About TouchCare Method | Physician-Led GLP-1 Weight Loss Program
Our Story

Medicine Meets Method.

TouchCare Method was built on a simple belief: GLP-1 medication is a powerful tool — but real, lasting weight loss requires so much more. We built the clinical infrastructure to make that happen.

Built to Bridge the Gap in GLP-1 Care

TouchCare Method is a high-touch, physician-led weight management program designed specifically to support patients on GLP-1 medications. We exist because we saw a critical gap: patients were being prescribed GLP-1 medications without the nutritional guidance, exercise support, or behavioral coaching needed to make results last.

Developed by a team of board-certified physicians, registered dietitians, and sports scientists, our program delivers the complete clinical infrastructure that GLP-1 therapy deserves — personalized meal plans, muscle-preserving exercise programming, medication management, and dedicated health coaching, all in one app.

We don't just help you lose weight. We help you keep it off.

Founder & Chief Medical Officer

Dr. Elizabeth Sharp Edens, MD, DABOM, IFMCP is a board-certified physician in both obesity medicine and functional medicine — two disciplines that together form the clinical backbone of TouchCare Method. With decades of experience treating complex weight and metabolic health cases, Dr. Sharp Edens recognized early on that GLP-1 medications, while transformative, were only one piece of the puzzle.

She founded TouchCare Method — under the umbrella of Health Meets Wellness (HMW) — to deliver the comprehensive support structure that GLP-1 patients need and deserve: personalized nutrition, evidence-based exercise, and real human coaching, wrapped around physician-managed medication care.

Dr. Sharp Edens has been featured in Vogue, Goop, Healthline, Well+Good, Women's World, and First for Women as a leading voice in physician-led weight management and GLP-1 therapy.

"Our app fills the gap between provider visits by delivering personalized nutrition and exercise support that complements GLP-1 therapy — driving stronger, more sustainable weight loss outcomes."

Her approach blends evidence-based medicine with real-world practicality — because lasting results don't come from extremes. They come from a system that works with your life.
