ElitePhysiqMD vs Optimized Health
The verdict
ElitePhysiqMD takes it — 67.6/100 to 67.2/100, but only just.
ElitePhysiqMD grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. ElitePhysiqMD is a physician-led telehealth platform prescribing compounded semaglutide (from $145/mo) and tirzepatide (from $315/mo subscription) to patients in all 50 states. Optimized Health is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
