About us
At Zencape Health, we believe everyone should have access to personalized, quality care. Our products are designed from the ground-up to acknowledge and support the lived experience of our patients, many of whom have been historically overlooked or dismissed by traditional healthcare systems.
On average, it takes 10 years for a patient with chronic pelvic conditions to reach either a diagnosis or get access to care — more time than it takes to sail around the world!
1 in 4 people who menstruate have missed out on work or social events because of period pain.
Our Stories
-
“My journey started with hours spent in the nurse's office as a kid in school and led to decades of seeking care for debilitating period pain. I started Zencape Health because it was what I needed each time I was told my pain was normal."
-Abi, Founder & CEO
-
“I dealt with years of mysterious pain & countless tearful doctor appointments before I was finally diagnosed with endometriosis. At Zencape, we know what it’s like to try to access care and be met with constant dismissal, dead-ends, and wasted money. ”
-Tara, Director of Product Design
A note about equity
Our care philosophy centers historically marginalized communities. We design with intention for our gender-diverse patients, who are historically underserved in medical care, our patients of color, who are often dismissed by traditional medical systems, and others who have been let down by their healthcare providers. Nearly a hundred community contributors have participated in our product development process to co-create with intention and inclusivity. We are committed to building an equitable healthcare platform where the people we serve are heard, supported, believed, and treated with respect.
We are a women-led, patient-first founding team building the care platform we’ve needed in our own journeys. Along the way, we’ve assembled a world-class team of providers, technologists, and leaders.
