Hi everyone! I'm newly registered here, but have been a longtime lurker. I had the ability to read my LOR from a physician I shadowed overseas. The LOR to me seems really good, and I am not complaining whatsoever, however, it seems a little too generic and doesn't provide examples. I have a very close relationship with the doctor, and with your guys' input, I can hopefully have him add a few things. Please let me know.
I am writing to you in support of XX and her desire to attend medical school in the United States. I have had the pleasure of being XX's mentor for the duration of one month in XX. I have personally encountered many pre-medical students in my career, but few are as motivated and qualified to succeed as XX. XX shadowed me in the emergency room much more than was expected, and often accompanied me well into the evening. XX never hesitated to offer her time and effort during these intense periods, and was a joy to be with. XX is very knowledgeable and sharp-minded, and I have never had to doubt XX diligence, integrity, or willingness to learn in the field of medicine.
XX's abilities as a well-rounded individual go beyond shadowing. In addition to shadowing me, XX also dedicated time volunteering at the hospital. I am impressed of XX genuine interest in connecting with patients for the sake of personal experience. XX has a very professional bedside manner and my patients are very comfortable speaking with XX.
I would assess XX's emotional maturity as very good for her age, she has consulted with me on her previous experience in volunteering in the United States and XX, and was able to draw many parallels that create a fundamental ability to connect with individuals in the doctor-patient dynamic. I was also impressed on how XX handles stressful situations, XX was calm and collected, and provided comfort to the patient when they were otherwise distressed. XX is energetic, inquisitive, and self-motivated.
XX is well-respected by her peers, and is a team player. She is a natural fit into any group of intelligent, and highly motivated professionals, as XX mirrors these qualities.
XX has demonstrated determination and maintains all the necessary attributes that will ensure XX success in the medical field. I can assure you that XX will be a tremendous asset to your institution, and I recommend her without reservations.
Thank you 🙂
