Hi!
I was finally able to get an opportunity to shadow a DO in my area. It's only 8 hours (one single day) but I am so excited and grateful for the opportunity, after getting rejection after rejection upon cold calling the offices. My question is, I would like to make the most out of this opportunity. The DO is excited to have me shadow her as well, she purposely booked 4 of her OMT patients on the day I shadow!
I know 1) to show up on time
2) to dress up business casual
3) not to be annoying or ask too many questions, although a few to show interest is fine
Do I have to bring my personal statement I have written for the application this cycle? or print out my resume, or CV just so that she's aware that I am academically capable? I am going to ask her if she would be willing to write me a letter of recommendation at the end of the day. Wait. Should I ask at the beginning of the shadowing?
Thanks for your help
