Weight care in the District of Columbia.
Company statements checked September 10, 2026: 1 covered company — Gentle Health — advertises online weight care services to patients in the District of Columbia. Confirm eligibility and total charges with the provider.
The selected online weight-care offering that names the District of Columbia, with its three named compounded programs, billing commitments and evidence limits.
For patients in the District of Columbia. These are advertised online services, not verified local offices, appointment slots or prescription guarantees.
Read the District entry narrowly
The evidence for this listing is Gentle Health’s own coverage article, which enumerates the District of Columbia alongside the states it names and describes the same three compounded programs for that footprint: oral semaglutide, injectable semaglutide and injectable tirzepatide. After adding Missouri on September 18, the article described its reach as 40 states plus the District, so the District is counted separately rather than folded into a state total.
These are separately priced programs with tier-dependent charges, not a bundle of three medicines. Advertised monthly starting rates are $112 for compounded oral semaglutide, $135 for compounded injectable semaglutide and $169 for compounded injectable tirzepatide; other tiers cost more. The company advertises no separate membership charge.
The monthly amount is not the full commitment
Gentle Health’s current terms say requesting the first medication shipment starts a recurring monthly subscription. An order and subscription may be canceled before the order is sent to the pharmacy; after it is sent, the subscription may be canceled beginning 30 days after the order date. Cancellation takes effect immediately and stops future billing, but the remainder of the current billing month is not refunded. Refunds after pharmacy submission are handled case by case.
Confirm the first-visit route
Gentle Health publishes a state-by-state account of its initial prescribing process describing both questionnaire-review and scheduled-video routes. The company’s workflow article lists Washington, DC among the jurisdictions where the first visit starts asynchronously, with a questionnaire reviewed by a clinician rather than a scheduled video call. That describes the company’s stated process, not a guarantee: a clinician can still ask for a live conversation, and you should confirm the required steps before paying. A clinician can request more information, require a live visit or decline to prescribe.
Company-reported coverage is not independently verified clinician or pharmacy licensing, a booked appointment, stock, individual eligibility or legal clearance for an order. All three programs are compounded rather than FDA-approved products. The Gentle Health profile and the national weight-care directory add context, not a recommendation and not a local-office claim.

How companies enter this list
Each selected company has a published profile, a maintained service row and a separately reviewed match to current evidence for this state. A general national footprint is insufficient. The list is selective; an omitted provider is not necessarily unavailable. Inclusion does not establish clinical suitability, state licensure or a currently available appointment.
Smaller and larger providers use the same source requirements and alphabetical ordering. Visit each profile for company history and wider context, or suggest another provider.
