great workplace
Medical Receptionist (Former Employee), Modesto, CA – February 26, 2013
Pros: getting experience in the medical field
Cons: short breaks
A typical day at work, signing in patients in/out in a timely manner,
I learned that I enjoy helping people,
The hardest part of the job was, of the fews instances i experienced, seeing patients leave unhappy.
The most enjoyable part of my job was that i loved helping patients and knowing i could use my skills to help them and see them leave happy and – more... knowing the patients would come look for me for help,was awesome. – less

busy work area
Medical Assistant (Current Employee), Modesto, CA – January 30, 2013
I enjoy working for a pediatric office but every day is busy. My day consists of measuring patients' vital signs, administering medications, injections, collecting and preparing specimens for laboratory testing, EKG, perform quality controls, and schedule appointments. Team work is one thing my coworkers and I do.

Family oriented.
Medical Assistant (Former Employee), Modesto, CA – August 18, 2012
Pros: free lunches from reps
Cons: overtime needs approval.
A typical would be covering for lunch hour and evening clinic. I learned to process medical referrals and wound packing. My co-workers are friendly and helpful. Hardest part of the job was when electronic medical records was down and I had to record everything twice. The most enjoyable part of the job was working with a good group and physicians, nurses – more... and assistants that made work easy going. – less

Very production focused
Family Nurse Practitioner (Former Employee), Modesto, CA – June 19, 2012
Pros: the yearly educational allowance is quite generous.
Cons: too many patient, too little providers that are willing to work the extra hours.
The hardest part of the job is that it is very production focused, so that incentives for increased compensation are based on how many patients one see. Thus, the more patients a provider treats, the more cash bonus one receives. However, most providers are dedicated to the patients and community that they serve. The community in turn are very protective – more... of the providers. It benefits everyone. It is a decentralized system in that each clinic function on its own, but ran by the corporate office, administration located in the head office at Merced, CA. Great way to learn if one is in the big clinics, however, independence is important in the outlying clinics where you may be the only provider to see all patients. There is team work in the bigger clinics and co-workers seems to all get along. – less

very busy and fast paced work place
Medical Assistant (Current Employee), Newman, CA – June 1, 2012
Pros: paid time off and sick pay
Cons: short staffed alot, managment is very weak
My work day is very unpredictable I never know exactly what the day is going to throw my way. I usually get to work and prepare for the day ahead of me by reviewing schedule for the doctor and try to anticipate as much as I can to make the day flow better. I assist the doctor by calling patients, taking vitals,assisting in procedures, fax prescriptions, – more... and do some clerical work as well. – less
