Be sure to request a letter of recommendation from the physician you have shadowed. Many schools prefer or even require a letter from a physician. While completing your medical school application, be sure to include your shadowing experiences.
Prepare for the visit. Talk with educators who wish to shadow to clarify purposes. Send materials that can be read and discussed before the visit. Custom design the visit as needed. Alert the schools staff and students about the visit. Select students who will host shadows.
Yes, securing documentation of your shadowing experience can be valuable, especially when applying to medical school. A signed letter from the doctor or a confirmation email stating the hours and nature of your experience can serve as proof.
Introduce yourself, explain your professional interests, and communicate what you hope to gain from a job shadow experience. Make your job shadow request several weeks in advance of when you hope to shadow so the person you are asking has time to add you to his or her schedule.
Work shadowing involves observing a professional in their place of work to gain a better understanding of the role. As it brings a job to life, students and graduates often use job shadowing to get a taste for a particular career.

Medical job shadowing falls under the term clinical experience as it involves following and observing a physician, nurse, or other healthcare professional while they conduct their daily work activities in a clinical or hospital setting.
Be sure to record the name of the professional you are shadowing, their preferred contact information, the date you started and completed the experience, how many hours you shadowed. Also write down what you observed, what you learned about the profession, patients and yourself.
When you write your resume, include bullet points with hard numbers to illustrate the scope of your experience. For example, if you shadowed a medical professional, mention how many surgeries you watched being performed or how many patients you and the doctor you shadowed attended to per day.
