Short answer: Sprout Health scores higher on our rubric, 5.8/10 against 2.7/10. Full reasoning, pricing and the cases where the other one wins are below.

Sprout Health beats MEDGm overall, scoring 5.8/10 vs 2.7/10. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: MEDGm is from $179/mo; Sprout Health is $110/mo flat. Choose MEDGm for shoppers who want a compounded glp-1 with the price visible before intake and are comfortable that no clinician or pharmacy is named. Choose Sprout Health for users who want a dedicated care coordinator and locked titration pricing, and will judge service quality in month one.

MEDGm

#53 of 53
2.7/10

MEDGm is a telehealth company selling compounded GLP-1 injections from $179/mo and dissolvable tablets from $249/mo, with brand-name Zepbound, Wegovy and Ozempic offered as a membership plus an unpublished medication cost. The compounded prices are readable before intake and the not-FDA-approved disclosure is prominent, which is more than several better-known programs manage. The gap is verification: no clinician, no pharmacy and no accreditation is named anywhere on the site or in its terms.

Pros & Cons Compared

MEDGm

Pros

  • +Claims no accreditation it cannot support, which is rarer than it should be
  • +HSA/FSA accepted; free shipping stated

Cons

  • No medical director, prescribing clinician or medical group is named anywhere
  • No compounding pharmacy is named; the terms promise a partner list that the terms do not contain
  • Brand-name Zepbound, Wegovy and Ozempic are priced as a membership plus an unpublished medication cost, so no brand total can be compared
  • No lab panel is offered or required at any tier
  • The homepage claims 120,000+ patients on a domain registered 2026-04-08; we could not reconcile the two
  • A prepaid contracted term is non-refundable, and dispensed medication is never refundable
  • No third-party rating exists that we could locate and verify
