Ross Medical Education Center has been absolutely outstanding. I attended the Medical Assistant program at the Port Huron campus and then I pursued the Medical Scribe Specialist Program online. I received job offers after the completion of both programs. Ross has prepared me for a career for the rest of my life.

Being a single mother who works full-time and cares for her granddaughter, I didn't think going back to school was an option for me. Ross Medical has a great schedule for working parents, so I was able to fit school into my busy schedule. I am almost halfway through the program and I am so proud to be a Ross student.
