Medical assistants perform administrative and clinical tasks in the offices of physicians, podiatrists, chiropractors, and other healthcare professionals. Their duties vary depending on the location, specialty, and size of the practice.

Clinical medical assistants have different functions depending on the state where they work. They may perform basic laboratory tests, dispose of contaminated supplies, and sterilize medical instruments. They may have additional responsibilities, such as instructing patients on medications or special diets, preparing patients for radiographs, removing stitches, drawing blood, or changing dressings.

Some medical assistants specialize according to the type of medical office where they work.
