Has anyone had any luck finding DOs to shadow in Long Island? I have emailed/called almost all offices near me, but they have either not contacted me back or said they weren't available to shadow.
I've also contacted NYITCOM, but they told me that they now only allow shadowing by students of the DO school.

That's totally bizarre! I suggest that you contact the DO Faculty directly and see if there are some who can accommodate you.

Also, if you haven't done so, network. Talk to your own family doctor.

Or do some clinical volunteering, and then seek out the DOs.

Also remember than not all DO schools require a DO LOR. You can make do with an MD LOR.
