The verdict

Winner: Invigor Medical

Invigor Medical takes it with a higher Verdict Score — 88/100 to 87/100 (grade B+ vs B+). Patients who want GLP-1 care alongside a wider wellness/hormone program. Effecty still earns its place — patients who want a verified provider that can pivot to brand-name if compounded supply tightens.

Neither of these is our overall #1. That title goes to CoreAge Rx (94/100) — the most honest middle of the market: nationwide access, both molecules at one flat, no-surprise price.
