Apex MD vs Woodwork
The verdict
Woodwork takes it — 73/100 to 71.8/100, but only just.
Woodwork grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Woodwork is a men's health telehealth platform built by Grindr that offers compounded GLP-1 weight-loss medications alongside ED care, with a focus on serving gay and queer men. Apex MD is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
