Hi all,
I have shadowed an older (60s) podiatrist a few times now and was planning to ask him for an LOR. However, he recently met a new podiatrist trying to get into his practice from a foot and ankle clinic. This new podiatrist (early 30s) finished residency last year and wants me to shadow with him. He does various trauma/elective surgeries, and is the mentor for new residents at a few hospitals.
Both are fine writing an LOR for me, so my question is; should I get one from the young stud or the older DPM who is better known but has been out of the school aspect for a long time now? I feel there are pros and cons to both so I'm just looking for opinions. Unless I should get one from both but I didn't deem two necessary unless others have done that before to their advantage.
Thanks!
