I tried all day to get shadowing opportunities at various clinics. I was hoping to actually get to see a doctor for a few minutes at least once--even though they are incredibly busy--but that didn't happen. I invariably got sent to Human Resources, where I was told that I'd be contacted in the future. This may or may not happen, as you all know.
I often get people telling me to simply contact my family physician to see if they can hook me up with some shadowing opportunities. So I got an appointment with her and asked if she knew any way that I could get some shadowing in and she said she'd let me know if anything came up. Well, that was like 1 month ago. So beyond simply getting an appointment with an FP, how else could I go about speaking to them directly?
I know I could get some opportunities if I could simply speak with doctors directly. How have you guys gone about ascertaining shadowing opportunities?
