Internship Reflection
Over the course of my senior year, I was fortunate to have the
opportunity to observe the life of a medical assistant. Medicine has been
one of my major field interest growing up. I also have always been
interested in working with infants, children, and families. Through my
internship I was able to witness their work ethic and how their regular
schedule looks like. This opportunity has allowed me to experience
first-hand in the work field. I am extremely grateful for being able to shadow
open, kind, and helpful people. I learned many things about naturopathy
medicine, prenatal care and homebirth. I also learned about each person
who works in the medical center. Everyone was very kind and professional.
I was able to get an insight on the career I plan on pursuing. One of the
most valuable experience for me was being able to be involved in the
circumcision appointments, I was able to observe how they operate the
procedure. I was surprised by how fast the procedure was done on the
infants. Overall, I will never forget this wonderful experience, i’m incredibly
excited for what the future hold for me and my career. I’m prepared to be a
helping hand for others.
