MT/HDS and You

[feature-image alt=‘’ layout=‘’ size=‘’]

Medical Transcription / Healthcare Documentation is a great career path for those who wish to work from home and need the flexibility to take care of a family. Listen to what our graduates have to say about us and our course:

It has been a long journey for me since I started CanScribe’s Medical Transcription program. It took me two years to finally complete this up-to-date and well-structured program. In the process of learning, I have encountered tremendous difficulties from my personal life, the issues with my computer, and the learning itself. But thanks to the instructors and staff and the fellow students from CanScribe for their help and support, I have finally completed the program and landed a job with a great company and doing something that I really love to do.

Right after my graduation, I sent out 3 applications and was accepted by all 3 companies. I am currently working at M*Modal, under a mentor program which gives me a real world working experience. I am still having some difficulties in my work and learning a lot of new things, but I am working hard and trying to improve my skills as an MT, and I do believe that with a passion and determination and the training, I will be a successful MT someday.

I am a single mother who needed a job that would be flexible, yet provides a reasonable amount of income to support my family.

I heard about medical transcription and did my research on it. I will be honest, I became so discouraged by a lot of negative feedback (it does not pay well and the companies are unfair). Well, I have to say that I am so glad that I did NOT listen to all the negative feedback and decided to take the course with CanScribe. This profession is perfect for me. I have been working as a Medical Transcriptionist for 2 years and I absolutely love it. I was hired within 5 days of handing out my resume (1.5 weeks after graduating). The way it works for me is that I dictate my own income based on the amount of reports I do. Yes, I am paid cents per minute, but I still determine how much I can make based on how many hours a day I put in. Taking the course through CanScribe was easy for me and I felt supported at all times. All the instructors were knowledgeable, very patient, and encouraging. Do I feel that the course prepared me to be an excellent Medical Transcriptionist? Yes! The transition was quite easy. I am so happy I took the plunge and put my trust in the instructors at CanScribe, because I am now employed and loving what I do.
