The verdict

Defy Medical takes it — 60.2/100 to 57.3/100.

Defy Medical grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Defy Medical is a long-running telehealth clinic, best known for hormone replacement, that also prescribes GLP-1 medications for weight loss.

We may earn a commission if you start care through some of these links, at no extra cost to you. It never moves the WeighScore, which is the weighted average of the six factors shown for every provider, and what we write about a provider is the same either way. See our disclosure.
