Head-to-head dispatch
Independent Wellness vs WeightRx
Two GLP-1 providers, one scorecard. Both are graded on the same six Desk Score dimensions — here is how they stack up, and which one fits you.
Desk Score
Telehealth wellness clinic offering GLP-1 medications on a 4-week billing cycle.
Marked down on: Limited public information on program details
Desk Score
WeightRx is a telehealth provider publishing compounded semaglutide at $250/mo and compounded tirzepatide at $83/mo.
Marked down on: The $83 monthly rate is advertised as '$83/month ($997/year)', which is twelve months of it — no month-to-month rate is separately published, and the terms state that a rate is locked for its full term
Independent Wellness takes this head-to-head with the higher Desk Score, 80/100 (B−) against 66/100 (C) for WeightRx. WeightRx still holds its ground where its strengths line up with yours.
