A shocking story about "research use only" peptides led to a near fatal hospital visit. This experience revealed the dark side of compounding pharmacies and inspired the creation of a platform that ends the operational nightmares for clinic owners. In episode 67 of The Nico Misleh Podcast, host Nico Misleh talks with Jeff Sakamoto, the visionary behind Scripts. They discuss the hidden risks in the wellness industry, from pharmacies underfilling prescriptions to the workflow issues with software like LifeFile. Jeff shares how his one stop shop for HRT, peptides, and GLP-1s gives clinicians a trusted partner for all 50 states, helping them focus on patient care and business growth instead of logistics.
