"As a Clinical Allergy Specialist, I have gained phenomenal experience that I believe will make me a stronger medical school applicant. Before joining the company, I worked as a medical scribe in several different specialties, but the hands-on experience and valuable interactions as a CAS remain unmatched. Working directly with patients, multiple providers, as well as fellow CAS, has allowed me to view medicine from a vast number of perspectives and understand that no two patients nor providers are alike. In addition to my clinical experience, the GAP year program at UAS provides tools to strength your application for profession schools. The reimbursement program has been my best friend, as I can invest in myself with quality study materials and not worry about being able to afford it. I have truly enjoyed my time here at UAS, and I am very excited and confident about applying to medical school this spring."

UAS Gap Year Program
"Working for UAS in the Gap Year Program helped strengthen my medical school primary and secondary applications and gave me the real-world experience needed in my interviews. Through this job, I formed strong and lasting relationships with the providers and medical support staff in my office, gained exposure to a wide range of patients, and furthered my understanding of the medical field through first-hand experiences. Managing my own patient schedule also gave me the flexibility to take time off to attend interview and second look weekends. UAS was supportive at every level in my path to attending medical school, and I am very grateful for the Gap Year Program!"

UAS Gap Year Program
During my time with UAS as a Clinical Allergy Specialist, I gained valuable experience that enhanced my journey to medical school. My interactions with patients, healthcare providers, and UAS colleagues allowed me to gain new perspectives on healthcare while improving lives of our patients. As a future physician, I aspire to improve the quality of healthcare by providing patient-focused care to my patients; I truly believe that my role as a CAS allowed me to lay the groundwork for the humane practice of medicine that I hope to carry out in my future career.

I am fairly new...
I am a fairly new CAS to UAS. I started in December 2019. So far, the company has been more than welcoming. The POD that I am apart of is such a tight knit POD and someone is always there when I have a question. My CS is amazing! She has built up my confidence in being a new cAS and I can’t wait to see where this journey takes me! I am also a patient of UAS as well. The CAS that has been overseeing me has been so informative and it is wonderful to be able to relate to my patients on the same level as well. I can share with them my journey and use my experiences to help answer any questions they have and help was any doubts that they have. I am only one month in, but I can already tell that this will be a great tool to help my clinic grow as well!

My name is Ali and I work at the front desk of the clinic Jazmin works out of. Every single patient that comes in to see the allergy lab are always looking forward to see Jaz. Patients tend to be so interested in the allergy lab. Also, Jazmin always makes my day so much better.

Immunotherapy is helping my patients improve chronic symptoms such as sinus congestion, frequent colds and URI, coughs, rashes, and headaches. In addition, it limits the overuse of prescribed antibiotics and patients are satisfied with the results.
