You can put it down as research, but you can talk about the patient interaction aspects of it too. So yes in that sense it can count as clinical experience. N = 1, but I know someone who had only shadowing and clinical research as his avenues of clinical experience and he had no trouble getting interviews/acceptances.

It always helps to have some volunteering though.

Quality, not quantity. You can elaborate more about how this one position gave you experience with research, patient interaction, and other clinical competencies in your personal statement and/or secondaries. For the sake of the application, I would just list it once.

Bolded for emphasis. Only list it once, and since it was a paid clinical research position, I think you can list it as either "Paid-Clinical" or "Research". Personally, I would list it as the latter since those extra curricular activities are conversation starters, and from there you can talk about your patient interactions/development etc...

This is true for AMCAS, butt TMDSAS directs one to list an activity under all categories that pertain. If you are not applying to Texas schools, then whichever one you pick, you can make the second important component clear through the title you give the activity, not just your description.
