Dr. Zina A. Berry

Co-Founder & Chief Executive Officer, Z-Loupes, Inc.

Dr. Zina A. Berry is the visionary founder and CEO of Z-Loupes, a next-generation medical device company transforming the way dental and surgical professionals see, feel, and perform in practice. With over three decades of clinical excellence and entrepreneurial leadership, Dr. Berry brings a bold, data-informed mindset to solving persistent ergonomic and operational challenges in healthcare. Her work is rooted in personal experience—years of wearing traditional loupes that left her with chronic strain and the nagging question: Why isn’t there a better option?

After scaling and successfully exiting multiple dental practices—including growing Berry Good Dental Care into a million-dollar, multi-provider operation—Dr. Berry turned her attention to innovation. She launched Z-Loupes in 2025 with a clear goal: to develop ergonomic, lightweight, and stylish loupes that actually support practitioner health. Featuring gesture-controlled illumination and a patented neck battery system that reduces facial strain, Z-Loupes blends smart engineering with user-centered design.

Beyond her work at Z-Loupes, Dr. Berry is the co-founder of the Dental Leadership Academy and a published voice in Dental Entrepreneur Woman magazine. Her career bridges clinical care, business development, and mentorship—reflecting a lifelong mission to improve the lives of both patients and providers through innovation, empowerment, and purposeful design.
