I have been trying to reach out to some physicians who work for the Health Services at my university, and this one physician practices Urgent Care during the regular semester but not very frequently. She now predominantly practices telemedicine and offered me to shadow her for a day and observe her attending calls. I don't know if this will be helpful as an experience but I think I can network with her and ask if she knows other physicians and also, this field sounds novel to me so if this experience won't hold me back as a competitive applicant I would definitely want to try it out. I would like to know what everyone thinks about it.

Won't hurt. Won't really help as an experience, but the networking could be very useful, so do it for that at the least and the opportunity to see something different.
Also, you'll get more info on the app process over in the pre-med forum.
