My Experience: A Career As A Medical Assistant

When i graduate from Bay state College i will be a Medical Assistant, As there is many places for a medical assistant to work, i have yet to fully decide which area of medicine i would like to work but i am more leaning towards a hospital setting. I think i would get a better experience as they are always full of vary of patients. What made me decide to become a medical assistant was to help people, i have always found joy in helping. It is a good feeling to know you are helping patients when they don’t have a strong support system from family or you are the reason someone is having a good or better day. Also you are helping the doctor be able to prepare and preform for the procedure that is needed to be done.

From my own experience, when
i was pregnant with my son i had a lot of one on one time with the medical assistants as i had to see them every week, because my doctor could not do all of the appointments. If it was not for the medical assistants support and thoughtfulness i never would have made it through my hard pregnancy. Although even after my son was conceived, they still gave me the support i needed, not because it was their job profession but because they was in a career they loved and enjoyed what their job consists. Becoming a Medical assistants lets you learn the basics, and gets your foot in the door, you get to experience and learn even after you graduate. It gives you a chance to see if you would like to proceed as a medical assistant or pursue a career as a nursing. Medical Assisting is a growing feild and very much needed, it is a start to a career compared to where i was a year ago, and it will help me provide for my family.
