Testimonials of Medical Assistant Graduates Say it All


At Utah Career College, it is our goal to provide our students with high-value training and give them the support they need to accomplish their personal and professional goals. When we ask our graduates for feedback, we repeatedly hear the following:

We provide the personal attention every student needs to succeed

“Returning to school was frightening. But my experience at UCC has shown me the inner abilities I truly have. I have grown not only in an educational sense but personally as well. With each class I experienced a great feeling of personal growth. 

 If and when people ask me for my opinion of UCC, I tell them ‘Go for it,’ because at UCC, they treat you like you really matter and they are never too busy to help you achieve your goals. I would and will recommend UCC to all and anyone looking to improve their lives.”

Candace McNaught, Medical Assistant (AAS), 6/2008 Grad

Our Medical Assistant instructors are exceptional

“UCC has changed my life and given me a great new outlook on my future. I had big doubts about coming back to school, especially college. When I started, my first classes were medical terminology and anatomy. Thank goodness the teachers I had were very informational and interesting, because it kept me interested and inspired and those classes were most important in helping me know I chose the right career. As I continued the staff got to know me and kept me comfortable. I’ve found them all to be very helpful and informational.”

Alisha Kelson, Medical Assistant (Diploma), 6/2008 Grad

Small classes provide learning opportunities

 “I’ve enjoyed the small classes, where instructors can have one on one time with students. I’ve enjoyed my instructors. Going to school has helped me personally to have to overcome some personal issues I deal with daily that are very important to me.”

Vicki Trapane, Medical Assistant (Diploma), 6/2008 Grad

Medical Assisting is a fascinating and rewarding field

“This career has had an impact on my life – I have seen things that I would have never seen before. I have seen blood in the urine and cancer in a man’s prostate. I really like to do what I do because in that way I’m taking care of people seeking medical advice. By graduating as a Medical Assistant I am becoming somebody that makes me feel so proud of myself.”

Michelle Matus, Medical Assistant (AAS), 6/2008 Grad

Our program inspires students to accomplish great things

“The medical assisting program has helped encourage and inspire me in so many ways. I now know what an asset I am to society and I’ve learned all of these great traits in school. I accomplished something I didn’t know I could.”

Stephanie Ford, Medical Assistant (Diploma), 6/2008 Grad

Hands-on training means solid career preparation

“The Medical Assistant program has offered me tremendous hands-on experience. I enjoyed learning injections, blood draws, and lab microbiology. I feel prepared to serve as a Medical Assistant at this point and am grateful for my UCC education.” 

Kelley Boss, Medical Assistant (Diploma), 2008 Spring Graduate

Our program prepares students for life-long learning

“I liked the classes and instructors, I enjoyed the small classes and I really enjoyed the hands-on assignments and labs. The program has caused me to strongly consider continuing education in the medical field.”

Wylie Hainsworth, Medical Assistant, AAS, Summer Grad, 2008
