Hi, I'm a Medical Assitant... If you livein Northern California. there is a school called Boston Reed College (www.bostonreedcollege.com) that I graduated from and it only took 4 months total. You receive a certificate in medical assistant and you are eligible to take the board exam to become certified. I recommended this school to a lot of people and they successful passed and are working at great places.

Also, there are other career institute schools, such as Western Career College or Bryman that offer M.A. programs, however they take, I think 12 months, and although these are great schools and have good reputations.. you do not have to attend school that long to become a M.A. it's just the same as going to a 4 month program (in my opinion). I know someone who graduated from a 12 mo program and someone else who graduated from a 4 mo program, and both are working at a hospital getting the same pay.

But it's really all up to you... good luck!
