Sidney Luu, District Phlebotomy Manager, One Medical Group

I just completed my second week as the lead lab assistant at Palo Alto Medical Center. I’ve got nothing but love for Career Services – thanks for everything.

Nick P., Phlebotomy Technician Graduate

What I liked most about the medical assisting program is the hands-on learning. Mrs. Earby made it fun, and she told us about her real-life experience working as a medical assistant. I always looked forward to going to class. BAMA helped me reach my goal, and shaped me to be the best medical assistant I could be. I’m now an medical assistant at San Francisco Critical Care Medical Group.

If you’re looking for a fast and fun program that will change your life, check out ÿÈÕ´óÈü. ÿÈÕ´óÈü is a fantastic school. The professor is amazing and very helpful. This program has been an outstanding experience for me. Not only did I learn about the basics of being a Medical Assistant, Phlebotomist, and an EKG Technician, but I was able to create strong bonds with the great students and staff. ÿÈÕ´óÈü is worthwhile and I highly recommend it to anybody that’s looking for a brand new and great change in their life.

Harpreet S., BAMA Graduate

The knowledge and skills I learned at ÿÈÕ´óÈü have helped me tremendously with furthering my career. I obtained a position immediately upon completing the course. The staff was patient and helpful. The instructor was extremely knowledgeable and was able to devote a lot of time with students individually. I would recommend ÿÈÕ´óÈü to anyone interested in breaking into healthcare.

Nicholas L., BAMA Graduate

Before coming to ÿÈÕ´óÈü, I was a Project Manager with an internet company. The program was short enough to make it a great fit for me to start a new career in the medical field. I was very happy with the instructors for my Medical Assistant program. Everyone was friendly and willing to help out. ÿÈÕ´óÈü also helped with finding a job with their interview workshops, job feeds through email, as well as by having prospective employers come in to interview students. At the end of the program, I was able to get a job at the clinic with which I did my externship.

William O., BAMA Graduate

I have good news to report. I’m now employed at Quest Diagnostics and IMS Paramed. I couldn’t have done it without Career Services and the employer spotlights you host. Thank you.
