i did cancer research, pediatric office work / shadowing, heart surgery research / shadowing / observation, genetic medicine shadowing... and then dropped premed
my interest shifted from clinical medicine to health business / health policy
and now i will be a management consultant focusing on healthcare
i talked about how my healthcare experiences got me interested in the business and policy side of things, and several companies thought that was good enough...
moreover, to the above, hipaa doesn't make shadowing worthless at all; plenty of shadowing still goes on and is a useful resource to the potential physician
