I recently started a clinical at Plastic and Hand Surgical Associates through my medical assisting program at Biddeford Regional Center of Technology. This is an eight week program where i will get about thirty hours of clinical experience. My experience so far through this experience has been a great one. I have learned more in just 5 hours then I have learned in weeks of school. This opportunity allows me to make sure that the medical field is where I really want to go with my life and this experience has solidified that. I now know that I want to be a nurse and in the work area of a medical facility. I love the fast paced environment and caring for people and knowing that everyday is going to different.
Plastic and Hand Surgical Associates is a plastic surgery office where they perform anything from liposuction to the simple removal of a mole. I have been to this site two times now and I have already seen many different things. I have seen breast cancer patients who go from having a mastectomy (removal of breasts) to them having breasts again. It's amazing what they procedures can do. I have also seen a newborn baby with a cleft lip and other minor injuries. Overall this has been a great learning experience for me and I can't wait to see what the future holds.
