Hey all,
I've managed to pile up 20 hours of shadowing split between my PCP and a radiation oncologist but I'm having trouble finding other physicians to shadow. I've checked all my contacts and cold-called and cold-emailed dozens of physicians to no avail.
While I've read that ~50 hours is sufficient, I already have a shadowing experience that I plan to write about in a PS, I have ~700 hours of clinical experience, and I feel that my efforts would be better expended elsewhere. Should I continue seeking out shadowing opportunities anyway?
Thanks in advance.
