Dear Mr. Ingham,

Thank-you very much for allowing me to be your job shadow on Monday. I know your time is valuable, and I thank-you for letting me experience a day in the life of a Physician Assistant. It was very helpful to me in making decisions for my future.

I enjoyed learning more about your job responsibilities and duties. I did not know that Physician Assistants had so many choices in the type of work they do. I also did not know that PA's prescribed medication. Also, your advice on choosing colleges and courses to take was extremely helpful. I made a note about the summer camp program you mentioned, and will look into it.

I was thrilled that you were able to take the time to answer my questions. I have a better understanding of the role of a Physician Assistant now. Thank-you very much for your guidance and assistance.

Sincerely,
Jesus H. Christ

Personalize it.

Handwritten is usually good idea (over typing it). I used cards (for thank-yous for my interviews). Just be personal, specific, but short and sweet.
