Cancer is hard to treat.
It's easy to prevent.
Melio was created by doctors who saw too many patients arriving too late. We do prevention because the healthcare system doesn't.

Prevention saves lives.
The system forgot that.
Romania records over 104,000 new cancer cases every year. Nearly half are diagnosed at an advanced stage — when treatment options narrow dramatically. Not because there are no solutions. But because no one looked in time.

Tomorrow's treatment depends on today's prevention.
It started with the reality of patients
Dr. Ruslan Șcărabnîi is a thoracic surgery specialist. Throughout his career, he operated on patients with conditions that would have been easy to treat if discovered earlier. Patients who didn't know they should have been screened. That a plan exists. That preventive medicine isn't optional — it's a necessity.
Melio was born from this reality. Together with doctors from multiple specialties and experts from related fields — technology, medical data, ethics — we built a platform that puts prevention before treatment. Not from theory. From daily medical practice.
"The best patient is the one who never ends up at the surgeon."
Led by doctors.
Built for people.
Melio isn't a tech project with medical consultants. It's a medical project with tech support. The team keeps growing with specialists who share the same mission.

Interdisciplinary Team
Technology · Design · Strategy · Ethics
Melio wouldn't be possible without the people who translate medicine into clear and accessible experiences. The current team includes an AI specialist building data interpretation logic, a UI/UX specialist making the platform intuitive, a philosopher overseeing ethical coherence, and a marketer connecting the mission with people who need it.
We work with the best.
Melio doesn't replace medical infrastructure — it connects it. We've built partnerships with leaders in the fields that matter for prevention: lab testing and diagnostic imaging.
Synevo
The largest lab network in Romania
~200 clinical laboratories and collection points in 80 cities. Melio annual plan subscribers get their included blood tests done at any Synevo location nationwide — at no extra cost.
Affidea
Leader in high-performance medical imaging
MRI, CT, PET-CT, and advanced diagnostic imaging in 32 cities across Romania. Affidea is Melio's imaging partner — precision services, available wherever needed in your prevention plan.
No more excuses for skipping prevention.
vs. Public Healthcare
The public system is reactive and overloaded. Melio is proactive, available 24/7, and built exclusively for your preventive health.
vs. Private Clinics
Private clinics earn from tests. Melio earns from patients who take care of their health — with no incentive to recommend more than you need.
vs. Google
Google gives you generic information and creates fear. Melio gives you a personalized plan, verified by doctors, tailored to your risk profile.
Medical Oversight
Every recommendation comes from international guidelines.
Zero Conflict of Interest
We don't own clinics. We don't earn from tests.
Secure Data
Proper encryption. GDPR compliant.
We want every Romanian to have access to quality preventive medicine.
We started in major urban centers — where people already have access to private services, but without a personalized prevention guide. Now we're expanding.
More doctors, more specialties, more medical partners for tests and consultations. Soon, the app will include lab integrations, real-time personalized advice based on your daily activity, continuous health monitoring, and many more useful features to keep you healthy all the time.
The vision is clear: fewer patients with late diagnoses. More people living longer and better.
Join the movement for a healthier Romania.
Be among the responsible ones who choose prevention before illness appears.
