Apex MD vs Heally
The verdict
Apex MD takes it — 71.8/100 to 70.9/100, but only just.
Apex MD grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Apex MD is a US virtual telemedicine platform licensed in all 50 states that prescribes compounded GLP-1 medications for weight loss. Heally is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
