The verdict

Independent Wellness takes it — 68.2/100 to 64.4/100.

Independent Wellness grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Telehealth wellness clinic offering GLP-1 medications on a 4-week billing cycle.

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.

Independent Wellness

Graded #152 · C

Strengths

  • Both semaglutide and tirzepatide available
  • Compounded GLP-1 access

Where it loses points

  • Limited public information on program details
Wisp

Graded #243 · C

Strengths

  • Broad GLP-1 menu — branded injectables (Wegovy, Zepbound, Saxenda) plus a compounded sublingual option
  • LegitScript certified with named board-certified providers (Dr. Shannon Chatham DO, Andrea Sleeth WHNP-BC)
  • Unusually candid about the sublingual option's limits, noting effectiveness in patients may vary

Where it loses points

  • The $99/mo tirzepatide figure is a consultation-and-care subscription, not the medication: Zepbound is filled at a pharmacy of your choice at its own cost, which Wisp does not publish
  • The compounded semaglutide option is sublingual drops, which Wisp itself describes as less effective than injection
  • Brand-name access is a prescription, not a dispensed product, so the drug cost is outside anything quoted here

Also worth a look
