Sesame Care review

A marketplace, not a clinic — and it sells no longevity medicine at all

Sesame's own search API returns an empty result for every NAD+, peptide and longevity term we put to it; what it genuinely sells is a cash-price clinician appointment from about $46, with each clinician setting their own fee.

How this site makes money

Plain version: a handful of the outbound links here are affiliate or referral links. Follow one, start a treatment or buy a product, and we may earn a commission — your price stays exactly the same. That money pays for the research, and what we write about any product — and the price you pay — are the same either way. Want the specifics? Read the full disclosure.

at_a_glance

price: The affiliate landing page advertises visits "from $37". We could not reproduce that figure anywhere.
what you pay: Not a monthly product at all — Sesame sells appointments, not subscriptions. A new-patient telehealth visit swept across ten states ranged $46 to $50: California $49, Texas $46, New York $49, Florida $47, Illinois $47, Georgia $49, Arizona $46, Wyoming $50, Montana $47, Alaska $50. The floor is $46. An online skin consult is $46 in Texas and $50 in California; an in-person skin consult is $130 in Texas; a testosterone lab test is $60 in Texas with no listings at all in California.
pharmacy: None, and that is structural rather than an omission: Sesame does not dispense anything. It sells appointments with independent clinicians, and any prescription written goes to a pharmacy you choose. The trade-off runs both ways — there is no compounding facility to name, and equally no company standing behind the medicine you end up with.
states: There is no single state list, because licensure is per clinician rather than per company: what is available depends on who has listed in your state. That is a real answer rather than an evasion, but it means eligibility and price are both discovered by searching rather than by reading a page.
on our index: Not ranked. Not ranked on /best-nad and not eligible to be. Sesame is a marketplace of independent clinicians rather than a clinic, and its own typeahead API returns an empty array for NAD+, sermorelin, peptide, glutathione, B-12 and longevity — every one of them. Its "anti-aging treatment" category resolves to dermatology skin consults. It is surfaced only inside the clearly labeled GLP-1 adjacent module on our NAD+-for-weight-loss page, and it is reviewed here because we link to it and are paid when a reader books through that link.

verdict

The short version

Sesame Care is the odd entry in this module because the thing it does well is not the thing a reader of this site arrives looking for. It is a two-sided marketplace: independent clinicians list their own cash prices for appointments, and Sesame takes the booking. That produces something no other row on this index offers: a per-clinician RATING and REVIEW COUNT beside the credentials, so you can compare the individual you are booking. Named clinicians alone are not rare — Willow publishes 33 physician bio pages and Found names five — but no other row here publishes what other patients thought of the specific person you will see. What it does not produce is any of the medicine this site covers. We queried Sesame's own typeahead API for NAD+, sermorelin, peptide, glutathione, B-12 and longevity and every single one returned an empty array; "NAD" returns a beta-blocker and doctors whose surnames begin Nad. The one relevant thing it does sell is GLP-1: Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro, Rybelsus and Foundayo, prescribed through a booked visit. Treat it as a way to get a cheap consult, not as a store.

evidence

What the evidence for this route shows

The route question this site exists to ask does not apply to Sesame, and the reason is worth stating precisely because the site's own category names invite the opposite conclusion. We queried Sesame's public typeahead API directly: NAD+, sermorelin, peptide, B-12, glutathione, longevity and BPC-157 each returned an empty array. "NAD" returned nadolol, a beta-blocker, plus clinicians surnamed Nad-something. "Methylene blue" returned a doctor named Blue. "IV therapy" returned couples therapy and individual therapy. "Vitamin B12" returned a vitamin D lab test. And "anti-aging treatment" — the category a longevity reader would click — resolves to online and in-person SKIN consults, with Sesame's own page header calling it anti-aging skincare. So there is no NAD+ route here to weigh against the evidence, and nobody should read that category label as longevity medicine. What Sesame does sell that has trial evidence behind it is access to a clinician who can prescribe a brand-name GLP-1, and those are the FDA-approved products the trials actually tested rather than compounded copies of them.

pricing

What it actually costs

advertised: The affiliate landing page advertises visits "from $37". We could not reproduce that figure anywhere.
you pay: Not a monthly product at all — Sesame sells appointments, not subscriptions. A new-patient telehealth visit swept across ten states ranged $46 to $50: California $49, Texas $46, New York $49, Florida $47, Illinois $47, Georgia $49, Arizona $46, Wyoming $50, Montana $47, Alaska $50. The floor is $46. An online skin consult is $46 in Texas and $50 in California; an in-person skin consult is $130 in Texas; a testosterone lab test is $60 in Texas with no listings at all in California.
the catch: The $37. It is the number on the page our link points at, and it did not appear in any of the ten states we checked — the cheapest listing anywhere in that sweep was $46. Sesame's own inventory exposes a member-rate field that returns nothing without an account, so $37 may well be a Sesame Plus price; if it is, the landing page does not say so. A headline price that requires a membership the page never mentions is a headline price a reader cannot act on. The deeper structural point is that on a marketplace there is no such thing as "Sesame's price": each clinician sets a fee, so any single figure is a snapshot of one listing in one state.

Other money you will meet

Prices are per appointment, not per month — there is no subscription to cancel
Each clinician sets their own fee, so the figure moves by state and by listing
A Sesame Plus membership exists and its rates are not visible without an account
Cancellation is handled per appointment rather than as a plan

fit

Who this is and is not for

Buy it if

You want a cash-price telehealth visit from about $46 with no membership or subscription behind it
You want to see the individual clinician's credentials, specialty and review count before booking — Sesame publishes them, which is unusual
You want a prescriber conversation about a brand-name GLP-1 rather than a compounded subscription
You want a one-off appointment rather than a recurring plan of any kind

Look elsewhere if

You want NAD+, sermorelin, glutathione, B-12, methylene blue or IV therapy — Sesame's own search returns nothing for any of them
You expect "anti-aging treatment" on Sesame to mean longevity medicine: it resolves to dermatology skin consults
You want a single price you can plan around — each clinician sets their own, and it varies by state
You want the "$37" the affiliate landing page advertises, which we could not reproduce in any of ten states

included

What is inside the price

consult: The consult IS the product. You are buying a clinician's time at a listed cash price, not a medication plan.
labs: Sold as individual line items rather than bundled — a testosterone lab test lists at $60 in Texas, and has no listings at all in California, which is the marketplace model doing exactly what it does.
follow-ups: Booked and paid for individually, like the first visit. Nothing recurs.
human support: The strongest disclosure on the site: each clinician's credentials, specialty, rating and review count are published on the listing, so the human is identified before you pay rather than assigned afterwards.
supplies: Not applicable — Sesame does not dispense.
shipping: Not applicable for the consult; any prescription is filled by a pharmacy of your choosing.

the_knock

What they would rather you skipped

The price on the landing page our link points at does not reproduce. It advertises visits "from $37"; we swept ten states through Sesame's own listing inventory and the cheapest new-patient telehealth visit anywhere was $46 — California $49, Texas $46, New York $49, Florida $47, Illinois $47, Georgia $49, Arizona $46, Wyoming $50, Montana $47, Alaska $50. Sesame's inventory does expose a member-price field, which returns nothing without an account, so the likeliest explanation is that $37 is a Sesame Plus rate. If that is right, the page advertises a membership price without mentioning the membership, and we could not confirm it either way. The second thing worth saying is about the category names rather than the prices, and it is the one that would actually cost a reader of this site an afternoon: "anti-aging treatment" on Sesame is dermatology. Clicking it takes a longevity shopper to online and in-person skin consults, and Sesame's own header calls the section anti-aging skincare. Nothing about that is deceptive on Sesame's terms — a dermatologist is an anti-aging clinician in the ordinary sense of the phrase — but it means a reader arriving from a page about NAD+ will find acne and eczema consults behind a label that sounds like the thing they came for. We are paid a commission when a reader books through our link, and there is no version of this review in which the honest headline is not that Sesame sells none of the medicine this site covers.

And the rest

It sells no NAD+, no peptide, no glutathione, no B-12 and no IV therapy — its own search API returns an empty result for every one of those terms
The "from $37" on the page our link points at did not reproduce in any of ten states; the floor we found was $46
"Anti-aging treatment" resolves to dermatology skin consults, which a longevity reader will not expect
There is no such thing as a single Sesame price: each independent clinician sets their own fee, and it varies by state and by listing
No state list exists, because licensure is per clinician — eligibility is discovered by searching
It dispenses nothing, so there is no company standing behind whatever medication is prescribed
This site earns a commission when a reader books through this link
