Canadians, how did you find DOs to shadow?

[itswaypastmybedtime]

I'm curious how fellow Canadians found DOs to shadow? All the schools I want to apply to require a DO LOC and I am not sure how to go about finding DOs in my area (BC)??? Please help a sista out!

If you are interested in shadowing a DO in Canada, please contact [see email in link below]. You must attach your CV and provide an explanation of why you want to pursue a DO degree. Please note that due to the overwhelming amount of requests, we may not be able to accompany you immediately.

If you are near the border I would just go into the states and shadow for a day. I traveled to Buffalo from Toronto and it was only a day trip. I guess if you're near Vancouver, Seattle could work.

I was thinking of doing this, but beyond shadowing I am also interested in getting a reference letter from a DO so not sure how many hours I would have to put into shadowing to get that.

Just ask them. They'll write you one. No minimim required if you explain that you are Canadian and cannot regularly shadow, especially a DO.
