How important is ranking in the hours for shadowing? I've shadowed 3 doctors but not for an extended period of time. I shadowed a neurosurgeon for 2 days- one in clinic and another in surgery. I've shadowed a D.O. (internal medicine) for a day and an ER doctor while I was volunteering at the ER. (He let me attend to the patients with him whenever I am there and he is on shift.)
So in total, I don't have many hours... and I am not sure how much that matters. Personally, I think the experience matters more than the time but of course- what admissions think may be a different story. What do you think? Should I find a doctor for extended hours- does it matter?
