Medical assistants do stuff like taking the patient's history, checking their weight and BP, and drawing blood. This saves time for the doctor. I looked into medical assisting and I wouldn't do it because it takes about a year and $10,000 tuition to become a MA, and you only get paid about $11/hr.
Why not become a sonographer? The training time is about the same, but salaries start pretty high, around 50k. Just make sure the program is accredited.
