I've shadowed an MD for the last year for about 80 hours now. More specifically, he's a local pediatrician. I've gotten to know him quite well and have learned a lot about primary care medicine during this time.
Would this shadowing experience suffice for most DO schools, or would they require me to shadow a DO? I ask because a lot of DOs go into primary care or other types of frontline medicine after they get a degree, and that's what I want to do as well. I also love the philosophy behind DO (preventive medicine) and that's a big part of what pediatricians do.
