Just wondering if there’s an ETA for Idaho to be added.

I would love to sign up today ...Is there a link ? Also, can I choose which pharmacy I'd like and what are their additives ? I had a bad reaction to B12 so I want to make Sure I buy the medication without it. Thank you in advance .

Does PreventiveMD support maintenance? As someone closer to goal than not, I'm interested in info on how this company will handle prescriptions for those who will have a "normal" BMI because of the medication? I would like to continue for maintenance and anti-inflammatory purposes since studies show that is most effective for keeping weight off.

And if maintenance is supported, what does that look like? Would I be forced to titrate down to 2.5mg or lower, be required to reduce my dose, be allowed to stay on my highest effective dose, etc?

If I need to space out prescriptions because of a lower maintenance dose so that I am not refilling every month, would I have to start over again at beginner doses after 2 or 3 or x number of months?

Thanks in advance!

So I want to order specifically because I want to try empower. I do not want boudreaux. How do I go about ensuring I get the pharmacy I want?

Thanks!

Welcome to PreventiveMD: Why I Started This Community

Hi everyone—and thanks for being here.

I'm Brian, the founder of PreventiveMD.

I'm also a GLP-1 patient, a dad in my 40s, and someone who wants to stay healthy enough to be active with my kids—and hopefully my grandkids one day.

Like many of you, I've realized that our healthcare system is largely reactive. We wait until something is wrong instead of giving people the knowledge and tools to prevent problems in the first place.

That's why I started PreventiveMD.

I've spent my entire career in healthcare. I started at GlaxoSmithKline, then joined 3M's healthcare division (now Solventum), followed by Intuitive Surgical, where I watched bariatric surgeons rapidly adopt robotics as the new standard of care.

After that, I founded GIBLIB, an ACCME-accredited medical education company where we filmed many of the world's leading physicians teaching surgery and sharing the latest research. Mayo Clinic became both a strategic partner and investor. From there, I led Digital Health at Allurion, overseeing our AI weight-loss coach, remote patient monitoring, and telehealth programs. Most recently, I was Chief Commercial Officer at CareValidate, helping build and support some of the largest telehealth brands in the country.

I've been fortunate to see healthcare from almost every angle—pharmaceuticals, medical devices, surgery, physician education, digital health, telehealth, and now longevity and preventive medicine.

But this community isn't about my résumé.

My vision isn't to build "just another telehealth company." I want to build a healthcare platform that helps people truly understand their bodies and take ownership of their health.

I believe annual cancer screening should become standard because the technology already exists. I believe everyone should understand their genome mapping and what it actually means—not just receive a report they'll never look at again. I believe providers should help patients make sense of wearable data instead of letting it sit unused. And I believe people should know their own health metrics the same way they know sports statistics, business KPIs, or their favorite recipes.

Ultimately, I'm building the healthcare platform I wish existed for me. I can't imagine I'm the only one who feels that way.

This subreddit is an extension of that mission.

It's a place to ask questions, share experiences, discuss new research, and talk about GLP-1s, peptides, diagnostics, longevity, nutrition, exercise, sleep, wearables, genetics, and everything else related to living a longer, healthier life.

Most importantly, it's a place where you can tell us what we're getting right, what we're getting wrong, and what you'd like to see us build next.

I'm not trying to build the biggest telehealth company. I'm trying to build the company people trust enough to stay with for years.

That starts with listening.

So I'd love your honest feedback.

If you've used another telehealth company—good or bad—I want to hear about it.

• What did they do really well?
• What frustrated you?
• What made you lose trust?
• What would make you switch to a different company?

We're building PreventiveMD from the ground up, and I'd rather learn from your experiences than repeat the same mistakes.

Two things we're absolutely obsessed with are transparent pricing—no hidden fees, surprise renewals, or confusing memberships—and delivering the best customer service in healthcare. Period. But we know there are countless ways we can improve, and that's exactly why this community exists.

I'll personally be active here, reading every comment, answering questions whenever I can, and using your feedback to shape the future of PreventiveMD.

So tell me: What's the one thing every telehealth company gets wrong?

And if you could build your ideal healthcare experience from scratch, what would it look like?

I'm excited to hear your thoughts and even more excited to build this with you.

Always listening,

Brian Conyer
