I had a quick (probably dumb) question to ask about shadowing. The physicians in the area who are willing to have students shadow them, give their name/number/and most convenient times to shadow on a list that our Pre-Heath Advisor gives to students who have completed a certain number of course hours and maintained a certain GPA. The first physician I contacted is a Cardiologist, who would like for me to shadow on the 1st and 3rd wednesdays of the month, starting on the 3rd Wednesday of this March. I'm really excited to start with him, but I was really hoping to spend some of my spring break shadowing someone.
Would it be inappropriate to contact another physician about possibly shadowing them on the 2nd/4th wednesdays of the month with some possible extra days during Spring Break? Or should I just be happy with what the cardiologist is giving me?
Also, when he asked how long I wanted to shadow him for, he said that I'd get bored after a week or two, which I thought was sort of funny...although I hardly think it'll be true.
