Everlywell: a closer look

At-home kits, in-lab Everywhere orders and the yearly Everlywell 360 panel at Quest. We searched the FDA warning-letter database on October 31, 2026 and found no letter naming Everlywell.

In its favour

  • Physician review included on home kits
  • Yearly 360 panel runs at Quest
  • Many single-purpose home kits

To weigh

  • Men's Health Test and part of the Women's Health Test use saliva, not a blood draw.
  • Everywhere adds a $15 clinician review fee to every request on top of the listed test price.
  • Memberships auto-renew until canceled.
  • Low Trustpilot score (2.7 from 544 reviews) despite high on-site product ratings.

Maximus: a closer look

Testosterone clinic's yearly lab panels; Optimal and Maximal, with many calculated scores. The FDA has sent Maximus a warning letter: The FDA warned Maximus on June 8, 2026 about false or misleading website claims for compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide. The letter does not concern lab testing.

In its favour

  • Low yearly price for the Optimal panel
  • Includes free testosterone and estradiol
  • At-home testosterone kit with no subscription

To weigh

  • No physician review of comprehensive panel results.
  • Metric counts are padded with calculated ratios; Optimal's ApoB is estimated by formula, not measured.
  • Lab company not named.
  • Renewal wording conflicts between the Maximal card and the FAQ.
