for med school application, if you've volunteered for long time in hospital?
I'm abit skeptical that LORs from physicians that you've shadowed would provide enough insight on you. Shadowing experiences are passive in the sense that you're just observing the physician. I may be wrong, but it just seems to me that this setting doesn't allow for much evaluation. Does anyone agree with me on this?

It would be a rare physician (unless they are a family friend and thus ineligible) who would get to know you well enough to write a great letter that would demonstrate insight into your character, problem solving skills, and future potential.
uh.... yea you're gonna want a LOR from at least 1 doc who has some familiarity with you.
kinda a "duh" question.
Did not submit a letter from a physician.
