My positive experience with Another Medical Must - sm

Posted: Aug 16, 2014

I'm leaving my weekend part-time position with Another Medical Must only because I'm going to be working as a pet sitter/dog walker on weekends starting next weekend. The owner of Another Medical Must has posted the vacancy here on MT Stars, and I would just like to say that she is wonderful to work for. I've been slowly phasing out of MT work the past couple of years since I now work full time at our university and only need to supplement my full time income with a few hours of MT work. I was a full time MT for 25 years, before the MTSOs started sending work to India.

If you work for Renee, you can be assured that she will be there to help whenever you need her. The account is an easy one. All EFLs (English as FIRST Language!). She really cares about her MTs. For me, getting exercise as a dog walker will be better physically, so I'm jumping at the opportunity. I've lost the passion for being an MT that I used to have. If I were going to stay in, though, it would be with Another Medical Must.

What is a medical must?? - nm

I am not looking for an MT job (am retired) but I just wanted to wish you lots of good luck and say that I hope you get lots of Rottweilers and Dobermans--the two best dogs in the world, IMHO! Have fun walking.

They are the best! - OP

You're right about Rotties and Dobies! I love them...but they might be a little too rambunctious for this tired ol' body. Hee-hee! I might have to enlist the help of my teenager in that case. Thank you for the good wishes. I think it's the perfect solution to my need for supplemental income.

Yes, they are very rambunctious--and strong, too. Rotties are quite stubborn. It takes a lot of physical strength to control such big dogs. I have always wanted an Akita, but am not sure I could control one at my age (70). Anyway, I hope you get lots of wonderful canine friends and clients and enjoy your new venture. Just be careful of chow-chows. I love them, but they bite!

With all the negative posts on here, I'd like to add a positive post. I was recently hired by SoftScript, starting training this week, and so far I am really impressed. I had read posts on here that caused me a great deal of concern over my decision, but so far so good. They have been on top of their game as far as the recruitment process. Everything I was told would happen did happen, and very quickly and professionally. Everything setup and ready to go ...

Maybe I'm the eternal optimist. My eyes are wide open, and I've been through previous crappy merger. Maybe The Worst Case will indeed happen. I guess it's like MQ, the ship of misery where everyone (including me) stayed and stayed and stayed for numerous reasons. I finally got off only to find a few yrs later a new merger with Transcend. BTW, the number I heard on conferences was that with MDI-MD, Transcend was now with 1200 MLS/TLs. Just ...

I have become pretty miserable/bored lately. I know its the job itself and I know what the future holds for it, but I can't go back to school right now to try to further my education for something else because I homeschool my kids and that is my first priority. MT is just part time. I've been MT'ing for close to 15 years and have never done any other transcribing. I was just wondering if I wanted to venture out of medical and do general transcription w ...

Does anyone have any experience with USA Medical Transcription? I've read a couple of bad things about them. I don't want to apply to anyone who will treat me like I have been treated. I'm SO close to getting out of transcription and I'm a damn good transcriptionist! ...

I had never heard of them before, and there do not seem to be many posts in the archives about them, but then again, maybe that is a good thing. Generally, you hear about the bad companies (which I realize is subjective), but not always about the good ones. Any information is appreciated. Thanks. ...

I've been an MT for 12 years. I started out with MedQuist as a subcontractor. Life was great! Then came employee status and being performance managed, VS, crappy software, overworked supervisors and nit picking about being literally 10 minutes late for work or getting heavy points taken off my quality score for typing "were" instead of "was." I went to Focus, which was then taken over by Nuance, and the same experience as above started happening. So I went ...

I received a job interview for an IC position with a company called National Medical Transcription with headquarters in New York. Has anybody worked with this company? My main concern was that the company does not offer direct deposit but rather issues a check via mail. Next concern is a "transparent" means of tallying up productivity for 65 character lines and spaces included. I would appreciate any feedback from present or past contractors. Thank you. ...

I graduated from a local Technical College with a Certificate in Medical Transcription. I had spent a year searching for a company that would hire someone new, but had no luck. Then, out of the blue a local company had seen my resume and offered me a job. I got the job, but the thing was I was almost 7 months pregnant with my second child! I had only worked a couple months until our baby was born and after consideration, decided not to come back so I could be with our baby full-time. Well, it ha ...

I get on this site every now and then and it is so disheartening to see so many people frustrated with their employers. I work for two different companies and I have to say I love them both. I work for OSi and I work for All Type. Both treat me fairly, respond rapidly to questions and are nice employers. I've always been paid on time, they both understand emergencies and I make a good income from each. There are good companies and there are nice people to work ...

Hi, I am new to this board, but have been searching jobs here. I applied to TTD and received new-hire package. I have been looking here at all the negative comments about them before actually figuring out what I want to do with them. My question is, are there any positive comments about them at all? I may have an opportunity later this summer at a job locally and have a job currently, but not sure if I want to hop into this if they don't pay. I don't want ...

I'm currently a student with a nearing graduation date. I'm getting quite discouraged lately because from what I have been researching and finding on forums is that basically there is not enough work out there to make ends meet.

I just wanted to mention something positive about MT, my experience. There are a lot of negatives posted about the MT field on this board, and I'm not discounting anybody's experience, as, yes, there have been changes in this field, and some of those changes have hit people hard and are not fair. I just wanted to give encouragement to people who like MT that there are some positive things/companies still going on. I have 7 years of experience. I graduated from C ...

Man, I can see the changes in the transcription industry (admittedly negative changes) have really gotten us down and we're stuck in a mire of complaints, bad feelings and feeling tired and fed up! I feel the same way, and I feel that greed and the economy are to blame. But sometimes you just need to hear a positive word to make it through the day, or through the week. Here is mine - I am thankful that I do not have to spend money on work clothes and ga ...
