How to Find a Quality GLP-1 Provider w/ Sabina Hemmi
Send us Fan MailNavigating the world of GLP-1 telehealth providers is overwhelming and most people have no reliable way to compare options before committing hundreds of dollars. Sabina Hemmi has been on a GLP-1 for over three years, lost 60 pounds, dealt with nearly every side effect in the book, and turned her frustration with the provider landscape into a full platform to help others avoid the confusion she went through. In this episode, she walks through what GLP Winner tracks and why — price breakdowns, compounding pharmacy transparency, real user reviews, and the vetting process behind adding a new provider. She also breaks down the current legal landscape around compounded GLP-1s, which states are pushing legislation that could cut off access, and why that matters beyond just weight loss medication. About Our Guest, Sabina Hemmi: Sabina Hemmi is the founder of GLP Winner (glpwinner.com), a platform built to help GLP-1 patients compare telehealth providers, understand pricing, and evaluate compounding pharmacies — all in one place. She has been on a GLP-1 medication for over three years and lost 60 pounds. Before GLP Winner, Sabina built companies in the video game industry and co-owns speedrun.com, the leading leaderboard platform for video game speedrunning. She created GLP Winner after personally experiencing how difficult and opaque the telehealth provider landscape was — and after interviewing more than 150 patients who shared the same story. She now tracks over 100 providers, publishes monthly reviews, and covers access and compounding legislation across social media under the handle @Lawliepop.
