Consumer telehealth · Online opioid addiction treatment
QuickMD
QuickMD is a telehealth practice that treats opioid use disorder with Suboxone and also offers care for kratom and 7-OH dependence, menopause, weight loss, mental health, and urgent care, with $99 visits and no insurance required.
Strong fit
- Adults with opioid use disorder who need a same-day Suboxone prescription
- Uninsured patients who want a flat visit price
- Patients who want phone or video visits on any day of the week
Weak fit
- Patients who want insurance to pay for visits
- Patients who want the same clinician at every visit
- Anyone who needs inpatient detox or residential care
Bottom line
QuickMD calls itself the largest telemedicine provider of opioid use disorder care, and it sells $99 same-day visits with no insurance needed. It suits patients who need to start or keep Suboxone fast and pay cash. Insured patients who want their plan to cover visits and counseling may do better with Bicycle Health or Ophelia.

QuickMD is used mostly by adults with opioid use disorder who need to start or continue Suboxone without waiting for an in-person clinic. A patient books online, meets a licensed clinician by phone or video, and can have the prescription sent to a local pharmacy the same day. The company also treats 7-OH and kratom dependence and offers menopause hormone therapy, weight loss, mental health care, and urgent care.
QuickMD keeps its pricing simple and cash-only. Every addiction treatment visit is $99 with no insurance, referral, or prior authorization, and the medication is paid separately at the pharmacy, where insurance or discount programs can apply. Bicycle Health, by comparison, bills more than 300 insurance plans or charges $249 a month to self-pay patients, plus the prescription.
The closest competitors are Bicycle Health, Ophelia, Boulder Care, Workit Health, and Groups Recover Together.
Dr. Talib Omer founded QuickMD, which launched in 2019 and is based in Santa Monica, California. Ryan Lissack, a software entrepreneur who was chief technology officer of Maker Studios, became chief executive in July 2024. On October 13, 2026 the company said it had passed 2 million patient visits, more than 500,000 of them in 2026, and that it reaches 44 states and Washington, D.C., with nearly 200 clinicians.
The complaints center on pharmacy and licensing problems. Several patients describe prescriptions written by a clinician not licensed in their state, which pharmacies refused to fill, and others report late visits and slow live chat. A reviewer who says he is a former QuickMD physician wrote on Trustpilot that the model does too little to help patients taper off medication.
Federal rules do not allow early Suboxone refills, so QuickMD's FAQ asks patients to book the next visit several days before running out.
