Prevention, a conviction before it is an activity
The Medisur adventure began in 2015, driven by Mr. Dailloux, with a simple ambition: to empower everyone to take charge of their own health, independently and with complete confidentiality. To achieve this, partnerships were forged with leading laboratories in Canada and China, resulting in a range of self-tests that have been available in pharmacies for over ten years.
One conviction: prevention is not limited to one subject, nor to one audience.
Our core business—designing and distributing individual screening solutions—was built in 2015 around some twenty products covering a range of needs: colorectal screening, fertility, menopause, vitamin D monitoring, and prostate health. That same year, our laboratory expertise also led us to develop saliva tests for drug and alcohol detection. By 2016, this work had solidified our position as a leading French laboratory in this field.
On December 16, 2016, the French Council of State reminded companies of their obligation to implement prevention and safety measures to protect their employees, particularly regarding the fight against addiction. We leveraged our expertise in screening to design a comprehensive support program aligned with these requirements: it was with this in mind that Medisur Formation, our Qualiopi-certified training organization, was founded in 2017.
In 2019, a pivotal step was taken with the creation of our Health Hub, enabling us to offer companies broader support: quality of life and working conditions (QWL), prevention of psychosocial risks, and awareness campaigns adaptable to key events such as Breast Cancer Awareness Month (October) or Movember. More recently, in light of the fact that more than a quarter of road accidents are linked to the use of psychoactive substances, we created a dedicated road safety unit.
A 360° strategy, all serving the same objective
This diversity of topics is not a lack of focus; it is a deliberate strategy, built step by step since 2015. We are convinced that effective prevention plays out at every level of the chain—from the company developing its internal policy, to the distributor making our products accessible, to the insurer emphasizing prevention in its offerings, and finally to the individual simply concerned about their own health or that of a loved one. Today, we are one of the few players in the French market able to offer a comprehensive 360° service, combining the provision of technical devices designed in-house with dedicated training programs—without relying on a third-party supplier for our testing or an external organization for our training.
A requirement that does not change
What hasn't changed since 2015 is our commitment to the reliability of our systems, the rigor of our regulatory monitoring, and the quality of our training. Whether we're addressing an HSE manager developing a screening protocol, a pharmacist advising a patient, or a company seeking to secure its high-risk workstations, our ambition remains the same: to provide reliable answers to questions that are sometimes difficult to ask.
I am proud of the progress our teams have made since the creation of Medisur, and convinced that this 360° approach to prevention is the right answer to the health and safety challenges that companies and individuals alike face today.
