Editor’s Note: Sesame Care is a growing, venture capital funded startup that has raised 75 million in funding since 2018 and its Chief Medical Officer was recently appointed to be FDA chair. Thus it is fair to say Sesame has decent credentials. Across all services offered, they have treated over 500,000 patients.
Sesame also offers a low priced $249/month semaglutide injection plan that includes consults, labs and medication.
In reviews, Sesame customers were generally happy with their video consults, but expressed frustration about waiting for available appointments that delayed treatment or shipping. Billing concerns were similar to others in the industry, with auto-payment issues a recurrent theme.
Overall, Sesame offers great value for those who prefer to have some video interaction with providers.
Those who are willing to pay out of pocket costs for Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro or Saxenda have an $89 per month subscription option for a program that includes an initial video consultation, follow up visits if needed and labs. The company also provides assistance with insurance paperwork to reduce mediation costs.

The Sesame Intake Process
Sesame’s intake process is multi-step and includes a virtual visit with a licensed medical provider.
Complete 2-3 Minute Health Screener
Complete a brief health questionnaire covering weight, medications and other basic health questions to determine if you're qualified for treatment with GLP-1s. If not, you may qualify for other weight loss medications.
Choose Your Subscription
If you meet the requirements, you'll have the opportunity to choose whether you'd like to receive an authorization to your pharmacy or get compounded semaglutide shipped direct to your mailbox.
Complete Brief Medical Interview
Speak with a medical professional who makes the final decisions on your medication and dosage. If you opt for an authorization only plan, the RX will be dispatched to your local pharmacy digitally.
2 Day Express Delivery
If you have chosen a semaglutide plan, your first shipment is sent in a cooled package via express delivery after your virtual visit. Auto-renews will ship automatically, so be sure to manage those settings appropriately as no companies offer refunds on undamaged shipped medications.
Begin Treatment
Your shipment should arrive within 5-7 business days from the time you completed your virtual visit and you can begin treatment at your pace according to the recommended dosage your provider suggests.
Follow Ups (If Needed)
If you have questions about your medication, the dosage or anything else, you can message a licensed medical provider 24/7.
