Can one of my LOR's (a DO LOR) be from someone who would be considered a friend of the family and has known me since I was very young? Or would that be considered biased?
This particular friend does not live close to me currently. But I am shadowing other DO's. I just think maybe this "family friend" might write a better LOR than someone I have not known very long.
