Most find medical assistant employment with private physicians, but there are many other areas where they work also. In physical and occupational therapy, hospitals, public health, social work, teaching, laboratories, and management. These areas will no doubt also expand to others in the health care field.
A medical assistant and a nurse are very different, a nurse or doctor gives the orders to a medical assistant, and their license is different. At the present point in time, there are too few medical assistants available, in fact you could say that there is a shortage of this important part of a medical team. To get an idea about the job, you could shadow someone on a day at work, to see if you might like to follow this career path.
