Pros

Working as a scribe provides amazing learning opportunities. If you are looking to go to medical school, PA/NP school, or just want to learn about the medical field, then being a scribe is one of the best jobs that you can get. ScribeAmerica is the best, most successful scribe company in the States.

Cons

It can be very demanding at times. Shifts are hard to get covered. The pay is not at all on the level of the work that you will do.

Working as a scribe at ScribeAmerica can be very demanding, given that we work on the front lines of the medical field. However, the experience is extremely rewarding and an important stepping stone for those who wish to pursue medical careers. Anecdotal evidence suggests that scribes who go on to medical school or other advanced medical degree programs are extremely successful relative to other students due to the working knowledge of medicine developed on the job. Working as a scribe is also an excellent way to determine whether you are truly interested in a long term career in medicine, given that scribes work alongside medical providers and staffs on every shift.

Pros

Looks good on a resume.

Cons

Low pay and poor training. I did like three days of shadowing only, was only exposed to Cerner twice with very little time to explore. My trainer said my HPI’s were good… but then I got an email from the Chief Scribe saying I am missing too much, so I was pretty confused there. I’m with a different doctor every time, right out of the gate. Also, I only applied for one location, and was then assigned to four.
