Hello everyone,
I'm an undergrad pre-med looking for doctors to shadow, and I'm a little frustrated when I've been looking around and researching the best way to go about this. I feel it would be most effective to politely email physicians stating that I'm an undergrad interested in shadowing, in their specialty, etc. and leaving my phone number and contact info if they are interested in accommodating me within their busy schedule. However, I'm having a lot of trouble finding physician email addresses - I can mainly only find office phone and fax numbers, even after looking on hospital directories and googling the names of many different physicians. Does anyone have advice for locating physician emails?
Also, does anyone have any experience faxing? I'm a little hesitant to cold call, so I was wondering if sending what I would have emailed, but through a fax number to the office (including my phone no. and email address) would be a better idea, or if they would tend to be ignored/thrown out?
Thank you!
