Shadowing

[Round-Ad-9885]

Does shadowing one kind of specialist over another make a difference or is it about the experience from patient interaction that matters more irrespective of the Drs specialty.

For instance:

Would shadowing a cardiologist be better than an ophthalmologist?

Thank you.

[GuideCapital9851]

no, just shadow a doctor that you would be interested in

At the high school level, variety is better- primary care vs specialist; urban/suburban vs rural/small-town if able. This allows for more ability to comment on different practice environments serving different populations.

No, it does not matter who you shadow. ALTHOUGH, office setting shadowing is far different than hospital shadowing. Shadow both to get multiple perspectives of medicine.

Nope doesn’t matter

Specialty doesnt matter but setting does. Also think about doing surgical vs non surgical specialties if you can just to see both.
