RUN, It’s like a one night stand that won’t call you back
Everything started good with the quick two minute sign-up. I received my first shipment within seven days.
My second shipment I filled out the request form on time (August 12) submitted it and then never received a refill. I called the Help phonenumber and they were helpless. It was 30 minutes of my life I cannot get back. I was told I would hear from somebody in the next 24 to 48 hours. I never received a phone call back. I decided to email Support and it was like they did not understand what I was asking for, they thought I wanted to update my weight! Keep in mind I was charged for my second shipment 15 days before it was shipped. The only reason I was able to get my shipment last month is because I scheduled an appointment with a doctor. Once I met with the doctor and the telehealth call I got my shipment pretty quickly.
Now here I am in my third month and I don’t have my refill form in the portal. I was already charged for my third shipment last week. They do not have an option to make a doctor appointment anymore and the contact support information is not available.
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. THEY ARE A SCAM

Don’t sign up with them they do not refund money
I signed up with this company and got the VIP membership in order to appetite 14 days later I contacted the company because I still haven’t got nothing and I was told that it was going through Review and we’re sorry for a delay and that it would still it was still being processed, and that I could expect it by the weekend 19 days later I contacted the company again now I’m told that they do not provide refunds even though they’ve given me nothing and done nothing now I’m being told that they will deduct services. They’ve provided from the amount that I paid if they provide a refund.
I’ve told them I want my money back they refuse to give it to me
Do not use this company now I’m being told that I have to go through my doctor and get a doctors note to get their services
What the hell do I need them for? I might as well just go to my doctor so I have to wait a month and I have to get a doctors note for them to get approved to give me medication. Why would I go to them? I’ll just go to my doctor and get it from my doctors office in a month and a half.
And I’m out the money for the VIP membership, which is bullshit and the medication which is bullshit

Terrible customer service
My first order of tirzepitide arrived hot with the ice pack melted and hot also. I have called 5 times and they keep saying they’re escalating my case but nobody ever calls me back. They told me it should still be good even though online it says it would be ruined. I used it once and got really sick. I’m asking for a refund for that one.Meanwhile, I’ve been charged for a 2nd order that has been delayed arriving. So I’ve paid for 2 months and haven’t been able to use any yet.
Terrible customer service!!

STAY FAR AWAY from EMBODY !!!!!!
STAY FAR AWAY from EMBODY !!!!!!
Finally received my order, which was incomplete. I ordered 3 months, only received 2.Opened package and thought they forgot to put in medication in the vials Doesn't even look like enough for 2 weeks. Second vials is the same amount and my doze is supposed to be 40 units, was told 3rd month dose will arrive in October why ? I paid for 3 months, I should have received 3. Something doesn't sound right. I think a refund should be given. Right, Not going to happen. They take our hard earn money and they rip us off once the get our money. You get what you pay for....A SCAM. Called right away, person on phone had no problems saying I understand...No he doesn't. They read from scripts. After call, I went right on portal and canceled anymore subscriptions. Waiting for my lawyer to get back with me and after this, I'm contacting BBB. They're a scam , hope medication is real, which I'll be having tested I'm sure. So disappointed. Karma is all I'll end with.

Embody Failed Me on a Time-Sensitive…
Update, September 28: five days later, still no medication, and now I've found duplicate charges
I posted the original version of this review on September 23. Embody replied publicly within hours saying they'd "be reaching out to make things right." Here's what actually happened.
A patient experience rep called me. He was responding to this review; he had no idea about the three supervisor escalations I'd already requested through their chat. He sent two apologetic emails. Neither one fixed anything.
Where things stand today, 24 days after I paid:
• Two of my prescriptions still haven't shipped. Their own portal says "Running late."
• The rep told me in writing that one of them had "already shipped" under a different product name. It hadn't. That was a separate order with its own tracking number.
• My primary medication finally shipped, but they sent the dose my nurse practitioner discontinued on September 21 because it wasn't working. The corrected dose she prescribed is still "at the pharmacy."
• My September 21 appointment is still marked "Missed" even though I attended it for 15 minutes and have the visit summary. When I asked them to fix it, the answer was "we no longer have an option to make corrections." For a medical record.
• I reviewed my payment history and found I was charged twice for three products: a $49 "one-time" charge and a $99 charge on the same day, for each one. Their subscription page advertises "$49/month, $100 off first month." I paid $148 each.
• While all of this was unresolved, they emailed me a marketing message warning that skipping doses slows progress.
Their website says "Get your weight loss meds in 1–2 days." I have the screenshot.
I've filed chargebacks with my card issuer and a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. I'd have preferred to update this review with good news; the rep knew that, because I told him. I'm still waiting.
If you're considering Embody for a time-sensitive prescription, read their BBB profile first.
Embody Failed Me on a Time-Sensitive Health Medication
I paid for Tirzepatide (GLP-1 injection) on September 4th. It is now September 23rd—19 days later—and I still have not received my medication.
What happened:
• Embody's standard delivery timeframe is 3-5 business days. I am 14 days overdue.
• Their own system alerted me: "Your order is late, and we're sorry."
• When I contacted support, I was given a UPS tracking number—but it was for a DIFFERENT medication, not mine. This is a critical fulfillment error.
• Chat support was disconnected without resolving my issue.
• When escalated, I was told I'm "within timeframe" despite being nearly 3 weeks late—which directly contradicts their own alert.
• They refused compensation, citing a "non-refundable" policy that doesn't apply to failed delivery.
GLP-1 medications require strict dosing consistency. Missing doses disrupts progress and effectiveness. A 19-day delay isn't an inconvenience—it's harm to my health goals and a breach of the service I paid for.
What I experienced:
• Dismissive customer service
• False/incorrect tracking information
• Unresponsive support
• Vague timelines instead of solutions
• No accountability or compensation
Embody promised reliable, timely medication delivery. They failed on every level.
Do not use this company for time-sensitive prescriptions. There are better telehealth options.

False advertising!
I paid for the VIP membership... it has offered NOTHING. The website claims that everything will be "shipped to your door in 1-2 days"... this DOES NOT happen. I waited 11 days for the first one, and I am currently on day 4 of "its been accepted and is processing at the pharmacy" now.
DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE!
They are fast to charge you but don't deliver on ANY of their guarantees.
Response from EmbodySep 24, 2026
We understand how frustrating it must be to pay for a VIP membership expecting faster delivery, only to experience significant delays and continued uncertainty around your order. We’re sorry that the experience did not match the expectations set by the information you received. This is certainly not the level of care we aim to provide our patients. We would truly appreciate the opportunity to make things right and will be reaching out to you to gather more details. Your experience matters to us, and we’re committed to addressing your concerns.

I placed an order for tirzepatide 10…
I placed an order for tirzepatide 10 days ago. The website makes it sound like you will get it in just a few days. Pretty soon, you get messages that it will be 3-5 days. After that, they just keep telling you it should ship very soon. I asked where my order was, and was told they were going to escalate the order. That was 3 days ago, and it has still not shipped. This is a complete joke! I would NEVER RECOMMEND buying from these people. All you get are silly messages that mean nothing. Don't waste your money. Go elsewhere.

We understand how disappointing it is to place an order expecting it within a certain timeframe, only to receive repeated messages without a clear resolution or shipment.

Very disappointed
Medicine worked great, first time I found the help I needed. Then they let me down after first order. Late meds, missed dosages and would not return money for late dose. It had not been filled yet and refused to give me money back. If you don't have the product don't accept payment !!!
