The score, part by part

Red flag

  • Site review count we could not match to a platform

    Viking's site says "OVER 1000+ 5 Star Reviews" without naming where they were left, and we could not match it to any review platform (read 6 November 2026). Its Trustpilot profile has no reviews.

    vikingalternative.com

The cap of 60 applies while this flag stands, though the score is already under it. Capped providers are left out of our best lists and cannot buy the sponsored spot.

  1. True monthly cost

    10 of 30

    $150.00 a month in the first year. Not a firm price, plus a required charge with no published price.

    The top of the site's 'Most Viking patients pay $100-$150 a month' range, which is $150. Required lab tests are listed without a price, so we halved the cost points. 1–3

  2. What the price includes

    0 of 20

    • No: Medication
    • No: Ongoing lab tests
    • No: Follow-up visits
    • No: Supplies and shipping
    • No: An at-home lab option

    Nothing is itemised as included on the pages we read. Blood draws are done at Quest or LabCorp. 4–8

  3. Treatment options

    8 of 10

    • Yes: Injection
    • No: Cream or gel
    • Yes: Oral
    • No: Pellets
    • No: Troche
    • Yes: An option meant to preserve fertility

    Injection and Kyzatrex oral testosterone. hCG, gonadorelin, clomiphene and enclomiphene are offered, and we count them as fertility options. 9–12

  4. Transparency

    6 of 15

    • No: A firm monthly price
    • No: Every required extra priced
    • Yes: A list of the states served
    • Yes: A named clinician leading care

    Viking gives a price range, not a firm price, and lab tests are not priced. It serves 47 states. Dr. Ana Lisa Carr, MD, is named as medical director. 3,13–15

  5. Public reputation

    15 of 25

    No Trustpilot reviews. Better Business Bureau A+.

    Its Trustpilot profile is unclaimed with no reviews, so we give a neutral 10 of the 20 Trustpilot points. Better Business Bureau A+, with a file opened in 2023. 16–19

The five parts add up to 39, which is under the cap of 60, so the cap does not change the score.
