Gaining admission to a pre-professional school has never been more competitive. Candidates must have extensive patient contact hours and letters of recommendation to increase their chances of success. That’s why a growing number of students are choosing to become medical scribes, especially if taking a gap year. Not only does medical scribing provide plenty of opportunities to observe providers treating patients, but scribes also gain access to a professional mentor who can provide advice and a valuable letter of recommendation.
Five Reasons to Work with Scribe-X
Our smaller corporate team offers more personal communication and an authentic commitment to our scribes’ career goals. That means time off for MCATs and time off for interviews.
Remote medical scribes document patient encounters in real-time, helping you gain the knowledge and accrue the patient contact hours just as if you were working in the clinic.
We work with many community health centers, meaning you can see a culturally diverse patient population who live in underserved areas. Medical schools place a high value on this type of experience.
Medical scribes work closely with providers who are interested in mentoring the next generation of healthcare workers. You’ll leave with valuable letters of recommendation and the beginnings of a professional network.
Our medical scribes have many opportunities for advancement, and can pursue a variety of leadership roles during their time with Scribe-X.
Become a Medical Scribe First
Our smaller corporate team offers more personal communication and an authentic commitment to our scribes’ career goals. That means time off for MCATs and time off for interviews.
Medical Scribes typically work with one full-time or two part-time providers for a year or more. This is the best way to master the skills of a medical scribe and develop a close bond with a provider who can offer guidance and letters of recommendation.
Float Scribes are experienced medical scribes who support a variety of medical providers, often across multiple specialties.
Lead Scribes are experienced medical scribes who split their time between scribing duties and training new scribes. The training focuses on the final two to four weeks of the training sequence called the Apprenticeship Phase. During this time, scribes learn to apply their knowledge in the live environment while the provider sees patients.
Training Consultants are experienced medical scribes who are also experienced at training new scribes. While they sometimes provide regular scribe support, their focus is twofold: training new scribes and training new medical providers on optimizing their remote medical scribe service.
Many medical scribes have chosen to continue their career at Scribe-X and have joined the Operations Team. Roles on this team include staffing coordinators, education supervisors, and much more.
CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
“In pediatrics patients and parents really appreciate eye contact. Scribe-X has given me back the ability to focus on the patient and not the computer screen. My productivity has also gone up, allowing my families to have better access when I am really needed. My scribe & I have a great professional working relationship and is considered a vital team member of my support staff.”
Jonathan A. M.D.

“My scribe is continuing to improve daily and I am very happy with her work. In the last couple of months, I have found myself enjoying medicine more-and-more as I can focus less on the charting.”
Michael F., MCHS, PA-C
Provider
“I've had a wonderful experience working with the Scribe-X team. My current scribe took a little longer to complete her formal training, but since then, I've been very impressed with her tenacity for excellence and continued growth. She dramatically improves patient care, clinic efficiency, and my own quality of life.”

“Working with Scribe-X, I have been able to give patients more personalized attention and a more thorough evaluation. Focusing directly on patient care and documentation of orders and treatment plans to completion WHILE IN THE ROOM, significantly reduces work flow interruptions. This reduces re-work, re-thought and medical errors. (Huge stress reliever)”
