Mrs. Amber has been by far the best teacher i’ve had and i give her a round of applause for handling our whole class for the entire course by herself and still being able to conform to everyone’s different learning styles so we all succeed. She was the absolute best i actually learned, felt supported, and was very hands on. i was able to absorb and understand what she was teaching each week. I really felt set up for success and felt confident in my skills when it came down to doing my finals. we did have a substitute step in for Mrs. Amber as she had something come up for one class and it was a drag. said teacher made class absolutely dreadful. I DIDNT LEARN class wasn’t engaging at all. it was by far the WORST class out of the whole course.

San Antonio Medical Assistant School is a hands-on learning program. We take a different approach from traditional education. Our classes take place in a medical office rather than a classroom, with a hands-on component to every part of our course. Classes begin with a lecture and discussion, but most of the class time is spent in labs learning the essential techniques of medical assisting. When our students graduate and begin their career, they feel at home in a medical office.
As a newly hired Medical Assistant, your employer will expect you to know the basic skills of medical assisting. Those fundamental skills are exactly what we focus on teaching our students. Our custom-designed curriculum sets students up for success by covering precisely what doctors will expect them to know.
When you graduate from any medical assisting school you receive a certificate of completion. Many students ask if they can expect to make a higher starting salary if they attend a longer program. The starting salary for a Medical Assistant does not depend on how long you spent in school or how much you paid for your schooling.
