Firstly, I worked a PAYED position in an opthalmology clinic, which included many hours of scribing for the eye specialist. Would these hours be considered shadowing?
Secondly, I went on a volunteer mission in a 3rd world country in Africa this last summer involving opthalmologists. I had many roles, including scribing/assisting the physicians, performing duties of an opthalmic technician, as well as "scrubbing up" and watching numerous eye surgeries. Overall, I would consider this a volunteering experience, obviously. But could it also have some shadowing hours overlapped in there? If so, which volunteer roles would suffice as a shadowing experience?
Thanks for your input everyone!
