Melissa Harry ★★★★★

I enrolled in the Medical Billing and Coding program online at AIHT. Throughout the entirety of my time there I was given constant support, they were very patient and understanding and always pushed me to succeed and provided any resources they could to get me to where I wanted to be. Aum Patel was with me from orientation to externship, and his professionalism and easy going personality is the perfect mix when a student is feeling unsure. My coding teacher Devasya Patel has the patience of a saint. I successfully completed the program and got my NHA certification. This was the first major step in a big career change for me and I'm glad I found AIHT.
