About Modern Diagnostics
Improving healthcare access across Louisiana, one test at a time.
Our Mission
Modern Diagnostics was founded with a simple belief: every Louisianan deserves access to fast, accurate, and affordable diagnostic testing—regardless of where they live.
Too often, rural communities are underserved by healthcare infrastructure, forcing patients and providers to wait longer for critical test results. We're changing that.
By investing in advanced PCR molecular technology and establishing a presence in underserved areas, we're bringing the same quality of diagnostic testing available in major medical centers to communities throughout Louisiana.
Our Commitment
- Serving rural Louisiana parishes with the same quality available in major cities
- Investing in advanced molecular diagnostics technology
- Building lasting relationships with local healthcare providers
- Keeping healthcare dollars in Louisiana communities
- Providing transparent, competitive pricing
- Delivering results within 24-48 hours on most tests
Our Story
Modern Diagnostics began with a recognition of a significant gap in Louisiana's healthcare landscape. Rural communities—home to hardworking families, farmers, and small business owners—were often left waiting days or even weeks for diagnostic results that could be delivered in hours.
We saw an opportunity to make a difference. By combining cutting-edge PCR molecular technology with a commitment to serving underserved areas, we established our laboratory in Arcadia, Louisiana—strategically positioned to serve parishes that had long been overlooked by larger reference laboratories.
Today, we're proud to partner with healthcare providers across Louisiana who share our vision of accessible, high-quality healthcare for all. And we're just getting started.
