Train for a rewarding career as a medical assistant
Certified Medical Assistant
A medical assistant works in a physician's office, clinic, or other health care facility performing physician support services.

A CMA may work in an administrative capacity (scheduling appointments, coding and filing insurance forms, using computer applications, maintaining medical records) or in a clinical capacity (taking medical histories, preparing patients for examination, performing basic laboratory tests, instructing patients about medication or special diets) or both.
