The Enterprise Business Center of Louisiana’s outreach coordinator had the pleasure of sitting down with Joseph ‘Joey’ and Samantha, the owners of Geaux Diagnostics, for an engaging and insightful conversation. The duo discusses how they recognized a gap in the market for accessible and convenient drug testing, fingerprinting, and other diagnostic services. What started as an idea sparked by their own experiences has turned into a thriving diagnostic service that prioritizes convenience, efficiency, and accessibility.
Joey and Samantha shared how their journey began—Joey, having worked in the oil field, saw firsthand how long wait times for drug screenings disrupted work schedules, while Samantha experienced challenges finding fingerprinting services for employment purposes. Realizing the need for a more accessible option, they took a leap of faith and started Geaux Diagnostics. Throughout the interview, their energy and excitement about their business made for a great conversation, and it was inspiring to hear how they turned a challenge into an opportunity.
One of the most interesting parts of our discussion was learning how they navigated their biggest challenge—deciding whether to remain fully mobile or establish a physical location. They ultimately found a perfect home at the Enterprise Business Center of Louisiana, which has allowed them to offer both in-house and mobile services. Now, they provide everything from drug testing and fingerprinting to DNA tests and early gender reveal screenings. Their ability to adapt and grow is what sets them apart, and they hinted at exciting plans for the future, including a dedicated diagnostic van that will take their mobile services to the next level.
The enthusiasm, drive, and commitment of Joey and Samantha to helping others is truly admirable. As they continue to expand Geaux Diagnostics, their story serves as a great reminder that success comes from recognizing a need, taking action, and staying persistent. We can’t wait to see what’s next for them, and we’re grateful they chose the Enterprise Business Center of Louisiana as their business home!
