Training to be a Paralegal Assistant.

My job is training me to be a physical therapist and I'm a medical assistant. Is that good?

  • I got hired in a physical therapy office last week. They knew I was a medical assistant but they want to train me as a physical therapist. Is being a physical therapist better than a medical assistant?

  • Answer:

    To be a Physical Therapist in the United States you would need a college degree and often a master's degreee in PT. Your office may be training you to be a PTA (Physical Therapist Assistant). Is it better? It probably pays slightly more. But better would depend on what you enjoy...
