Two paths to GLP-1 therapy

Not sure which is right for you? That's what the free consultation is for. Samantha will walk you through both and help you decide.

Insurance Route

SLIM Approach

Concierge GLP-1 Care

We handle the prior authorization with your insurance so you can access brand-name GLP-1 medications at your pharmacy's copay — not out-of-pocket retail pricing.

$100 / month
  • First month covers prior authorization submission to your insurance
  • Ongoing months include health plan, access to Samantha, and refill management
  • Direct chat support through Practice Better
  • If insurance denies, switch to any standard Youth membership — no penalty
  • Subject to insurance approval — we guide you through the process

Compound Route

Compound GLP-1

Skip the insurance process entirely. We prescribe compounded GLP-1 through our trusted pharmacy partners, personalized to your body and your goals.

Membership + Protocol

  • Protocol billed separately — pricing reviewed during consultation
  • Monthly or twice-monthly check-ins with Samantha
  • Ongoing chat support through Practice Better
  • Dosing personalized to your labs, response, and goals

From first call to first dose

Simple, guided, provider-led. Here's what the process looks like.

1

Book your free consultation

A free 15-minute Initial Wellness & Optimization Consultation with our team to talk through your goals, medical history, and which GLP-1 path makes sense for you. No obligation.

2

Complete your intake

If there's a fit, you'll be invited into Practice Better — our secure patient portal. Fill out your intake forms and health history so Samantha can review everything before your first check-in.

3

Labs and provider review

Samantha orders any necessary labs through our partner network. Once results are in, she builds your personalized protocol — no cookie-cutter dosing.

4

Start your protocol

Your medication ships directly to you. From here, Samantha monitors your progress, adjusts dosing as needed, and stays available through secure chat.

Your provider knows your name

Most GLP-1 clinics hand you a prescription and disappear. At Youth, you get a dedicated provider who manages your entire journey — not a rotating door of strangers.

Common questions about GLP-1 care

The SLIM Approach works through your insurance — we handle the prior authorization so you can access brand-name GLP-1 medications at your copay. The compound route skips insurance entirely and uses personalized compound medications from our pharmacy partners. Both include provider oversight from Samantha.

You have options. You can continue the SLIM Approach at $100/month while we resubmit or appeal, or you can switch to any standard Youth membership and go the compound route instead — no penalty for switching.

No — Youth is fully telehealth. Your consultations happen by video, your medication ships to your door, and you can message Samantha anytime through our secure portal. Labs are drawn at a Quest location near you.

For the compound route, most patients start within one to two weeks of their first consultation — once labs are reviewed and the protocol is set. The SLIM Approach timeline depends on your insurer's prior authorization process, which can take a few days to a few weeks.

Yes. It's a 15-minute call to talk through your goals and see if Youth is the right fit. No credit card, no commitment, no sales pitch. If we're not the right match, we'll tell you.
