What is the common way to go about asking a doctor to be shadowed? Do you call them at their office? Do you shadow them at their office or at hospitals on rounds? Is it better to shadow under as many different specialties as I can for a broader scope, or is it better to just shadow under a few doctors for a more in depth learning of a few specialties? How many hours/days/week do you shadow - to show desire to learn without becoming a nuisance(hopefully)? I am 35 and am a little intimidated about asking somone to follow them around.
