A member asked:

How long does it take to get a associates degree medical and health professions?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

About two years.: It depends on what exactly the degree is on and which college and state it is in. An a.S. Degree in nursing or dental hygiene can be two or three years in oregon. But if you can, go for the four year b. Sc. Degree. Better future opportunities.
