DO Shadowing

[hopefullydoc117]

I an a non traditional applicant and have started considering DO schools after my advisor recommended it. I've worked in multiple social determinants focused jobs and have performed clinical research in that arena. However, I have not shadowed a DO and am having a really hard time finding someone. What are good approaches that have worked for people?

Google, "Doctors That Do", search for DO's in your area on their website, call and/or email a lot of them to see if they allow students to shadow. I'd try to shadow a DO who specializes in OMM.
