Testimonials

Jessica Espinosa, Vascular Technologist

Started in July of 2019 and graduated in 2021 from their Vascular Technology program. The professors and faculty were attentive and supportive throughout it all, even with a pandemic going on. The school arranges the students externship site, and I was fortunate to get a job offer at my site by the end of it. I’m super blessed to start 2022 with a great career!

Alexcia Delmonico, Cardiovascular Technology

I enrolled for the cardiovascular technologist program as the offerings of the program intrigued me and also to boost my career from a dead-end desk job. The instructors in AIHT are considerate and very helpful. They make sure that every student understands the material and often give extra time to students after class to clear their doubts. I strongly believe that after gaining knowledge from AIHT, I’ll be looking forward to work in a rewarding career where I can keep learning and growing.

Bryan Oei, Medical Billing and Coding

Earlier I worked as a bartender and at construction sites. I was always inclined towards having my career in the medical field. I feel joining AIHT was one of the best decisions of my life. When I was facing difficulties in understanding a few concepts, my instructor personally tutored me before my final exam to ensure all my concepts were clear. I have had an amazing experience of learning and growing in AIHT and I look forward to get my national certification.
