Hey Guys.
Got a question. This summer I got a job as an OR Tech (I actually don't have a job title, just this fits the best). Basically, my job will consist of helping prep patients to go into the operating room, assisting with anything needed in the operating rooms (most retractor holding), and helping moniter patients post-op. I start training next week and it is a PRN postion. However, this is pretty much the only clinical experience I have going into the next application cycle. Will this be enough or will I catch flak from the adcoms for not having enough. I know I want to be a doctor, i've been around the field my whole life (my dad works in risk management) and i've seen what doctors do. Any advice you guys have would be great.
