Our Midtown New York City location makes it easy for students in the tri-State area - Long Island, Westchester, Upstate NY, Orange County, Sullivan County, New Jersey,  Connecticut and Pensylvania.  We have had students from all over the United States study with us.  In fact, we have had several students from different foreign countries.  Our low tuition makes it a very good alternative.  Many students combine study with a vacation.  New York City is a great City to visit, and even a better one when you pursue an education, as a medical assistant - at the Manhattan Institute.

Below is an e-mail from a recent graduate.

I would like to thank the Manhattan Institute and its staff for all the hard work they put into my education.  My medical assistant class size was small, and I really enjoyed the personal attention that the doctors gave me. I read this really great article, about medical assistants duties.  I think it would be very helpful to post it on web site, or post in your school.

Thank you for your kind words.  I will pass it along to our staff.  I post the article with pleasure.

A Former student submits this article about the duties of Medical Assistants.

Medical assistant is an unlicensed multi-skilled health professional who offers administrative, clerical and technical support to the physician. Medical assistant provides services for front office, back office and other clinical laboratory areas. Medical assisting is a versatile career for men and women.

Medical assistant provides services in the offices of physicians, podiatrists, chiropractors and other health practicians to work smoothly. Medical assistants are not like physician assistants who diagnose and treat patients under direct control of physician. Duties of medical assistants depend on the specialty of practitioner. Medical assistants work under the control of department administrator.

They do several administrative duties like answering telephones, greeting patients, updating medical records of patients etc. Medical assistant plays significant role in the medical offices or clinical environments. They don’t make any decisions, about diseases, treatment or emergency plan of patients, independently. They are not allowed to perform independent practice.

Medical assistants perform administrative as well as clinical duties. Their clinical duties include explaining treatment procedures to the patients, preparing patients for medical examination, and supporting physician during examination. Sometimes they perform vital laboratory tests and disinfect medical instruments. They give instructions to the patients about medications or special diets.

Sometimes they purchase medical supplies for the clinic and examining room equipments and instruments. They usually work in clean and well-lighted environments. Some medical assistants work part time and many on regular basis.
