20 Best Medical Assistant Programs In Orlando, FL (2022 Updated)

Horrible experience!! Everybody is supposed to be young adults however my daughter was bullied and they did nothing!!! Correction, when my daughter made threats to her tormentors so they would back off the school had a officer call me and she began yelling at me, really verbally assulting me about how bad of a mother I was! This woman was completely disrespectful. They called DCF on me and the guy who shows up at my house says the principle remarked that I sounded lethargic during our phone call which made me feel like she was suggesting that I didn't care or was high (which btw I am a single mom working a full time job overnight while school personnel are sleeping only to come home in enough time to get my kids ready and off to school before I can sleep!!!!!😑) 2 days after the incident they removed my daughter from school and baker acted (put her in a mental institution against her will) her!!! They told me this after they did it so I had to find her. At least the male officer who took her to the institution was careful with his words and respectful towards me. She was alone and scared in a locked room for 2 days without her shoestrings, bra (her underwire is considered a weapon) or phone before being evaluated and immediately released after their psych doctor found nothing wrong with her. It was tearfully agonizing for us; Meanwhile her bullies got to remain in school UNPUNISHED and the school personnel involved never apologized for what they put us through. The end result was another blow to her confidence and ability to trust people and she stopped going to classes to get prepared for her GED. Please consider our nightmare before enrolling your child as this was the best path they chose to handle my child's situation. I swear I don't know how they sleep at night knowing how they failed her!! EDITED: Your response is incorrect. This happened to my daughter at the mid florida oakridge campus a few years back. Now that I have become a guide I wanted to leave this review of what happened to my family because of your school. I as well as that campus the police, the mental facility and dcf have paperwork concerning the situation.Katrina Williams

I went in today on April 20th to register for school the man at front desk was not a greeter of new students at all. He was on the phone and acted as if his personal phone conversation was more important than being of any assistance to providing me with what the school offered. He wasn't informative of what the school offered. I went to ask he a question and he acted as if I was a bother too him while being rude to others as he spoke to them. He replied very rudely when I told him that I needed his undivided attention to explain too me about the program. He goes WHAT DO YOU NEED! I TOLD HIM IT SEEMS LIKE YOUR PHONE CALL IS MORE IMPORTANT! HE GOES IN A RUDE VOICE EXPLAINING THE PROGRAM . CAN SOMEONE PLEASE ASSIST ME WITH APPLYING FOR CLASSESNikki Real

I applied online, did all the steps and applied for FAFSA but couldn’t get ahold of anyone there. They let the phone ring until they finally send it straight to voicemail. Someone picked up first ring but all I heard was a woman breathing and mumbling to herself completely ignoring me after I acknowledged myself multiple times. Super unprofessional of OTC to expect so much money for these programs but can’t even give us a call back.tamar Collington

I attended the phlebotomy course here at Cambridge. Heidi was very pleasant, she helped me understand the courses and enroll in the one that made the most since for me. Dr Tobias was my instructor, he was very knowledgeable, engaging, and took the time to make sure that we fully understood the course material. Mrs Pam popped in to assist when we started doing live sticks and that helped us all feel more confident. Renae works in the library and she wad helpful in setting up my card key and national technical honor society. Also just any questions we had about the school process she was able to answer. Mr Gabriel randomly popped in so many times just to say hi and make sure we all were comfortable and had everything we needed.. Then there was Theresa and Carmen who taught us how to interview well and helped us with our resumes. Theresa had many many connections for job placement, in fact I was hired on at adventhealth within the first week of my graduation. I hadn't even taken my NHA yet. Theresa and Carmen were constantly following up with me and them and helping in any way they could. I passed the course and the NHA with an exceptionally high grade and felt very confident in interviewing for my new role. The point of this very long review is that they are a family there and you will have a very strong support team at literally every step of your journey with them. Thanks Cambridge family for everything!Mona Tanner

I was very excited to attend Cambridge , spoke with Heidi to get everything started . I came in for orientation , signed all documents for them to get paid .I paid my admissions fee . A day before my start date I was called to tell me I wasn’t able to start school due to not being accepted in the school . So I’m confused on to why would you have to sign Paperwork just for her to call me and say I cannot start school so and that mindset that showed me that the school only cared about money I just getting their admission numbers accurate. This was the end January 6th . I went Multiple Times in January February to get my $50 admission fee back I was told on several occasions that I was not able to get it back I spoke to the Director of a school which assured me that I will get my $50 back back where they did not follow protocol by making sure I was able to go to the school before they had me sign all of the information.Heidi is very rude and only cares about numbers which is very unacceptable,she pretends to care about her job and making sure everything goes well but in reality she did nothing to help me . Still didn’t receive anything and still going on circles ! I’m not pleased or happy about even trying attend this school .ashanti deshazo

I’m a former student at Cambridge in the Altamonte location, I was in the MA program and I just wanna say they are an amazing school. Starting off with the administration staff, there very respectful and make the whole process as smoothly as possible. As far as my instructor Pamela Gyce she has nearly 30 years of experience in the field. It was a pleasure being in her class, she makes sure the class is on the same page. There is no favoritism whether you’re old or young she treats everyone with the most respect. She’s more than just an instructor Mrs.Gyce will always motivate and encourage you, if you have a goal she will do her best to help you reach it. Very professional and heart warming lady. Cambridge is the place to be.Justin Pinto

The school has absolutely been ran down into the ground. It was bad when I was there but now it's even worse. As a graduating student I suggest you spend your money elsewhere because it is not worth the hassle, the time, or the broken promises that are promised to you before graduating School. As a graduating student I was promised that I would be able to go back to the school whenever I was able to have the time to during the classes or the labs to be able to practice well lo and behold that is by far not the truth. And to receive comments of it's paying students before graduating students is unacceptable and very unprofessional. That sounds like discrimination at his best and I am still waiting a call back from the dean to be able to discuss the matter. Which I still have not received a call back. Not only have all the best teachers left the school, but they have also pushed away a lot of good teachers that should still be there. A lot has changed even since when I was going there but to be honest a lot has changed to where I don't want to go back even as a graduating student to be able to practice for where I need to be.Rachel Phillips

Halfway through my program which cost 20k they decided to switch to online learning. Of course using COVID as an excuse but this came probably the day after the governor lifted the mandates. This is after falsely advertising “hands on” education. I tried to switch classes explaining that it is very difficult to learn a skilled trade on a computer screen and was sent to the dean. She very kindly told me that if I didn’t like it I could just drop out. Leaving me financially responsible for a degree I didn’t receive and knowledge I did not learn. Two weeks into these hybrid classes the instructor sleeps at his desk the days we are in class and today he never showed. If you care about your education and money run away from this place. They enroll you on all these promises of a wonderful school. What you really get is old dirty buildings. Overcrowded classrooms. Antique tools and equipment that are broken and falling apart.B s

I made the biggest mistake of my life enrolling in this school. I enrolled in the veterinary assisting program and at least at my campus in Orlando we weren’t very hands on with anything when I got to my new place of work I had knowledge of things but couldn’t actually demonstrate anything because we didn’t have any practice in my school. Students would go in smelling like dope because the campus is on orange blossom trail I didn’t feel safe doing night classes. And the thing that has frustrated me the most is that you don’t really get a real degree. You get a certification that you have to renew every year or so that gains you absolutely no status at a vets office. You start just like anyone else who doesn’t have experience. Which means I could’ve just applied at a vets office with no experience and probably still gotten hired. If you’re looking to waste your money and time go for it.Elizabeth garza

If you want to become a CNA, this is your place to go! I passed my state exam and I couldn’t make it to my last two refresher courses, which tells you how well they teach you in class and have hands on training with great instructors. I also want to say that the online prep course is awesome! I got to practice the written test and saw the videos of each skill to refresh my memory(best thing ever) Thank you Gabriel Health Institute and ALL the faculty members who helped me throughout everything!! Will definitely recommend to everyone looking to become a CNA!Christie Hernandez

I had such a great experience. The service is definitely an A+. I took the evening class and I'm very pleased with the class and the Instructor Ms.Maria, she is very patient, explains everything in detail and was always willing to answer all our questions making sure that all the students have the chance to practice the skills and do it correctly. I have to add that Ms. Rosa is also very good and a great person. My personal experience overall was excellent.Carmen Acosta

This school was great and I'd highly recommend it to others. It's very affordable and informative. Marcella is a very good instructor and informs you on all the dos and donts..she tries her best with everyone of the students to ensure we learn as much as we can. I enjoyed being in the class and getting to meet new people..thank you for the opportunity afforded to me.Louise Thomas

I think a 1 star review is generous. I went for my BSN and one term in (8 weeks) we were told that the program is 90% the student and 10% the staff. Most of what you get from staff is power point presentations. That is when you are not doing the teaching based on a group project. And you have one of those every 8 weeks, having to depend on people for your grade and knowledge. They brag about a low drop out rate. That is a joke. It is low because it costs so much and, like all other schools of this nature, nothing transfers. So they "let you" return to repeat the term and continue. (You pay for the repeat which is why I put it in quotations) The person that arranges the clinical rotations, and ultimately handles your volunteer hour documentation, is beyond unorganized. She will lose things and send you notification you did not turn something in even if you hand it directly to her. And her excuse is she has so much going on, not my problem especially for the amount I paid for tuition. They make you feel like if you complain about anything it will be held against you. I would not recommend this school. But in all honesty there probably isn't one of these schools that would be much different.Michelle Ford Gonsowski

I had an outstanding experience with the Physical Therapist Assistant program. Every member of the PTA faculty is highly experienced, very personable, and really goes above and beyond in providing students with a high quality learning experience that definitely exceeded my expectations. As an accelerated medical program, the workload is very heavy making working while going to school very challenging. The benefit however is finishing the program earlier and working as a PTA sooner. In addition to providing you with the knowledge and skills necessary to succeed in the field of physical therapy, the program does a great job of preparing you for the board exam as well as helping you find a job afterwards if needed. I’m very happy I made the decision to attend Herzing University for PTA and would recommend it to any highly motivated person interested in becoming a Physical Therapist Assistant.Mitch Pottinger

I am an alumni from the Herzing University- Winter Park Physical Therapist Assistant Program. Each step of the way the staff and faculty are 100% supportive of your goals! With the PTA program in particular, the program faculty and director truly care about your success in the program as well as in your career. Their passion for teaching and physical therapy is evident in their teaching EVERY DAY! I successfully passed my national exam my first time taking it and felt adequately prepared to take the exam and more importantly to practice physical therapy. I was offered a job prior to graduation. If you are considering a career in physical therapy this program will prepare you for a long, rewarding and successful career. #Cohort 13 for the win!Kelly Graham

From the day I walked in the school all I ever experienced was positivity. Everyone were so professional and respectful. Professor Jenny is the best!!! But you better pay attention in her classes😘😘😘 she makes it fun and exciting to learn. Gitsy who is in charge of school is amazing!!! She makes sure you are heading for success. My advice for everyone are go to class on time, pay attention, study!!! And get involved in class. Everything she thought me was in my final exam!!! If you looking to advance your future there's no other way but ……IT Technical Florida👍👍👍👍Marceline Siril

I just want to share the experience that I had with I.T. Of Central Florida because they honestly do go above and beyond! The teachers are all very professional, knowledgeable, and make you feel as a part of their family. The classes are very straight forward and enjoyable, and if you ever have any doubts or questions the teachers are always there to help and guide you through every step of the way! The facility is very tidy, well kept, and clean! It’s a very enjoyable learning atmosphere and I am so glad I decided to go with them!!Katherine Harriette

I love this school! The prices are reasonable and the teacher is very well experienced and knows the material. She goes hand and hand with every subject, if by any chance you dont you don't understand something, she goes over it with more details. She's bilingual so when I dont understand something, she repeat it in Spanish. Professor Yenny is the best for medical assistant!stephanie rondon

This is a "Christian university," which is why I choose to come here and I was the class chaplain for the ultrasound program. AHU (formerly ADU) is far from mercy or grace. I made 2 C's and have been completely dismissed from the program forever (one new and experimental course not required for ultrasound-pediatrics)… 3 years and $30k debt later with 1 required class left, I cannot graduate. I went to the admissions director explaining the circumstances. Basically, I was told their decision stands. Something is very wrong about this situation. My family and 3 children are worst off from AHU. I had to deal with major health issues (and marital) that are now reasonably stable and have been completely withdrawn from the program with one required class remaining to be registered as a sonographer. We may seek legal action against them. I'm a disabled veteran that developed a rare condition and was finally properly diagnosed while attending the program. It was a nightmare trying to go to medical appointments, etc. They treat young and old alike, like children. The program looks for reasons to drop your grade… An example would be the routine checks to look at your home and class notes, books, etc If you don't meet their standard, they take away from your professional integrity grade. The people leading the program are careless/ruthless. The year before last we went through a hurricane with property damage. While all schools were out, mine was in session leaving no time to prepare my home and family… Same thing following the hurricane… we were back in classes being quizzed/tested while public schools had no schooling in session. I was told life happens and in healthcare you must be able to keep up… No excuses… No empathy… I explained there was no power or fuel in my area for over a week, needing to clean up, property damage… Still didn't care. Realistically, someone in my situation could have called out of work opposed to running off on the family having little food, fuel and a damaged home/property to run off school. Sadly, one student who performed well on all their quizzes and tests even came to class to take a quiz with a concussion… No joke! They didn't do well, but it was better than having their grade significantly reduced or receiving an F all together… The negative experiences are endless. Do yourself a favor, if you are determined to enter the ultrasound field, this is not a school to attend. Consider Valencia, Keiser, SantaFe. There was over a 50% fail/drop rate for the class of 2017 (I'm writing this in 2019… would have graduated with the class of 2019) and I'm talking about nearly straight-A students that were hand selected for a program with this high fail rate, which is a testament for this program. We are not dealing with students that don't know how to study or manage themselves. When the program was going through re-certification, we were told what we could and couldn't say… They expressed a concern of the courses having way too much content. Often you'll sit through three hours of lectures and then for the same class have another two to three hours of material to go through in online lectures… I don't know how they got away with only making many of the courses three credit hours. My curriculum changed several times spending money and taking class that were not required because the program kept changing; AHU does not refund unnecessary classes they tell you to take and then drops them as requirements. They do not respect you or your responsibilities as a student or as parent and will not look out for you. I've been to some of the best colleges in Florida: Embry Riddle Aeronautical University, Stetson and Asbury Seminary. I've also attended Daytona State college and by far AdventHealth University is the worst experience I've ever had… specifically their ultrasound program. Keep in mind I'm a middle aged adult with a bachelor's of science and a masters with 4 classes remaining to complete my second masters degree. Avoid this schoolJan Vandermark

I was lucky enough to attend both AHU In Florida and Denver. the staffing Florida seem to actually care and go above and beyond for the students who put the work in. they were very well equipped with drop-in tutoring, helpful library, and flexible teacher hours. Denver was not like this. when I left ahu they did not have a nursing teacher in place;instead had the principal overextend herself to not only teach but continue her job as principal with help of a old nursing friend (with no teaching experience whatsoever). they did not have a library or any official tutoring hours except for a student-run tutoring session held over Skype. also keep in mind that you will be barely any financial assistance considering that the Denver campus is barely set up as a Colorado college therefore is not accepting Colorado Pell Grant or any other Colorado grants or financial assistance. I was paying almost 7000 a trimester, 5000 out of pocket with FASFA help. then there was the religious stigmas and relationships within the school. the only way I can describe the situation was.. think of mean girls. the religious, varsity, I'm-better-then-you white women. that is the people running this campus. all women are over 50 years old, religious, gossiping, and judgmental. if you are not exactly what they want you to be, you will experience discrimination, bullying, and gossip. I never felt comfortable there talking to any of them about any situations I was having in my life because of the energy The faculty gave off. so if you are a uptight, well off, Christian who can devote the next four years to learning everything from the book because there are no teachers to help you; then this is the school for you, otherwise there is many other schools that are better prepared to help you become a real world nurse.Sierra Freemyer

I am a current student at Adventist University and I do not regret my decision. I have finished my first year of college and can tell you that the professors care about the students and are always available to speak with you with open arms. The staff is friendly and helpful and make it their duty to help you as best as they can. The campus is clean and great and not to mention how it is right next to the Florida Hospital which gives students chances to get that hands on experience. It is great knowing you are surrounded by people who have a similar passion for helping people and an interest in health science professions.sAga99

Raymond the Instructor has truly been amazing during my certification process. He has taken the time to explain everything thoroughly and given us some good techniques during hands on practice. He continues to be available with any questions I might have and also offers unlimited continuous practice time to all his students which I personally find very beneficial! Thank you Raymond! You have been amazing!!!! I highly recommend anyone who is looking to get certified in Phlebotomy to enroll in this course.Iris Marte

At first you may be very skeptical about the price for this program. In all honestly, you learn everything just like the other expensive programs. I learned everything that it takes to become a phlebotomist. This program is amazing and the instructor communicates very well with you. Everything is easy to understand and comprehend. I highly recommend this program if you are very interested and eager to become a phlebotomist.Scheneika Paul

This class was amazing I was able to do it online at my own pace or I could do in class I chose online and during the in-person skills, I got to stick a mannequin arm that had actual red fluid coming out of the vein. It was very affordable especially compared to other phlebotomy programs. The instructor answered all my questions quickly. I recommend this course for anyone wanting to do phlebotomy.brittany flener

READ THIS BEFORE YOU APPLY TO THE LPN PROGRAM I am making this post because I don’t want anyone else having to go into this Without knowing exactly what this program and school are like. 1. If you are expecting to pay for someone to actually teach you, this is not the place for you. The teachers here literally do not want to teach, probably because they have no idea how to. Only one of the actually cared, and when she lectured, we actually learned and had class discussions about the topics at hand. The rest would either A) split up part of a chapter and have the class make posters all day and then present to the class, B)split up a chapter (med surg chapters, so think disorders, nursing interventions, and meds, pretty important stuff that I don’t believe students who have no prior knowledge or experience should be teaching other students in the same class, isn’t that why the instructors are there for?) There were unfortunately very few times that we got a lecture. 2. The head teacher is a bully, and she likes to play favorites. Lord help you if you get on her bad side. Singles out students, makes fun of them, talks about them to OTHER STUDENTS behind their backs. Certain rules apply to certain students but not others because she likes them. If you end up enrolling, do not trust her. She likes to power trip. A lot. If she doesn’t get her way, she will play dirty till she does, and all the other teachers, including people above her seem scared of her for some reason. 3. Grades are messed with. If you do or say anything that upsets a certain someone, grades mysteriously suffer, and this isn’t just coming from student experience. People in the office warned us about her and the grades. 4. They are just as bad at teaching skills as they are lecturing. Complete disorganization. No demonstrations. We were told to read the book and figure it out. If we asked them a question, they would yell at us to look in the book. It was all in the book. The book was our teacher. Some students asked if they could please demonstrate for the class first and then have us practice, they would say no. “That’s not the way it works in the real world” or “no one is going to show you how to do this in the hospital, if you don’t know, you have to go and figure it out”. Yeeeaaa… pretty sure patients and their families don’t want you to “figure it out” at the hospital, but ok. 5. Speaking of skills, let’s talk about clinicals. So, you learned all these skills in class, and clinical is the time to get your hands dirty and reinforce the skills you learned, right? Nope! Can’t give shots, can’t pass med, can’t take vitals, can’t do anything, except practice CNA skills. We saw other nursing students from other schools get assigned to a nurse and do everything with the RN, but not us. We were not allowed to. 6. Although the school promotes itself as a “college”, expect to be treated like a middle schooler. While I do understand that there are dual enrollment students at the school (high schoolers), that is no reason to treat grown adult student like children. You will be talked down to. A LOT. Literally no respect whatsoever. Sometimes you even forget that you are an adult in this place. Valencia and Seminole also have dual enrollment, and everyone is treated in a professional manner, regardless of your age, so that is no excuse. 7. Let’s talk pharmacology. Very important in nursing. We never ever ever EVER had a single pharmacology lecture. AT ALL! Never! All we got were packets. That’s it. So that pharm class on your class schedule, forget about it. Doesn’t exist. The meds we did learn, we learned in the med surg chapters. That was the extent of our exposure to pharm. I wanted to write this so other people know exactly what they are getting into, because I wish I had known, so I could have made an informed decision (run!!!) There was so very little information available, and had I known about the toxic environment that I would be getting myself into, I would have never ever gone to this “college”.Flo Nighting

If I could give them a zero star I would!! DO NOT I repeat DO NOT waste your time with this school !!! it's a JOKE. The staff downstairs are a whole bunch of liars and have no ideas what they are talking about half of the time. I took accounting with a teacher that is not certified to teach! she does nothing but sit on her computer and look at houses all day. when I registered for this school I was told that I will have an professor that will actually teach me accounting and go over everything with me. We teach our self! EVERYTHING we do is ONLINE!!! but they want you to sit here for 900 hours!!! and it's doesn't matter if your child is sick or if you have court YOU HAVE TO MAKE ALL OF THE HOURS UP! so please don't waste you time. there is a similar school in the area that offer the same programs as this school. I wish I went there instead!!!Francisca Joseph

I am NEVER a person to leave feedback no matter how unprofessional one is . But this school is HORRIBLE &VERY unprofessional !! I applied for surgical tech and completed the paperwork & medical for this program back January 2021. In May I begin to email BOTH instructors over this program to see what date in August will I be able to start so after multiple emails and phone calls I was finally able to speak to front desk who advised me that they're still accepting people from 2019 for surgical .Why do they still have it open if their that backed up ??like I could have chose a different program.Then The instructor called me and said we don't have your paperwork on file and that I need to come back down to resubmit it. Like whatttt??? .Jah'Nyce Floyd

I was so impressed with Mary at the front desk. She made me feel welcome, cared about what I needed and communication between her and the other staff and visitors was second to none. Unfortunately the allied health program is not at all strong. Outdated books, organized to a point but not as organized as the well established colleges, no structure to the rules and regulations for student attendance policy, because the program is so small, students get away with treating staff and instructors badly, staff needs to pay attention to educational detail to guide students in the correct direction and not make rules and regulations as they go day to day, some instructors that are there just for a paycheck, very bad relations between Nursing Program staff and Allied Health staff because one thinks they are better than the other and look to create drama to cause low moral for staff and students, and the financial struggles month after month that any school gas, but very disorganized on how they deal with the struggles. Advice, spend your money at a better college or institute so you can have a well rounded education with a school that makes sense.Freedom 1

Before going to this school …please read this!! Run…they don't care about you ….all they want is your money. Most of the teachers care for the most part but if you have issues with your teachers they turn a deaf ear . They don't listen to you especially if you have teachers who are failing you on purpose ,belittling you in front of the class and make you feel small in front of everybody. When you get to med surge the teacher will fail you on purpose ..majority of my class failed . The school knows all about this teacher and won't do a thing about it . So my advice to you is go to concorde because gwinnett in Orlando don't care about you. It's funny how the school is trying to help people pass capstone!!When we only got a two day remediation..the capstone teachers job Is already alot in a whole. They banned me from repeating my capstone even tho I'm done program!! All I asked for is proper remediation…go elsewhere. If enough student's get together they should sue themNeisha Simpson

I graduated from the RN program at Gwinnett Institute July 1, 2019. Less than 3 weeks later I passed the NCLEX on the first try! The school providing me all the necessary tools to pass this exam. The instructors made theirselves available for tutoring, not only with nursing/patient topics but with hands on skills. I also really felt like the staff cared about me. If I ever had a problem, as a student or in my personal life, I always had someone I could go to. The administration literally kept their doors open for the students. I would recommend this school to anyone looking for an education in health care. I am just so grateful to Gwinnett Institute for the education, life long career and the many friendships I've made along the way.Diane lambeth

(Translated by Google) They threatened me with a lawyer for issuing a comment and required me to edit it .. here I edit it. This school claims to provide study aid for the nation's license and they are never available !! Then they say to help you with a license 😳. I would not invest here because I only think I would waste the money. The service and professionalism are essential when it comes to providing a quality service and they do not even have time to answer calls or messages and the excuse is that they are out of the country giving classes but that they will communicate later … answer that never came and in the end I was surprised to read all the messages that other people left here referring in a negative way regarding this place. 👉 (Original) Me amenazaron con abogado por emitir un comentario y me exige editarlo.. aquí lo edito. Esta escuela dice proveer ayuda para estudiar para la licencia de la nación y nunca están disponibles!! Luego dicen ayudarte con una licencia 😳. Yo no invertiria aquí porque solo pienso botaria el dinero. El servicio y profesionalismo son indispensable a la hora de brindar un servicio de calidad y nisiquiera tienen tiempo para responder llamada ni mensajes y la excusa es que están fuera del país dando clases pero que se comunicaran luego… respuesta que nunca llego y al final me sorprendió leer todos los mensajes que dejaron aquí otras personas refiriéndose de manera negativa con respeto a este lugar. 👉Z

I wish I could give this school 10 stars!!! They go above and beyond to make sure students are successful. Many students are given many chances that in my opinion they don’t deserve but the Director truly wants to see everyone succeed! In just 9 months I took an accelerated LPN program and passed the HESI Exit with a 900 and NCLEX the first time with 75 questions. You definitely have to study and put in the work but they will help you and provide the resources you need to be successful. The Director is an experienced nurse and teacher. I love her!!! Oh they are good for remediation too, I sent my friend there after she failed the NCLEX and she passed too! Now we both are licensed nurses and making money!!!!Student Nurse

Let me start off by saying they welcomed me with opened arms. I called around to many school but after talking to the administration my heart lead me there. Mrs Lisa & Ms Tia is a blessing and they really help you in many ways. I gladly to say I’m a graduate LPN of Step Medical and was under such great leadership. I will highly recommend this institution to anyone. Again thanks Step Medical institute.Kennesha Fulmore

Great staff. The course is very thorough and easy to navigate. Make sure you have a computer with an updated system, I did not and had a bit of technical difficulties but the staff was extremely understanding and helped me through it. Mrs Tia is a gem, she will guide and help you in every way she can. Mrs Lisa is great as well. Thanks ladies!Lizbeth Escobar

(Translated by Google) A great academy, very good teachers, spectacular service.

This academy is under new management and I love it! It was the best experience that I’ve ever gone through. The teachers helped me through all of my questions and the owners were there all the time and were very involved with all the students. Iris and Luis were very personable from the moment I stepped into the door to the moment I left. I recommend this academy for ANYONE looking to become a medical assistant, or even being certified in CPR/ First Aid/ Phlebotomy. I absolutely loved it.Madelyne Perez

I had a great experience at OMI. I attended a "Flipped classroom" for Paramedic school led by retired FDNY Lieutenant Paramedic Hector Arroyo, and the most important thing I can say is that you get out what you put in. If you put in the work, the staff of OMI will work tirelessly to make sure you get the education you paid for. No games, no egos, just knowledge. The clinical coordinator Jessica Sasser absolutely made my year. I have never in my life worked with someone more accommodating or approachable than she has been. My year of Paramedic school would have been substantially worse if not for her kind, understanding, and extremely hardworking and available approach to clinical internship. While I enjoyed my overall experience at OMI, if I recommend OMI to coworkers or friends, my experience with Jessica will be one of the first anecdotes I share. In addition, I would be remiss if I did not mention the Vice President, Mrs. Abby Marquez. Her caring nature and calm demeanor while dealing with conflicts cannot be overlooked. No matter the obstacle, we all knew we could go speak to Abby, and she would help us come to a tenable solution. Knowing that the administrative staff of your school is on your side and truly cares about you is a feeling you cannot put a price on. I definitely recommend this school for those individuals looking for a no-nonsense, straightforward, and rewarding approach to higher education.Logan Reedy

As a recent graduate of the EMT program at Orlando Medical Institute, I want to take a second to recognize the staff for all of their hard work. From the admin staff to the instructors and lab instructors, everyone did an amazing job preparing the students for excellence in the field. Even during the shutdown and inability to get into hospitals for clinical hours due to the coronavirus, they worked hard to keep us on track and provided simulations to practice our skills. Thank you to everyone at OMI for your help and your dedication to the students. I recommend this school to anyone looking to enter the field. I'm looking forward to continuing my education with OMI in the paramedic program.Darren Barnes

Okay I attended this school way back years ago. Yes the owners do like and make money. The teachers are pretty good but all work multiple jobs and can be late or they may rush to fill a teacher last minute. Their driver cert truck is very old. Abby never bothered me. One thing to be carful. If you are going on to college classes or certs they may not accept your cert or you will have to take the college test. OMI does not require a college entry test. Seminole state does. Felix is very knowable and cares about the school. Just remember this is a private school. Not a college or university. Other than that I attend learned and passed without issue.brad gibson

I went to this back in 2009 and came back to them because they are very patient and nice. The owner is very understanding and wants his students to succeed! 😊Stacey Peterson

This a great school to go to for your CNA. The owner was very kind and helpful and helping through the process of becoming a CNAketia Delva

UPDATE !!! I took the CNA State Board Exam yesterday 8/24 and PASSED both the Written and Hands on Skills. My Skills were ROM on Left Shoulder, Pulse and Perineal Care !!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND Southern Technical Institute After years of procrastinating and putting off becoming a Certified Nursing Assistant and a Med Tech. I had decided to do the CNA and HHA Orlando Package Deal at Southern Technical Institute. The package included Online Certified Nursing Assistant, 75 Hour Home Health Aide (HHA) Self-Administered Medication (6 Hour Med Tech) plus 24 CEU’s. After completing and passing all of the required courses I had attended the CNA Power Weekend class that was from Friday 4/16 to 4/18. And the class and the instructor Ms. Ruth was a AMAZING 🤩 She was very professional and made sure got and thoroughly understand all of the information that’s required for the State Board Exam and what we needed know when we get into field. She also made the class fun and enjoyable. When it was time for us to practice our skills she given feedback and corrected us when needed to make sure we were performing the skills correctly. All of my fellow classmates was so FUN to be around. We all worked together and helped each other when needed. And we all Received our Certificate of Completion. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND taking courses at this School … GREAT EXPERIENCE 😁 !!!La La

If I could give this school a zero I would. 1- I took the phlebotomy classe there prior to covid( couldn’t do my clinicals) so they contacted me after months and gave me dates and days that I work ( mind you I have a new job and they never communicated not once or give me a heads specially whenever I am new on this job) 2- they promise me that part of my tuition will be a cpr class I graduated since last year prior to covid and I still haven’t gotten a call to schedule my cpr class they promise. They will act like they are trying to help, or they are concern. It’s all a front, they do what works for them. Spend your money elsewhere as their class is self paid and phlebotomy classes was expensiveDana frederique

The staff here are very helpful and Ms. Rosa was on top of everything. Ms. Miller was funny and enjoyable to learn phlebotomy from. I was a little nervous taking a class here since it was not an official college like Seminole state but they work just as well. The communication at this school is much better than any state associated college. The class I took came with a CPR class, textbooks, scrubs, and a 40 hr externship done at advent health. Just stay on top of your paperwork and be organized with your time and there really shouldn't be any problems at all because Jeanette and Rosa (the front desk) are very efficient and communicate well.Steven T

If I could give 0 stars I would! This school was unprofessional from the very beginning. No one was on one accord. Teachers showing up late to class,I literally waited 2 and half hours for my teacher to show up. Without any notice! Then the teaching style is horrible! You are literally reading out of the text books and then expected to A’s the test that is given. If your a visual learner like me, getting up and having that one on one with the teachers are extremely important. If I was to explain everything I’ve experienced in such a lil time in this school, It would literally take me all day! Please, please do your own research when it comes to your education.I chose to ignore the red flags.smh Picking this school was one of my biggest regrets ever. Big waste of money!!Maxizah Singleton-Clarke

This school is very welcoming and from time to time we have fun as well but education first. They definitely work with you here and I recommend more potential nurses to give it a try. Also I will like to say thank you to the Linda and Eli for all their hard work in the officeLaresa Moore

At first I was very nervous to go back to school for my BSN. I am glad that I chose Hajgden International College. The expectations are high in order to prepare us to meet the challenges of our nursing career. And I have developed leadership and management skills.Myrtha Louis

This institution goes above and beyond to help out veterans. The instructors are prior military and know what you go through. STRAC Institute provides students with certifications in electronics theory and in soldering. Over all great experience.michael caraway

Infinite thanks for being professionals, I get the best impression of the academy, thanks for giving me the opportunity to study and prepare myself, for you today I have the Phlebotomy Certificate, I recommend it 100%, they provide facilities and opportunities that other academies do not, for that thanks.Raydel Arteaga

I took a phlebotomy course here and i’m going back for the EKG one! Everyone is so spectacular and professional. They really care about you. Everyone interested in a Phlebotomy, EKG or Medical Assistant course should definitely take it here!Deianeyra Febo
