I got a LOR from someone in the department I'm interested in matching into. This attending has told me how good she thinks I am, and I believe she wrote me a great letter. I asked another attending within the same department to write me a letter, and she told me that she'd be glad to do it. I was about to give her all the info for the letter, but a colleague believes it's a bad idea to ask someone within the same department to get a letter from.
I personally think that getting more letters within the same department is a great idea.
What is the consensus here? Is it bad etiquette to ask another attending within the same department for a LOR, or is it a good idea?
