Joi’s Answer

Depends if your in a hospital, clinic, or private practice. But I suggest you look into allied health programs as a rad tech, {not limited}. It's only 2 years, and starting pay is around $45-50 an hour. Way more money for the training. And many advancements to go onto if you choose to. There's a huge shortage right now. You can make $2500 a week traveling

I was a medical assistant for almost 11 years, it is very fast paced, think about it as the doctor needs you to take medical history and vitals before they see the patient. I loved it, n the other hand, in Kansas it doesn't pay well for all you have to do. Good luck

Medical Assistant positions will vary greatly depending on where you are working, including hospital vs clinic vs office, etc. Also, locations in certain parts of a city may be at a higher level than a more rural area. It is an excellent field and something that only someone working in that field and in a particular area can truly answer.

Medical assistant job involves a lot of duties in both hospitals, clinics, health centers etc. Most times, it only gets better when you advance into other medical careers which are highly proficient.
Medical assistant jobs can be good for beginners. Gradually, you will be more exposed into what areas you may actually feel is better for you.
