Small Steps Lead to Big Leap to Medical Transcription Career
When Patti Smith wanted to start a new life, she came to Allied Medical School.
After her divorce, Patti tried several careers, but none were what she wanted. She had always been interested in the medical field, though, and had once considered becoming a nurse. It was a friend who told her about how she could start a career in the medical field by training to become a medical transcriptionist through Allied Medical School.
Having a good friend by her side helped Patti take the first step. Patti also attributes her move to the people she spoke to at Allied Medical School.
"When I called, I always got very kind, courteous people to help me with my problem. They were always very nice and easy to talk to."
Patti chose Allied Medical School because of its superior credentials. She liked how they help students find a job when the Medical Transcription Program is complete.
The day she received her online Medical Transcription Course material in the mail, Patti decided she would take it one step at a time – one chapter at a time.
"Before I knew it, it was like I was completing a chapter every other day. And once I got started, I got on a roll and it all kind of clicked."
Patti liked how the material provided her the knowledge she’d need in her career. She liked the medical transcription practice exercises, with the kind of real-life examples she would face in her career.
"Allied was always very friendly and they always talked me through it. If I had any problems or something to vent about, they were always very kind and very helpful and encouraged me to keep going, not to give up."
Living in Wyoming, with a commute of 25 miles to the nearest community college, made taking the program at home an easy decision for Patti. She was also working, so completing the program at her own pace proved to be another benefit. In addition, she was glad that help was always available.
Now, Patti’s living her dream. She has a fulfilling career as a medical transcriptionist, and she just got a raise!
"Oh, I really like being where I am now. If I chose to work at home, I would, but I like being around people. I like working in the office atmosphere. Look how my life has just turned around; it’s just really awesome. I’m just so happy I love my job!"
You can build a future like Patti's by enrolling in Allied Medical School. One phone call can help you realize your dream of an at-home medical transcription job.
