Hi! Im new here so bre with me. Well i am considering going to school to become a medical asistant. I was just wondering if someone could give me job discription and some information regarding this career. I have a few questions like..is going through the education in school difficult? Like the tests..hw..etc. Also, are tattoos and piercings acceptable? I have 1 noticeable tattoo which is on my forearm..and i also have a few piercings..i am a little nervous..well..alot..about all this i hope everything goes smoothly and i can find a decent job at a clinic whenever i graduate. I rather work at a clinic/ physicians office...i feel like it would be a better place to work at since you will see most of the poeple that go there more than once so that makes it a little more comfortable since youll have an idea of why theyre going and about medications they take..etc. I hope evrything is as i imagine it.
