I studied the Medical Secretary Diploma with Lewis College and had a really positive experience. The tutors were friendly, very supportive and always quick to respond to any questions. The course was itself was detailed, easy to follow and flexible enough to fit around other commitments. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to start a career in medical administration.
I recently completed a Certificate III in Personal Assistance and it was a great experience! I was looking to up-skill while I was working full time and came across Lewis College in a Google search.
The tutors are incredibly helpful and responsive and really care about your development during and even after you've completed the qualification with the offer of Career advice/counselling if desired. There are payment options too which makes the course fees a lot more manageable, and you're able to complete the units and assessments at your own pace, which is great for anyone who works full-time.
Highly recommend! 🙂

I’m very grateful for my experience with Lewis College. The staff were always kind, supportive and professional, and they guided me through every step of my course. I felt encouraged from start to finish. Thank you for helping me achieve this milestone. Highly recommended!
Taking my course in Advanced Administration gave me a more specific understanding of how to support managers with a high quality service. The support provided since the beginning was outstanding and made my experience better. The entire team is made of excellent professionals that provide amazing tips throughout the entire processe, enabling to learn and acquire knowledge in a very smooth way. I would definitely recommend people to have a look into the big variety of courses available and invest in themselves.

I have had a wonderful experience studying with Lewis College. I completed the Medical Secretary Diploma, and the course content was planned and delivered exceptionally well. Everything was easy to follow, and the resources provided were extremely useful.
I learnt a lot of new things throughout the course, and the medical terminology section was broken down in such a clear and structured way that it was easy to follow and keep up with.
The tutors have been amazing — always approachable, supportive, and patient. Not once was I made to feel like I was asking a silly question, which made such a difference to my confidence.
Completing this course has not only given me the confidence to start applying for jobs, but it has also helped me refresh my existing skills and develop them to a much more advanced level. I genuinely feel prepared for the next step in my career.
I highly recommend Lewis College to anyone considering a career in medical administration.

I had a positive experience at this college. The tutors are helpful and knowledgeable and the content was clear, engaging and well organised.
I have completed the Level 3 Medical Secretary Course with Lewis College. I have really enjoyed the course and it's content. Some of the content I already had experience with but there was lots I had not done before and I am glad to be able to refresh and add to my knowledge, and also be able to prove to future employers that I am able to do these things - a big tick for my CV! I started this course when working in a call centre which I did not enjoy and wanted a change. I have since changed to a band 3 medical secretary role in the NHS with no previous experience in healthcare whilst I was in the middle of this course and I definitely think mentioning it my interview gave me a big leg up. The tutors are all very friendly and encouraging. I would be happy to complete another course with Lewis College.
