Somira Health vs TeleClinic
The verdict
Somira Health takes it — 62.5/100 to 60.8/100, but only just.
Somira Health grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Somira Health is a self-pay telehealth platform that connects you with independent licensed providers and compounding pharmacies for GLP-1 weight loss. TeleClinic 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.

- Simple, fast online intake reviewed by a licensed provider; no insurance required
- Both weekly compounded GLP-1 options offered: semaglutide and tirzepatide

- State-availability list is not published
- No LegitScript certification displayed
- New, thin platform with limited public detail on the provider network, lab monitoring, or ongoing support
Graded #313 · C

- LegitScript certified with flat, published monthly pricing, free shipping, and no insurance required

Where it loses points
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide only — no brand-name GLP-1 (Wegovy or Zepbound) option

- Not available in California, South Carolina, or New Jersey
