Summer Shadowing Opportunities

Just thought of this and it was too good not to share.

Finding shadowing opportunities can be tough if you lack a social network that includes a lot of physicians. Your state AHEC is probably a great place to look if you don't have any nearby free clinics or teaching hospitals that will take you in.

1) Google "AHEC + your state"
2) From that page, navigate to the regional office closest to you (i.e. "Central Nebraska; Southern Florida")
3) Find the "student opportunities" tab
4) Most of the states I've looked at specifically mention college student shadowing. If not, call the individual regional offices and ask.

I keep getting sent to an AHEC website about quitting tobacco 🙁.

Can you help me navigate this, I live in Palm Beach County, Florida

Yeah that's kind of weird. I'd email their "info@... address and see what you get." Maybe that particular center only does tobacco stuff, but I doubt it.

Might have to drive...

This website is horrible, but I'd contact the recruitment guy: http://www.fkahec.org/contact.html
