Measured vs PlushCare
The verdict
Measured takes it — 74.8/100 to 74.5/100, but only just.
Measured grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Metabolic-health membership pairing GLP-1 treatment with 1:1 nutrition support and board-certified provider care. PlushCare is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
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.

Graded #64 · C
Strengths
