One of her Best Decisions!
Jessica Horton (pictured), a student at the Pikeville Campus, recently had an interesting experience as she waited with a family member to see local physician Oon Leedhanachoke, MD, FACS. While in the waiting room, she noticed a framed newspaper clipping of a National College employee, Leigh Ann Harris, who had received the Rookie of the Term award for outstanding performance as Admissions Representative.
When Jessica told the staff that she was a student at National, Dr. Leedhanachoke began to brag about how valuable National students have been to his facility. He went on to say that the College produced the best medical students around and that he was more than confident in hiring National graduates. In fact, Dr. Leedhanachoke is planning to work with the Pikeville campus to send more of his staff members to National College to continue their education. Pikeville looks forward to working with Dr. Leedhanachoke and is most appreciative of all his support.
Jessica says that she felt like she was on the right track when she walked out of his office. “Having one of the best doctors in our area brag on the college that I am attending is a major boost of confidence. Now I know for sure that I will have job security after graduating! Going to National is probably one of the best decisions I have ever made. ”
Jessica, from Matewan, West Virginia, is a dedicated student who drives one hour to attend classes. She is currently in the medical assisting program and takes her education very seriously. She began her studies in February of this year and is an excellent student. Students like Jessica together with employers like Dr. Leedhanachoke make National College an amazing partnership of high expectations and extraordinary results.
