New San Angelo Medical Assistant School Opening in September

SAN ANGELO, TX - San Angelo Medical Assistant School has announced the opening of its newest location this September.

"Aspiring medical professionals in San Angelo, Texas, now have a new opportunity to join the healthcare field through an accelerated medical assistant program that combines classroom instruction with in-person, hands-on training," information states. 

The school is located at 3180 Executive Dr, Ste. 102, San Angelo, TX, and is designed to prepare students with the "skills and confidence they need to launch their careers in medicine." The first class is scheduled to begin Saturday, Sept. 27, 2025. 

“We’re focused on providing practical education that directly benefits both our students and the community’s healthcare providers,” said Holly Capuano, San Angelo Medical Assistant School Program Manager. 

According to information, students at San Angelo Medical Assistant School participate in hands-on labs within a local medical office and complete an externship with experienced medical professionals. This approach allows them to graduate in just a few months while receiving both clinical and administrative training.

The program offers "flexible payment options" so students can complete their education affordably, saving money compared to traditional training pathways.

"With this model, graduates are job-ready in a fraction of the time it takes to complete a traditional degree program," information states. 

Training covers medical terminology, patient care, anatomy, and clinical procedures, as well as administrative responsibilities like medical billing, coding, and maintaining electronic health records.

This broad skill set is intended to push graduates to pursue a wide range of positions in healthcare offices and clinics.

“It’s exciting to bring this program to San Angelo,” said Chris Lofton, CEO of Zollege. “Our goal is to expand opportunities for people who want to build meaningful healthcare careers while meeting the growing demand for skilled medical assistants in Texas.”

Founded in 2010, Zollege partners with medical and dental practices nationwide to provide accessible, affordable training programs. Today, Zollege operates more than 140 campuses and helps over 6,000 students each year begin debt-free careers in healthcare.

Upon certification, students will be prepared to pursue employment across hospitals, clinics, and physician practices throughout the San Angelo region.
