Educating a new generation of doctors

After starting her private practice in 2002, Dr. Prystowsky created a gap year position for pre-med college graduates, who were looking for clinical experience before they continued their education at medical school. The gap year medical assistant is a training position, meant to teach the trainee hands-on patient care. After one year, trainees could pass a test to become a certified medical assistant.
Following this program, medical assistants have attended the prestigious medical schools of University of Rochester, University of Virginia, Georgetown, George Washington, Yale, Mt. Sinai, Columbia, SUNY Buffalo, SUNY Downstate, and Albert Einstein College of Medicine.
