If I have been practicing as a GP for several years after dental school but decide that I want go back to specialize in endodontics, where / how would I get 3 letters of recommendation?
I had no interest in specializing while in dental school, and so I never participated in research or built any close relationships with faculty members or endodontists. Just kept my head down and got through school at the time. Most endo residencies require 3 letters of rec, but I have no idea where to go about getting these from at this point.
Should I shadow local endodontists on my days off? That's the only thing I can really think of for getting to know specialists for LOR's. Any other recommendations for getting letters?
I did have good grades in dental school, and was in the top 30% of my class.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!
