Full Review
Launched in 2021 by Cyrus Massoumi — who previously built and led Zocdoc — Dr. B applies a marketplace-style playbook to direct-to-consumer telehealth: a flat $19 async consult with no membership, covering more than 30 conditions from hair loss (finasteride, dutasteride, minoxidil) to rosacea, melasma, acne, and eczema. Rather than shipping medication itself by default, Dr. B typically routes prescriptions to a patient's local pharmacy with a discount card that brings cash prices well below list — generic finasteride from about $27.58 and dutasteride from about $45.72 for a 90-day supply. The company has drawn national press attention (New York Times, TIME) for its low-price positioning and operates as a Public Benefit Corporation that says it has provided over 25,000 free consultations to patients facing financial hardship. As a five-year-old company, Dr. B has a shorter public track record than incumbents, and independent patient-review volume is limited relative to larger competitors.
