Dear Mommajess: Sorry it has taken me so long to reply to your post. I have not been on this forum for several weeks.

You pose some quite interesting questions - NOT dumb at all. Since my answers are quite lengthy, I am sending them to you via e-mail. Anyone else on this forum who wishes to view the reply can request them through my e-mail.

My replies to each question are quite varied since I have both worked as a medical assistant, and instructed medical assistant students.

If you are compassionate, understanding, patient and have the will to work with the human body, medical assisting will be a very rewarding career for you.

Good luck with all your endeavors!!!
