I absolutely LOVED my experience at the Wichita Falls Medical Assistant School! I had two fantastic instructors who encouraged me and pushed me to succeed! My only complaints were I signed up for a 24 week course and found out I was in an 18 week course my first day of class. My academic advisor changed at least three times, and after graduation there is little to no assistance for finding a job. It was the best experience and I would recommend this program to anyone but be mindful of these possibilities. Read less

I attended WFMAS from July 2020-Feb 2021! I absolutely loved the instructors as they were patient and cared about us and our education. It was new to us all with Covid and some of our class being virtual and some in the classroom/lab.. but our instructors rolled with it and made it fun! So thankful for them! Read less

The instructors were helpful and helped the whole class succeed in anyway they could. It was only 6 months and worked beautifully with my factory schedule. I was able to have a full time job with added overtime and still do these classes, so there isn't much room for excuses if you're thinking about taking the step to do this! Can't beat the price either! Payments we're flexible and I was able to pay off my schooling early if I wanted (I did!). The rest of the school staff is but a phone call or email away and have a vast amount of knowledge and resources to help you even further. One thing I always get asked is why I left my factory job to be a medical assistant because the pay is significantly lower than what I make now. I tell them this has been a great stepping stone to help launch me in to the medical field I desire (nutrition) and factory jobs are a dime a dozen. It's good money, but it's not a career. THIS is a building block to helping you get on the path to your career! I have ZERO regrets and am loving every minute! Read less
