ZipHealth

+Large scale for a generalist telehealth pharmacy platform: 560,000+ customers claimed and one of the higher Trustpilot review volumes in the category (3,700+ reviews, 4.2 average).
+Broad prescription menu spanning hair loss (finasteride), ED, migraine, antiviral, UTI, and other common conditions through a single flat consultation fee.
+Fast, self-service intake flow praised by many reviewers as easy to navigate.
Reviewers describe automatic subscription renewals with insufficient warning and difficulty canceling — a billing-friction issue distinct from having a subscription model at all.
Individual medication pricing (including finasteride) is not shown until after intake is completed, limiting upfront price transparency.
Multiple reviewers report multi-day waits for provider consultations despite marketing an 'express' service.
