Hello everyone/anyone:
I am in a bit of a pickle. I will be the first doctor, let alone DO, to graduate in my family. I have submitted ltrs of recommendation with one more underway -- the one from a doctor but its a MD not a DO. I just completed my interview with NYCOM today and it was suggested that it might strengthen my profile if I have a personal letter of rec from a DO sent. Unfortunately, I do not know of any!! HELP!! I jumped online with American Osteopathic Association and found a few doctors in my area and in the field of study I am most interested in -- family practice. How do I ask or convince someone whom does not know me, except, perhaps for the briefest few moments when I introduce myslef, to write a personal letter of reference for me right away?? Please, HELP!!!
Thanks,
Cece
