349 monthly equivalent with the same quarterly commitment. Treat the discounted figures as committed-plan rates, not flexible monthly purchases.
Premium includes compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide, but the page allows an increase for tirzepatide doses above 10 mg a week. Ask for the exact surcharge schedule if a clinician later recommends a higher dose. A medication-inclusive tier is not necessarily a fixed-price tier at every dose.
The inclusion list mentions biomarker panel orders. An order is not proof that the laboratory's actual testing charge is included. Request the lab's price or insurance responsibility and the name of the dispensing pharmacy alongside the program quote.
Other Gaya membership pages display a different tier menu. Use the specific program name in your written agreement and have the practice confirm which offer governs. Avoid combining a price from one menu with inclusions from another.
The focused page says cancellation is available, but does not explain how an unused quarterly term is refunded. Obtain the renewal date, notice requirements and unused-term policy before prepaying; stopping future renewal and receiving money back are separate questions.
For more context on this purchase, our guide to brand versus compounded products explains which details to confirm before paying.
Who it's wrong for
- Someone seeking branded medication inside the Premium compounded bundle.
- Someone expecting a fixed higher-dose tirzepatide price or included laboratory testing without confirmation.
- Someone outside the five listed states or unwilling to clarify the quarterly commitment.
Common questions
Does Foundation include the medication?
No. The focused page describes care and prescription access, with medication obtained separately. Insurance authorization support does not guarantee coverage.
Is the lower advertised rate a flexible monthly plan?
No. The page requires a three-month billing cycle for its lower rates. Ask what is charged upfront and how renewal works.
Does Premium include branded Wegovy or Zepbound?
The reviewed Premium tier specifies compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide. Do not interpret that bundle as a branded-medication purchase.
Can the tirzepatide bundle cost increase?
Yes. The page says dosing above 10 mg a week may raise the price. Request the additional cost before approving a change.
Does a lab order mean my testing is prepaid?
Not necessarily. The list promises panel orders but does not clearly establish payment of the laboratory charge. Confirm testing responsibility separately.
What states does the focused page list?
Florida, North Carolina, Virginia, Indiana and Tennessee. Confirm current clinician access and your physical location requirements before booking.
Why we gave Gaya Wellness a C
Read the full grading rationale
Gaya's focused weight-loss page separates care-only and medication-inclusive tiers and states the quarterly commitment behind its lower rates. It also discloses a higher-dose tirzepatide surcharge possibility. Differing prices elsewhere on the site, unclear prepaid refund mechanics and an unnamed dispensing pharmacy keep the cost-transparency grade at C, not a clinical rating.
